Even if you "like" this movie you have to admit its stupid. Beyond stupid, it's borderline atrocious. But it's impossible to hate on Carrey and anything that featured his 90's talent.

The appeal of this road trip style buddy comedy is watching it's two leads (Daniels and Carrey) act like complete morons. The shear stupidity of their character can lead can lead to some funny moments. However pacing moments a quite a few failed gags bring the movie down.

For one thing it feels like it goes on for much longer than it actually does. The gags in the middle portion of the film are where most of the misses take place. A few of them are lame gross out gags and fart jokes, but for the most part it relies on Jim Carrey making those stupid facial expressions of his. I, for one, have never found that funny of him.

It's not hard to see why so many have enjoyed this. It's brainless sense of humor is sure to get some laughs from people. How to judge how much you'll enjoy this really just comes down to how big of a Jim Carrey fan you are. It really plays off of the type of humor he's known for. I am personally not a fan of his so this movie didn't really do much for me outside of a few chuckles.

While it has struck the funny bone of so many people over the years I just couldn't get into it. There are plenty of better and smarter comedies out there, and ones that don't drag so much throughout their running time. You can defend the movie by saying being dumb is the point of it, however that doesn't mean it' going to resonate with everyone. While it does have some funny moments at the beginning and near the end, there's a lengthy middle section here that serves no purpose other than filling driving time in the plot. It's that time wasted that ultimately killed the movie for me.

This is a really funny movie with great actors but it doesn't hit my type of humor exactly and only because of that i point it not higher then 6 points.

Does just enough to stay consistently funny though the first half is signficantly better than the second.

It had been more than a few years since I properly sat down and watched this, but looks like I wasn't missing much. It's funny, yes, but just a tad too silly for my likings. While I love Jim Carrey there are much better films of his out thereIt had been more than a few years since I properly sat down and watched this, but looks like I wasn't missing much. It's funny, yes, but just a tad too silly for my likings. While I love Jim Carrey there are much better films of his out there and I can't say I was a fan of his early 90's work, but if you're after a little mindless fun then there's nothing wrong with popping this one on and having a chuckle, but for a quality film perhaps look elsewhere Expand

Throughout the whole running time of the movie, you realize that it is actually entertaining, humorous and giggly although a bit annoying and straight ahead desperately trying to make you laugh, in which it falls flat most of the time.

Dumb And Dumber

The dumbness isn't the issue but the overlong stretch of a wafer thin script which is annoyingly exhausting even for 107 minutes.

Хорошая игра главных героев, хорошая музыка, сюжет простоват и почти не захватывает, даже если это комедия. Проще говоря, не плохая комедия для просмотра в какой нибудь свободный вечерок.Хорошая игра главных героев, хорошая музыка, сюжет простоват и почти не захватывает, даже если это комедия.
