Amazon.co.uk Review

Delivering exactly what its title promises, this celebration of stupidity was Jim Carrey's 1994 follow-up to Ace Ventura: Pet Detective and The Mask. The film pairs the rubber-faced wacky man with Jeff Daniels as the not-so-dynamic duo of Lloyd and Harry, dunderheads who come into the possession of a briefcase containing ransom money that is intended for Mob-connected kidnappers. Lauren Holly co-stars as the woman who lost the briefcase, and with whom Carrey falls in love (both in real life and as his moronic on-screen character). As Lloyd and Harry make a mad dash to return the briefcase (never aware of its contents), the bumbling buddies attract Mobsters, cops, and trouble galore. This lowbrow laugh-a-thon scores some solid hits for hilarity, but with gags involving ill-fated parakeets, buxom bimbos, and an overdose of laxatives, be prepared to put your brain--and good taste--on hold.--Jeff Shannon

Synopsis

The crazy tale of two guys who, in 1965, travel across country to reunite Mary Swanson with her briefcase.

5.0 out of 5 stars Our pets heads are falling off!, 7 Nov 2006

By	B. Monteith (Lincoln) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Dumb And Dumber [DVD] [1995] (DVD)

This is undoubtedly the best comedy in the history of the world. Monty python, airplane!, borat etc etc seem all but mediocre in the presence of dumb and dumber.

The comedy timing and performance is amazing from both carrey and daniels. The script is hilarious and there are numerous occasions when you will be stuggling to get enough oxygen into your blood as you fight histerics.

And this is not a one off, i have watched this film over 20 times ands classic lines such as;
"fell off the jetway again"
"kick his ass sea bass"
"you wouldnt happen to have a cup of warm water would ya"
"that old romantic feeling, when youd do anything to bone her"
"you dont kil people you dont know"
"oh no howd it happen (pet dying) - his head fell off, yeah he was pretty old"
"youre it triple stamp, no erasees"
"an i.o.u is as good as money, sir"
"lets put another shrimp on the barby!"
"i wanna go where the beer flows like wine"
"hey wanna hear the most annoying sound in the world"
"Just gimmme the GOD DA.M NUMBER!"
"For fast effective releif"
"Mary, I desperately want to make love to a school boy"
"look at the fun bags on that horse hound"

Never grow old. If you havent seen this film it is a crime and you need to order it today, if you have watch it again, now.

Granted there are little features on this film but the film will give you everything you need (and the uncut version is not very good). Please dont think that i am just hyping this film up, this is the best comedy ever made, it will be worth the watch, enjoy.

3.0 out of 5 stars Great film ruined by a bad DVD, 25 Jul 2002

By	Mr S G Johnson - See all my reviews

This review is from: Dumb And Dumber [DVD] [1995] (DVD)

The film is brilliant-funny, clever and...well funny! Thats the good part..the bad part is the DVD itself. There are only a couple of extra features on offer, when there could have been so much more-ie: Commentry, documentary etc.. Also, the film is cut! Although not much is cut, its enough to be angry at..most noticable cut is when they pick up the hitchhikers-in this version..well, they don't. Also the subtitles are off, I mean, when Lloyd says 'You have that crazy look in your eyes', the subtitles say 'You have a crazy look when you arrive'..I mean whats that all about?

A great film, but a very poor DVD, lets just hope they re-release it sometime soon..

5.0 out of 5 stars In a word: hilarious, 22 Jan 2004

By	Jamie F (UK) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Dumb And Dumber [DVD] [1995] (DVD)

Jim Carrey and Jeff Daniels excel as the leads in this film which must rate amongst one of the funniest ever made. From one-liners to sketches or situations, Dumb and Dumber exceeds superbly on the main criteria for any comedy: it's funny. The plot is simple, but it keeps things moving and provides perfect settings for the humour to continue.

Whilst perhaps setting the scene for the many teen and gross-out comedies that have appeared in the last 10 years, Dumb & Dumber is still fresh and very, very funny, even after many, many viewings.

The support actors perfectly complement the leads. The policeman, the waitress, Lauren Holly and many others play their roles seriously, emphasising the goofiness exhibited by the starring duo. Jim Carrey's talent at facial and physical humour (even if you're not a fan of most of Jim Carreys other films, try this film, he plays the role superbly) is perfectly complemented by Daniels, who manages to play the dumber of the two.

Without doubt in my mind, this is the vintage film by the excellent Farrelly brothers. As I've said before, it doesn't do anything special, it just does what so many comedies fail to manage. It's funny. Not only that, it's very funny, and not just in places. It's very funny throughout.

The disc comes with few extras, which is a bit of a disappointment. However, the menus are good, the picture is clean and the film is a gem. Coupled with the bargain price, this is a must-have disc.
