- Dumb and Dumber To does have its moments, but not enough of them -- and the Farrelly brothers' brand of humor is nowhere near as refreshingly transgressive as it once seemed.

Is 'Dumb & Dumber To' still dumb?
In Dumb and Dumber To, most of the jokes just aren’t funny, the timing’s all wrong, etc. The main thing though is that it was doomed to fail due to the hype of the first one. Rumor is that Jim Carrey bailed on even being in the sequel before he finally agreed.
Nov 14, 2014 · It has been 20 long years since the brothers staked their claim as gross-out comedy kings with the original “Dumb and Dumber.” But, as anyone who watches cable news shows or reality series knows, the world has yet to tire of observing nincompoops.

Jim Carreyand Jeff Daniels return as Lloyd Christmas and Harry Dunne, slipping right back into their pseudo Three Stooges routines like a pair of pastel tuxedos. Though they may go a bit overboard at times trying to recapture the magic, their onscreen chemistry still pops like the firecrackers they set off in Travis's bed. Perhaps it's funnier to s...
The Farrelly Brothers may not be the sibling team associated with clever nuance, but they have their own particular brand of successful humor. They got the gang back together with a script that works, partially because they have a great creative relationship with their two charismatic leads. This second sojourn for Lloyd and Harry is no less ridicu...
Do the boys find new and disgusting ways to eat food? Of course. Do they once again subject unsuspecting women to their uncouth catcalls? Certainly. Do they make their third wheel character the butt of merciless practical jokes? Without fail. But the jokes aren't just recycled for nostalgia alone - instead, they come across as inside jokes between ...
There's certainly a time and a place for nostalgia in a sequel that can make sense without succumbing to too much fan service. Callbacks to Dumb & Dumber, like the one where Lloyd sold a decapitated parakeet to Billy(all grown up and played by the original actor, Brady Bluhm, in the sequel) are both welcome and hilarious. Even the interaction with ...
Rather than specifically being a quick cash grab like it could have been, the movie took years to come together. It centered on the journey of two selfish men who haven't learned anything in the years since their last adventure, realizing that they need to grow up and face the realities of their ignorance in order to not lose lasting relationships....
Jeff Daniels has played many serious roles, so it's a delight to watch him move his body in ridiculous ways or turn his face into equally absurd shapes. And no one is as remarkable at the latter as Jim Carrey, and the two are as malleable as the limits of the physical form in their second go-around.

The humor in the sequel focuses a lot on flatulence, drug use, bodily fluids, and all the usual fare from the first movie, but it also has some incredibly funny moments that stem from subtle dialogue, such as in this exchange about Lloyd's surname: "Christmas? As in the holiday?” “No,” says Lloyd, “as in the tree." For every joke that lands, severa...
For fans of the sort of cross country shenanigans Lloyd and Harry get into in the first movie, or just road trip movies in general, the plot of Dumb & Dumber To will be appealing, especially since it's full of the same sort of fish-out-of-water jokes as the original whenever the bumbling pair encounter a new town.

While it's difficult to imagine many people staying in Lloyd and Harry's lives for very long, given their reckless stupidity, their buffoonery wouldn't be nearly as amusing if they didn't have a great cast of characters serving as their victims. Harry's old flame in the delightful form of Kathleen Turneris a fun foil to his shuffling oafishness, an...
When Bill & Ted Face The Music came out and fans found out that Keanu Reeves took a huge pay cut to get the movie made, it wasn't surprising. The long-awaited threequel was always going to be for the fans.
