Critics Consensus

There's Something About Mary proves that unrelentingly, unabashedly puerile humor doesn't necessarily come at the expense of a film's heart.

Manohla Dargis

L.A. Weekly

If the Farrellys don't know yet how to arrange a group of actors in a shot, they do know how to exploit [their cast] to the fullest, and how to push a joke to its breaking point; their taste is as bad as their timing is exquisite.

If the sight of a large chunk of a man's private parts caught in the teeth of a zipper is funny -- and I'm not saying it isn't -- then have I got a movie for you.

This one is dumbest. And funniest, as if that matters even a little bit!

There's Something About Mary earns its spot as one of the funniest comedy movies ever made.

Vague Visages

What begins as a seemingly lightweight romantic comedy gradually expands into a surprisingly sophisticated exploration of romantic obsession and self-delusion.

Who would have guessed that the brothers who created the stupid gross-out comedy film “Dumb and Dumber” would be able to change tracks and make an enjoyable, yet still gross, motion picture?

Rated: 3.5/4

Seemed very low budget, embarassing tacky 'dog prop', completely unfunny. My friend and I left after 20 minutes, should have left after 5.

Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars

What starts as unapologetically crass comedy is grounded in surprising sincerity, hitting the perfect balance. Jonathan Richman’s on-screen musical interludes deliver a sharp, offbeat wit that makes it unforgettable.
