Dumb and Dumberer: When Harry Met Lloyd

Maybe I am just a caring person, but I thought this movie was overall not funny and insulting to special ed kids. It's one thing to make a brief reference (as was done in "Agent Cody Banks"), but this movie was just over the top. Do the producers not know that special ed kids have their own feelings? I have worked with some and know that they enjoy movies...but they probably hate this one. This could have been a lot better if they had left the special ed jokes out. Profanity was moderate, sexual content was there, but the special ed jokes outweigh all of those. Do NOT show this to a special ed kid. They will be insulted.

(-1000/10)

Very rarely do I see a movie that totally disgusts me, and this movie did just that. The original "Dumb and Dumber" was funny because Daniels and Carrey weren't trying to act as stupid as possible, their characters were just dumb and didn't realize it.

In this "film," (and I use the term loosely) the poop jokes abound, the characters are just plain stupid, and nothing is funny. Cheri Oteri and Eugene Levy look like they wish they were somewhere else the whole time, as does Luis Guzman as Lloyd's father. The actors who play Harry and Lloyd just try too hard and the whole movie falls flat. And I can't even remember what the "plot" was about. Who dragged Bob Saget into this thing? Was it just so he could say sh*t during every scene he was in?

This "prequel" should have been forgotten about altogether. We didn't need to see how Harry met Lloyd, it was a lot funnier meeting up with them in adulthood and going from there.

I'm giving this movie absolutely no stars at all because there isn't a single redeeming quality about the movie, period.

People judge this movie too harshly because it's a prequel to a beloved movie. Yes, the original Dumb & Dumber is far better. Of course it is. No one expected this movie to surpass the original. I honestly think they did a pretty good job. A good number of jokes landed for me and the actors did a great job of portraying what I think a young Harry and Lloyd would act like. They do a better job playing the characters and the actual same actors did in the sequel "Dumb and Dumber To". This movie is way better than that one in my opinion.

Overall, not nearly as bad as people say and deserves more credit. 6/10.

...or how to make a comedy without a laugh?

When I first heard that there's a sequel to Dumb and Dumber I was ecstatic since this was the best comedy in ninenties and certainly one of the best comedies ever. But after seeing opening credits (No Jim & Jeff), I was a little sceptical. Never mind, it still can be good...

Erghh, wrong. The movie was getting worse and worse. The leading characters were shown like a couple of retards (very unlikable, since in original there aren't THAT slow), who were just trying to imitate Jim Carrey and Jeff Daniels and failed miserably. Lack of charm, i guess. But the main fault goes to script writer who provides a lot of already seen jokes as the rest of the producers of this crap.

I agree, it would be nearly impossible to beat the original version, since it was full of original black humor, but hey, at least they could try harder. Despite that movie sucked, it has some moments...but since i can't remember any if them, i couldn't rate it higher than

3 out of 10.

While browesing through my local Blockbuster I was looking for a movie to watch in my car on the way to Long Island. Unfortuanetly I picked Dumb and Dumberer. I had heard that it was bad, but I figured, "reviewers are wrong all the time, and besides I loved Dumb and Dumber."

Dumb and Dumberer is set back in the 1980's when Harry and Lloyd first meet eachother. Step 1: If your going to make a movie set in the 80's don't be waving around NEW five dollar bills. Step 2: Why ruin the first movie by making a dispicable prequel.

This movies humor is very much 2nd Grade. If you get a kick at of hearing Bob Saget say SH*T a billion time's then sure go watch this movie. Another that made me mad was how really dumb they were. At least in Dumb and Dumber they had some sense of common sense. In the prequel there is not one inkling of common sense. It almost makes you want to hurt yourself over how dumb they are.

The only good thing about this movie was Eugene Levy. As always he was histerical. Without him this movie would have been 2 inexperienced actors, literally walking around like a bunch of retards.

Bottom line: F+ (with out Eugene Levy) F
