Director: Peter Farrelly
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]
...it tickles the funny bone often enough to merit serious consideration among lowbrow comedies.
[Featrues] a plethora of memorable scenes.
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.
Top CriticThis gleefully lowbrow film is best enjoyed by the young, and by those who can still laugh at the passing of gas.
Top CriticThe 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.
Top CriticGross to the max but very funny, this succeeds through energy, ingenuity and -- against all the odds -- the charm of its dopey leads.
Top CriticThis is a long way from the social comedy of Jerry Lewis. The characters here are ultimately turned into punching bags or punch-line dispensers.
Top CriticWell titled and, for its purpose, a total success.
Gone are the days of John Belushi, where rudeness was raised to an art form.

Given American cinema's current obsession with innocence and ignorance, at least this never romanticises its protagonists. They are genuinely, irredeemably, 100 per cent no-hopers.
Top CriticNo review available.
A gross-out classic.
