This is my exact stance on not only Ferrell but Jim Carrey, their "funny guy" schtick just makes me cringe but in a "serious" role they're GREAT.

Carry definitely has good options too, The Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, and I don't think he went all funny guy in The Number 23, I recall I enjoyed it but very litte else about it.

Edit: Oh of course Truman Show but that goes without saying.

In that vein, Uncut Gems with Adam Sandler. Great performance, but if you have anxiety issues you might want to skip it, it's a bit of a rough watch. But you should definitely watch his acceptance speech for a Film Independent Spirit award.
