When this first came out in 1994, wild horses couldn't drag me to the theater to see it. Why? Preconceived notions. Thank goodness for Cable TV, or I never would have seen this film. I like it, it makes me laugh.

This is not a masterpiece. This is not an academy award winning film, not a film of strategic plots, this is as sophomoric as it gets -- and that's fine with me. Sometimes, ya gotta escape. This'll do it.

The title says it all. Jeff Daniels and Jim Carrey are perfect for their roles, every time I watch this film uncut, I am laughing. I was always thinking, "How dumb can you get?" And in the next frame it gets dumber.

This is one of those films you just have fun with. Either you like this kind of humor or you don't. But the world is in such turmoil, this is a welcomed, stupid, silly, break that hits just the right spot. I find it "stupid-funny" beyond belief.

This movie is so stupid to the point it's brilliant. One of Jim Carey's best performances.

They might be dumb, but they sure are funny. I think what really makes the movie come to life, besides the superb acting performance of Jim Carrey and Jeff Daniels, is that the jokes feel genuine and innocent instead of overdone and forced. In one way or another it is easy to relate to some of what the poor guys go through. As the movie goes on it gets better and better. Overall great performance and funny jokes.

Dumb and Dumber is so stupid, it's brilliant....The dumb humor and wonderful acting from Jim Carrey and Jeff Daniels are so well layed-out, and so well told, that this rates up as good tasteless comedy. This movie is not for everyone though, a silly mood, and a taste for bathroom humor is required to sit through this, but if you qualify you're in for a major treat. ****

The Farrelly brothers, Bobby and Peter, made their big break into filmmaking with this memorable vehicle for the talented Jim Carrey and Jeff Daniels. Here, the Farrellys were able to establish a formula for their movies involving crude, absurdist humour and outlandish situations. Thought-provoking, intellectual entertainment is FAR from their goal, but Farrelly brothers movies like "Dumb and Dumber" work just fine in an undemanding way that doesn't tax anybody's brains. There are certainly some very notable bits and lines of dialogue throughout, plus two very enthusiastic performances by Carrey and Daniels.

The two of them play Lloyd and Harry, two utter morons who can't hold on to jobs or go for long without screwing up. Then, one day, limo driver Lloyd drives the lovely Mary (Lauren Holly, Carrey's real-life girlfriend at the time) to the airport. She leaves behind a suitcase, and it becomes Lloyds' mission to return it to her and win her love. What Lloyd and Harry don't know is that the suitcase contains a fortune in ransom money, and the lowlife who was demanding the money is understandably NOT happy about what develops.

There are a couple of capable actors & actresses in supporting roles - Mike Starr, Charles Rocket, Felton Perry, the comic Harland Williams (who tends to fare better when he's not the star of a movie), Victoria Rowell, etc. Veteran comic actress Teri Garr is utterly wasted playing Mary's stepmother, however. Making a very funny cameo as a redneck named Sea Bass is hockey player Cam Neely, and Lin Shaye, who became a repertory player in the Farrellys' next two pictures, appears briefly.

At the least, you can say that a movie like this DOES live up to its title. And this viewer had a pleasant time revisiting it, and laughing at some of the ridiculous dialogue. "I got robbed by a sweet old lady on a motorized cart, and didn't even see it coming." Carrey and Daniels do share an excellent chemistry, and do appear to be having a great time; they're believable as best buds.

Overall, good fun, beginning and ending in just the right way to demonstrate how clueless our protagonists are.

Followed by an animated series, a prequel, and a sequel.

Seven out of 10.

Dumb and Dumber is a stupid movie, but what some people don't understand is that is what it is supposed to be! It's about two completely pathetic, dumb, and hopeless guys who do nothing but make complete fools of themselves. Jim Carrey and Jeff Daniels give the greatest comedic performances and form the best duo that has ever graced a screen. Every scene, every sentence they speak, and every body movement is pure genius. The way that each of them deliver their lines makes this movie an all time classic that will never get old. I never understood how someone could not like this movie. The only explanation I could have is they think they are too "intelligent" for a "dumb movie" like this. What they don't even understand that it's not the jokes or gags that make this movie so great, it is all in the performances. To those of you who do not like this movie please give it another try and watch Jim Carrey and Jeff Daniels play the roles that they were meant to play.

The purpose of a comedy is to make you laugh, and there is a moment in "Dumb and Dumber" that made me laugh so loudly I embarrassed myself. I just couldn't stop. It's the moment involving the kid who gets the parakeet. But because I know that the first sentence of this review is likely to be lifted out and reprinted in an ad, I hasten to add that I did not laugh as loudly again, or very often. It's just as well. If the whole movie had been as funny as that moment, I would have required hospitalization. The movie is more silliness from Jim Carrey, who is beginning to grow on me. It's strange. His mannerisms, instead of becoming more wearisome from film to film, grow more endearing. I hated him in "Ace Ventura: Pet Detective," enjoyed him in "The Mask," and felt positively fond of him here. He plays a limousine driver whose roommate (Jeff Daniels) runs a dog-grooming service, although business is bad for both of them and they live in a dump. After developments that will be familiar to students of sitcom and other formula comedy, Carrey and Daniels find themselves heading west in their dogmobile (a van that looks like a shaggy dog). For Jeff Daniels, the role is a departure from his usual deadpan comedy roles and straight drama. He fits right in. The relationship between the two guys creates a lot of the fun, as they discuss their grim lifestyle and their bizarre plans to improve it. The elements are here for a better movie, and Jim Carrey, I am now convinced, is a true original. In "The Mask," he had the screenplay and production to back him up. Here, the filmmaking is more uncertain.

In my opinion the greatest comedy ever made! Daniels and Carrey work magic together in this film that more than 20 years later is finally considered a classic. When it first came out it was labeled as complete garbage and toilet humour. But to those people I say it is the best garbage and toilet humour you could ask for. What do you expect to see when the title of the film is ''Dumb and Dumber''. The quick back and forth between the two lead actors and not so subtle chirping often goes unnoticed because your'e laughing so hard from the previous scene.the jokes and dialogue are so good and Carey and Daniels deliver them with such authenticity. It's because of this reason that I am able to watch this movie countless times and still be entertained, as I listen to funny remarks that I missed on the previous 100 viewings. What's truly great about this film is that even people who say they hate it will always without fail crack a laugh or two when re-watching it. They just don't want to admit that they find this nonsense to be funny...but it is. More than 20 years later and I still have not seen a buddy comedy that comes close to matching it.

I thought this was one of the funniest comedy movie of all time when it first came out. It's a bit outdated now and just not as funny as I remembered it. But it still works and the dumb elements didn't really get to the point where it's more annoying than it actually being funny. Jim Carrey gags are getting old now, but I could tell why it was such a hit back in the 90's. This has got to be one of the best duo to be in a comedy flick. If you like immature and yet at least somewhat amusing comedy, this one is most definitely worth a watch. While watching this for the 3rd time after a long period of not seeing it. I got a few chuckles out of it, but didn't find it all that funny. But I give credit for the comedic value when it first came out. I mean that laxative joke has been used over and over again after this movie. I am not sure if they are the pioneers of that joke, but they sure made it a hit in comedy flick to come afterwards. This is most definitely one of the movies that kick started Jim Carrey's career.

7.2/10

This movie goes from joke to joke constantly and never misses a beat. I could not stop laughing the first time I saw it, and the tenth time I saw it, and the hundredth time I saw it. This movie never gets old. There is not one single dull moment. The movie takes off and never lets up, not even enough to let you breathe. There is something absolutely mesmerizing and hilarious about Jim Carrey and Jeff Daniels' performances as the lovable idiots Lloyd Christmas( Jim Carrey) and Harry Dunne (Jeff Daniels).

The movie starts out in Providence, Rhode Island with two guys who are down on their luck. They've just lost their jobs, are late on the gas bill(again), and make the best of a bad situation by returning a briefcase they've recovered to its rightful owner, an attractive woman named Mary (Lauren Holly). And Lloyd(Carrey), has fallen madly in love with Mary after driving her to the airport. It just so happens that Mary lives all the way across the country, in Aspen, Colorado (or is it California?) Sure its crazy and stupid, but they've got nothing to lose, so they take off in their 84' sheepdog. And let's face it, if we were them, we'd go too.

Dumb and Dumber was not pretentious, the actors never made you feel like they were in on the joke. No, they played it with a straight face the whole way through, and that's really the best way to do comedy. Even when they aren't speaking, their body language alone is enough to elicit huge laughs. The reactions and facial expressions are perfect.

The film wasn't warmly received by a lot of critics, but only because they couldn't lower their snouts long enough to realize that this was not another movie about dumb guys, but really a film about earnest guys. And they are pathetically funny just being themselves. They play stupid games in the car to pass the time, and sing aloud to keep from getting bored, and have crazy dreams of one day opening up a worm store.

The movie plays out with a high spirit and feel good attitude that can't be matched. And the soundtrack is perfect; it really sets the tone and never feels out of place.

Really, truly, without a doubt, the best comedy ever made. I will treasure this movie forever, and even when I watch it the 101st time, I know it'll make me laugh... and laugh... and laugh till it hurts.

The film is well paced and has a spontaneous nature that lacks in most comedies. Behind all the stupidness, there is a real glow of brilliance. The fact is, more than all the goofiness and crazy antics, "Dumb and Dumber" is a film full of smarts, and that's what we end up admiring the most.

An amusing and entertaining film about two odd and moronic guys . The picture narrates the various pranks , mayhem, mischiefs , frolics and lots of mugging carried out by the outlandish couple . This one will definitively not appeal to the stuffy critic or arthouse snob. An offbeat story of sex-minded people , dealing with brainless youthful and made with total craziness. The movie talks upon the adventures and misfortunes of two no-brain , quirk youngsters , Harry (Jeff Daniels) and Lloyd (Jim Carrey) . They are idiot pals who are continuously doing jokes and seeing lustfully by the opposite sex . Both of whom travel in a strange Sheep dog Van from Rhode Island to Aspen , Colorado to return a briefcase full of cash to gorgeous socialite (Lauren Holly) . Along the way they attempt to solve problems without success . The average person uses 10% of their brain capacity. Imagine what he could do with 1%. What the one doesn't have, the other is missing. If they each had half a brain, together they would still only have half a brain. For Harry and Lloyd every day is a no-brainer.

This funny film mingles irony , chuckles , giggles , dirty comedy , numerous sex jokes all sorts of gross-out humor and bodily function . And of course , there's very bad taste , being the extreme when happen the incrediblely embarrassing scenes on the crap in the bathroom . It will provide full of laughters , nevertheless ridiculously rendered , for everyone else . Jim Carrey mugs shamelessly and Daniels proves a convincing dimwit sidekick . The comedy is cheesy and gross-out but has some nice moments here and there . The film is an embarrassing and absurd mess , the plot is ridiculous and silly , being formed by several humor set pieces , though quite a few absurd and disagreeable , at times . There are some steamy hot scenes and some memorable and hilarious happenings of dirty humor which will rejoice the rogue aficionados to these kinds of things . Neither the players , nor the filmmaking seem to be extraordinary, and the storyline is utterly non-sense , but , curiously , it has some amusing moments and I found myself laughing in some times of the movie . The film benefits itself from two sympathetic starring : Jim Carrey , Jeff Daniels who are great comedy actors . Along with a pretty good secondary cast , such as : Teri Garr, Mike Starr , Karen Duffy , Charles Rocket , Harland Williams , Felton Perry , Lin Shaye . The motion picture was professionally directed by Peter and Bobby Farrelly, though it has several flaws , gaps and bad taste . Occasional ¨Seinfeld¨ writers Peter and Bobby Farrely make their directorial debut . Following a long string of hits , such as : Kingpin , The Heartbreak Kid , Shallow Hal , Osmosis Jones , Me, Myself and Irene , Green Book , among others.

Followed by a below average prequel regarding their adolescence , an awful turkey , bottom of barrel movie titled ¨Dumb and dumber : When Harry met Lloyd¨2003 , made without solvency dealing with the beginning their acquaintance , starred by Eric Christian Olsen, Derek Richardson , and their parents : Mimi Rogers and Luis Guzman , in addition , Rachel Nichols , Eugene Levy , William Lee Scott , Shia Labeouf and Lin Shaye was the only cast member to star in both the original Dumb and Dumber . Furthermore , ¨Dumb and Dumber To (original title) 2014 with Jim Carrey , Jeff Daniels , Laurie Holden , Rachel Melvin , Kathleen Turner , Bill Murray.

Dumb and Dumber is a 1994 buddy comedy that follows two not very bright friends who set off on a cross country trip to return a briefcase to a lady that one of them has a crush on.

Written and directed by the Farrelly brothers, this is an absolutely silly movie that will make you continuously shake your head while making you laugh your butt off at the same time. Jim Carrey and Jeff Daniels star together as two of the most ridiculous characters ever created, in a story that is goofy, original, and fun. It's filled to the brim with hilarious moments and great comedy that will have you coming back again and again.

This is a great film, and a must see for any comedy fan. If you haven't seen this before, I would highly recommend checking it out.

I realize I'm in the minority by not being a gushing fan of potty humor and a lot of scatological and very graphic sound effects, but DUMB AND DUMBER is definitely a movie that clicked with its targeted audience. And I can't ignore the fact that JIM CARREY and JEFF DANIELS have the ability to mug with the best of them, both showing lots of dexterity with comic material that they play to the hilt.

But the film is a series of sight and sound gags more than a tightly constructed plot and it's just a matter of time before the Beavis and Butt-head type of guys driving cross country to return a valuable suitcase to its pretty owner (LAUREN HOLLY) would drive any normal person insane with their stupidity.

The joke with the state trooper is probably the low point of all the tasteless humor, but here too, I'm sure I'm in the minority. Seems to be the highlight for others inclined to view potty humor as nothing more than harmless fun.

If this sort of low comedy appeals to you, it's a funfest of crude jokes and imbecilic humor. It's either a comic masterpiece or a dud of titanic proportions, depending on your point of view.

Carrey won a "Razzie" award as worst new star--although I don't agree with that designation at all. He's obviously a hyperactive, manic personality who can give Robin Williams a run for his money--and Daniels, too, is a talented chap. But I just wish they had a script more worthy of their peculiar talents.

Before I saw this movie, I regarded Jim Carrey as the most overpaid, overhyped goofball in Hollywood. After I saw this movie, I had very different thoughts about him. He plays his role as a simpleminded, innocent schmuck in his movie to perfection. Plus, he isn't a shouting screeching moron as in the Ace Ventura films or Cable Guy or a "serious" person as in Liar Liar or The Truman Show. Being a huge fan of "older" comedy movies (pre-1990s) a lot of the funny films today just don't compare to the ones of the past but this film is a HUGE exception. With the year 2000 breathing down our necks, I think it's safe for me to give this movie the "Best Comedy Of The 90's" award. On a final note, this movie kinda makes you feel all good inside as well. Think about it: two dumb morons who are plagued by bad luck all throughout their life just say "screw this" and drive across the country to Aspen to give a beautiful girl back her briefcase while encountering many perils along the way. Once in Aspen, the perils and the fortunes just keep piling up. The movie does have a sad ending in a way but hey, they're making a sequel so there's no need to pity Lloyd and Harry too much. Rent this movie right now.

For a purposely stupid and dumb movie, it's absolutely perfect. There's an actual story line with sincerely funny lines and moments. It's an absolute timeless classic comedy.

Saw it a hundred times, and from crying in laughter to making your stomach hurt from laughing so hard, it is one of the funniest movies of all time. Caught it again recently for the over one hundredth time and tried to view it as an older skeptic, and I laughed even harder at scenes that originally were not as funny as the funniest ones. It's just an infallible, brilliant comedy that pushes the envelope just enough without going too far like some recent imitator movies of it have done.

It's just nonstop laughs, incredible editing and pacing to never stop being funny, and once you think you've seen the funniest scenes, it just keeps getting funnier and delivering all the way up to the end and epilogue. This is imo easily the funniest movie ever made, and nothing really comes close to it. It's hard to believe, but it actually has a good, coherent backstory plot too, which also allows the supporting cast to shine in their minor comedy roles as well while making the story actually make sense. It never gets old.

9/10

I feel like an idiot for liking this movie, but I do. I normally can't stand brainless gross-out comedies, but this one I found just twisted and edgy enough to make me laugh.

Unlike most fans, however, I didn't find Jim Carrey all that funny. As with ACE VENTURA (which I hated), he bugs his eyes, waves his arms, screams, flails, and seems to think he's simply hilarious, when he's actually little more than amusing (if not a tad annoying).

The highlight of this movie is Jeff Daniels. He's done comedy before, but never this broad, as he usually plays the straight man to someone else. Here, though, he turns in a brilliant comic performance that blows Carrey off the screen. The infamous diarrhea scene could have simply been nothing more than a gross potty humor joke for eight year olds, but Daniels turns it into a slapstick masterpiece that would make Peter Sellers and Blake Edwards proud.

Unfortunately, the success of this movie (and Daniels' newfound popularity because of it) led him to star in such lame-brained romps as TRIAL AND ERROR, 101 DALMATIONS and MY FAVORITE MARTIAN. Hopefully he'll get back on track and do some real acting again. But DUMB AND DUMBER, like it or not, will forever be one of his very best performances.

One of the funniest comedies ever made, if not the funniest. Unlike other comedies which often have long moments of waiting between the jokes, this one will keep you hooked from the beginning to the end. Ratings always tend to be lower for comedies, which I think is unfair. If you're looking for high-class content or an outstanding cinematic experience, pick a classic film. If you want to laugh, pick this one. I voted it 10/10. 'nuff said.

For all of you that say this movie is not funny, you must be crazy, this is the best comedy ever, with the best performances in the careers for daniels and jim carrey if you haven't seen this movie yet go out right now and movie i promise it wont dissapoint

This is one of those films you can watch, and actually laugh at for a time or two, but after that, it's just not funny anymore.

For a first viewing, this flick will deliver some genuine belly laughs, although you will feel your intelligence slip, as you enjoy it. Watch this one only for the chuckles. If you watch it for any other reason, you're watching the wrong movie.

One of Carrey's better performances. His earlier works are far better, comedically, than are his later works. I like the genre change he seems to be experimenting with of late, and I hope it does something to rejuvenate the quality of his performances. Either way, this is quite entertaining, if only for a few run-throughs.

It rates a 5.5/10 from...

the Fiend :.

It's hard to find a Farrley's Brother which isn't funny, and this is even harder to classify as, 'not funny'...because it is the funniest!

Jim Carrey and Jeff Daniels team up as the not just odd, but strange, weird and mentally disabled couple.

After losing both of their jobs on the same day, Lloyd (Carrey), who retrieved a bag which a woman he drove to the airport leaves in the terminal, encourages his friend Harry to come with him to Aspen where the girl flew to. They think that the gas company is after them since they didn't pay their bill, but is actually the kidnappers of Mary (Holly)'s husband, who were supposed to pick up the money where she left it in the airport terminal.

From their start in Rhode Island, until they arrive in Aspen, the kidnappers follow Harry (Daniels)and Lloyd, along the road. The script is the most well-written comedy I think ever, because every thing that they do in the movie, leads to something new and funny that ends up happening to them later on.

Their are more than a few funny scenes, and the dialogue is always right-on.

I would recommend it to anyone who enjoys Farrley Brothers' movies, or anyone who likes Jim Carrey. It's a hilarious comedy and the two stars were perfectly casted, especially Jim Carrey, of course.

And now, an excerpt from the film,

"Skies, huh?" "That's right." "They yers?" "Yup." "Both of them?"

"Dumb and Dumber" is a film that was fabulously successful. Although it cost $17,000,000, it ended up grossing $247,000,000!! Talk about a huge payoff for the Farrelly Brothers!

The story is about Lloyd and Harold (Jim Carrey and Jeff Daniels)--two complete idiots who are roommates. When a passenger in Lloyd's limo leaves a briefcase behind, he vows to return it to her. There are two huge problems with this. First, this occurred in Rhode Island and she now is in Aspen! Second, although Lloyd thought she left it by accident, it was ransom money...and now he and Harold have it and mobsters are after them!

Much of the humor was stupid--the sort of stuff middle school kids would love. However, I must admit that although much of the humor was awful, sometime is still made me laugh. Plus, the film ended well. So, I do recommend it BUT must point out that it is NOT for anyone wanting cleverness. Nope...crude humor, bad jokes and embarrassing moments...that's what you'll find and you, too, might laugh a bit like I did.

By the way, for the love of God, do NOT watch the sequel "Dumb and Dumberer". None of the original writers, directors or actors are in it and it is a total bomb....and currently is on IMDB's notorious Bottom 100 list.

Jim Carrey was one of the first diagnosed sufferers of ANTS (Absolutely No Talent Syndrome, a disease that exploded onto the Hollywood scene the day Sylvester Stallone got famous and has been devastating the community ever since), but this movie is bad even for him. In fact it's so bad it's almost worth watching. On second thoughts no it isn't.

The Dumb and Dumber here really ought to be the writer/director brothers who are responsible for this pile of unadulterated bat guano. Who gives the Farrellys money to make movies, and why aren't they heavily sedated in secure accommodation?
