The Mask (1994)

The Mask which I felt was a really interesting film when released in 1994 helped produce exaggerated animation actions that were mainly only seen on cartoons such as Road Runner.

The image above gives a good example of where CGI would be used in the film and it worked nicely based on the character's traits.

Though with the use of CGI, the directors could create a surrealistic effect that allowed Jim Carrey's face to be stretched digitally and still look good.
They also used CGI to create superhuman abilities that the Mask gave to the character such as flexibility and speed. The comedic tone of the film helped make these effects work without being unappealing.
