You answered your own question here.

Truman was funnier, it had more trademark Carrey, for better or worse. It wasn't a straight drama.

The Majestic had to fight a war on two fronts. 1: Carrey fans are likely to hate it because they're largely used to lowbrow comedy. 2: Drama fans are going to hate it because they're carrying a stereotype of Carrey in terms of low-brown humour.
