Go and decorate your home, sit down and watch the paint for hours until dry, it will definitely provide more laughs. Expand

This unfunny sequel pays no homage to its cult predecessor, and you soon realise that the only thing that's dumb is the writing. Jim Carrey was also disappointing, exaggerating too much and resulting in a parody of himself - but the true blame for this colossal flop is definitely going to fall on the writers, who cheaply recycled the plot from the original and wrote one single funny scene.

The rest are monotonous, century-old jokes.

The first dumb and dumber was one of my favorite comedies. Dumb and dumber 2 is just so bad. I couldn't even watch the whole thing. I made it through only 35 minutes and just had to walk out.

Crappy more about it because the humor so old and "out". 10 years ago it would have worked.

I watched the movie because its Jim Carrey and Jeff Daniels, also I watched the first movie and it was so funny and good. While, this movie, I was shocking. Jeff Daniels was not suppose to act like that. He was so great in every single his movies. Jim Carrey should stop fool himself around. He can do better.

While Carrey and Daniels try to bring these characters back it's a total disaster mainly because of the Farrelly Brothers terrible story.

Dumb and Dumber To says all you need to know about the film in the title and yet still manages to be incredibly lazy, unfunny, and a cringe worthy movie. Just one big embarrassment of a film.

The only reason I went to see this garbage movie was because my friend convinced me to go with him. We both are fans of the first movie and were holding out on the idea that maybe it wouldn't be a total loss. It was.

It would be generous to say that there were a couple of chuckle-worthy jokes in the entirety of this movie. Other than that, it blows long.....and it blows HARD.

Unless you're addicted to sniffing gas, or some other kind of brain rotting intoxicant, you probably won't find anything to laugh about here. I relaxed my standards and was just looking for something to like. But I found nothing. This movie is bad in a way I cannot seem to find the adequate words to describe. It's cheap, and not just dumb, actually cringe worthy the whole way through. No effort. It's kind of like Anchorman 2. Everything from everyone not channeling the spirit of their original characters, oddly filmed with a stupidly high fram rate and unwelcomed style in general. In motion it looks like a British soap opera, makes me almost sick to look at it.
Horrible story, bad acting from everyone, stolen jokes, no charisma, nothing. They burned it all down. Anyone who got paid to make this incising the actors should be banned from ever making a major motion picture again. I've written so much and still feel like I haven't got my point across as strongly as I'd like. I just can't believe this garbage.

We stillI wasn’t even 10 when the first Dumb & Dumber was released in 1994. Twenty years ago, Jim Carrey was the hero of a generation: he was Ace Ventura and The Mask, and every kid at school imitated his catchphrases at every occasion. We still didn’t know about the awful films that would come in the following couple of years (before he found his redemption with The Truman Show), and leave an indelible mark on his career. His co-star was Jeff Daniels, who also appeared in Speed, but didn’t have a fraction of Carrey’s fame. Daniels reportedly agreed to get involved in Dumb & Dumber for $50,000 (while Carrey’s salary was around $7 million, nearly half of the whole film’s budget), just because he was keen to star in a comedy. By pairing Carrey (Lloyd) and Daniels (Harry), and having them perform a bunch of idiotic stunts, the then newcomers Bobby and Peter Farrelly created one of the most iconic slapstick comedies of the ‘90s, and achieved an incredible financial success. I’m not sure I would find it as funny now, but it still is significantly better than its simple-minded and slack sequel, Dumb and Dumber To.

Many things have changed since 1994: Bobby and Peter directed a dozen more films with increasingly worse results, The Three Stooges (2012) and their segments in the much hated Movie 43 (2013) being perfect examples of their worst failures. Jim Carrey alternated various comedies with dramatic performances, often with good results (Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind and Man on The Moon to name but a few). Jeff Daniels, on the other hand, starred in a series of consistently mediocre features, as a quick glance at his Rotten Tomatoes page will prove. Regardless of the wrong choices he made in the past, his appearance in Looper (2012), and the Emmy he just won for his role in acclaimed TV series The Newsroom, show that he’s a solid actor with a lot of potential.

When the news of Dumb and Dumber To’s release spread, millions of eyebrows raised in incredulity. Why on Earth would Carrey and Daniels go back to those ridiculous roles? They had too much to lose to risk being dragged back into potentially career-wrecking parts. This sequel attracted little favour from the very beginning; it will be interesting to see the box office results, but nothing will change the fact that, bias aside, Dumb and Dumber To is the huge disappointment everyone feared it would be. This is mostly due to Bobby and Peter Farrelly’s inability to understand the way comedy evolved in the last twenty years – although I feel that most of the film’s gags would have still fallen flat in the ‘90s.

The story follows Dumb and Dumber’s road adventure formula: Lloyd and Harry must bring the proverbial MacGuffin from A to B, while chased by a deadly gang of criminals. People falling on the floor, fart jokes and qui-pro-quo gags follow at will in a tiring, uninspired and unoriginal fashion; even plot points and complementary characters are dumbed down, as if Lloyd and Harry themselves had written the screenplay on a lazy afternoon. Is this ingenious meta-cinema, or plain ineptitude? Despite their comic verve, Carrey and Daniels aren’t remotely as funny as they were 20 years ago. Seeing these two 50-year-olds grab their asses and laugh hysterically creates a sense of unease, even when their jokes actually manage to crack a laugh. Dumb and Dumber To reflects a sad trend of the recent past: directors and studios exploiting old successes to create (often unneccessary) sequels or prequels. Old ideas, however, don’t always work when merely reproposed without a serious creative process behind them. Fans of the original films are learning it the hard way; let’s hope directors and actors (but especially producers) understand it soon too.

They shouldn’t made this movie, so tell me, why was this movie ever greenlit? There’s just unfunny poop and fart jokes prevalent everywhere in the plot. This is one of the most hackneyed, unpleasantly unfunny, and dumbest movies I had the misfortune to watch. I don’t know what else I can really say about this shameful trash. D&D1 was funny, this movie wasn’t. Don’t waste your time. Expand
