Dumb & dumberer - quand Harry rencontra Lloyd

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.

I saw this movie with my cousin at a nine o'clock showing on the first day it was released. We expected nothing of it, and we were not disappointed. The best part was Bob Sagat screaming "there's sh*t everywhere", at the time I commented how prophetic that line was. I just don't understand how they could make this movie and throw feces all over the memory of the first one. The only thing the movie had going for it was that the two guys who played Lloyd and Harry looked like Jim Carrey and Jeff Daniels if you kinda squinted and turned your head at the right angle. Oh yea, and when we left that movie so brain damaged us we forgot where we parked and spent 5 minutes looking for his car.

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.

This is absolutely the worse movie I've EVER seen. I can't believe it was even produced. Watching this move used up quality time that I could have been using to watch the wind blow instead. Actually, I did this quite a bit anyway while watching this at the drive-in. Don't pay to see this -- it'll probably be on network television very soon.

Was this movie necessary!? This is a truly terrible film, woefully unfunny to the extreme. Jim Carrey and Jeff Daniels were excellent in the first film and in a different league to the two actors in the roles as the young Harry and Lloyd (the guy cast as Lloyd does look like Carrey, except for the blue eyes). If there was ever going to be another film about these two characters it should have been a sequel starring the original pairing, instead we get this stinker. Dumb and Dumber hardly had an Oscar winning story line but gave us some great characters and a hatful of ball bouncingly funny gags, in the 'prequel' the weak story collapses under the weight of even weaker jokes! So uninspired is this movie that there are even rehashes of jokes from the original, just done slightly differently but in a totally inept manner. Dumb and Dumber is a classic, this is a pile of steaming doggy doo doo's. Do yourself a favour stick with the Carrey film and avoid this limp fish at all costs.
