Dumb & Dumber Reviews
It isn’t nonstop hilarity; there are quite a few dead spots. But I liked it a lot.
| Original Score: B | Aug 31, 2022
The teaming and the formula are often copied but rarely matched.
| Original Score: 9/10 | Sep 11, 2020
What makes this fantasy of anti-social behaviour so painfully funny, is the gulf between etiquette and vulgarity, the desire to be a child whooping it up in the adult world.

You cannot deny a laugh, and Dumb and Dumber has plenty.
| Original Score: 3/4 | Aug 23, 2017
...a modern classic of the comedy genre...
| Original Score: 3/4 | Nov 18, 2014
The plot, of course, is merely an excuse for an endless series of gags, and the percentage of them that score is fairly high.

From the puns to the slapstick to the toilet, Dumb and Dumber is performed at such a high level that it transcends many of its influences.

Easily one of the funniest (and most quotable) movies ever made...

The caviar of low-brow, gross-out comedy.
| Original Score: 4/5 | Jan 2, 2011
The Farrellys' knack for stupid, Three Stooges-esque comedy writ larger by an infusion of heart excels with the complementary screen teaming of manic Jim Carrey and consummate screen actor Jeff Daniels. [Blu-ray]
| Original Score: 3/4 | Jan 8, 2009
...it tickles the funny bone often enough to merit serious consideration among lowbrow comedies.
| Original Score: 6/10 | Dec 18, 2008
[Featrues] a plethora of memorable scenes.
| Original Score: 4/5 | Apr 28, 2008
Dumb and Dumber, which features Carrey and Jeff Daniels as nitwits traveling cross-country, is a frayed string of gags posing as a movie. Carrey, though, does literal-minded doofdom with peerless enthusiasm.
| Original Score: B- | Apr 28, 2008
This gleefully lowbrow film is best enjoyed by the young, and by those who can still laugh at the passing of gas.
| Original Score: 3/4 | Apr 28, 2008
The wholeheartedness of this descent into crude and rude humor is so good-natured and precise that it's hard not to partake in the guilty pleasures of the exercise.
| Apr 28, 2008
Gross to the max but very funny, this succeeds through energy, ingenuity and -- against all the odds -- the charm of its dopey leads.
| Apr 28, 2008
This is a long way from the social comedy of Jerry Lewis. The characters here are ultimately turned into punching bags or punch-line dispensers.
| Apr 28, 2008
Well titled and, for its purpose, a total success.

Gone are the days of John Belushi, where rudeness was raised to an art form.
