Reviews for Dumb and Dumber
Released before I started reviewing, but I would be remiss if I didn't say: it's a fine film. Had me buckling over in laughter, often, little plot, 100% pure stupid genius.

Maybe it's indicative of my end-of-the-year brain-fry, but this dopey comedy about two of the dumbest guys in the universe on a road trip to misadventure is a hoot.

While I won't claim to have gone through this entire film without laughing, there are some long periods between chuckles.
01/01/00
Top Criticwe can see a lot of these laughs coming, and they don’t hold much staying power

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]
01/08/09
[Featrues] a plethora of memorable scenes.

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.

Top CriticDumb 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 virtually laughless movie makes rude junior high school pranks seem positively sophisticated.
01/01/00
A movie that fully lives up to its name, right down to an opening credit sequence rife with intentional misspellings and grammatical errors.
05/20/03
Top CriticAn execrable catalogue of doody jokes, Dumb and Dumber is an abominable, abdominal comedy.
01/01/00
Top CriticDumb & Dumber doesn't have the greatest of plots nor the most impressive direction there is, but it's hysterically funny, which is more than enough for me to recommend it heartily.
09/10/02
...it tickles the funny bone often enough to merit serious consideration among lowbrow comedies.
12/18/08
Farrelly, quite simply put, does not appear to have the slightest clue about comic timing.
01/01/00
This is a long way from the social comedy of Jerry Lewis. The characters here are ultimately turned into punching bags or punch-line dispensers.
04/28/08
Top CriticInspired, irreverent, spark-driven comedy that takes you places you never thought a movie would go -- even a Jim Carrey movie.
01/01/00
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.
04/28/08
Top CriticAn uneven collection of bodily function jokes, facial gyrations, sexual jibes and pedestrian slapstick.
01/01/00
Top CriticDespretensiosamente ingênuo, 'Débi & Lóide' é a maior prova de que um filme nem sempre precisa ter uma trama elaborada para agradar.
