Dumb and Dumberer: When Harry Met Lloyd

2

Before you consider renting this horrific sequel to the classic movie "Dumb and Dumber", please, by all means, think again. I call this the worst film of all time because, well, it just is. The acting is terrible, the plot is horrendously absurd and predictable, and it is just not uplifting to watch. Probably the absolute worst aspect of this movie is how it tries to be funny. I'm not kidding when I say that Harry and Lloyd produce absolutely no humorous line, joke, or action in this entire film. If there was one god-forsaken reason to watch this movie, it could be either that you are under six years old, enjoy Eugene Levy's acting abilities, or are stoned out of your mind. Other than that, there is no point in viewing this movie, which should have never been made, and should have absolutely no connections to the fabulous "Dumb and Dumber." Please, join my quest in getting this terrible movie back into the bottom 100, where it should achieve its rightful #1 spot some day soon.

People judge this movie too harshly because it's a prequel to a beloved movie. Yes, the original Dumb & Dumber is far better. Of course it is. No one expected this movie to surpass the original. I honestly think they did a pretty good job. A good number of jokes landed for me and the actors did a great job of portraying what I think a young Harry and Lloyd would act like. They do a better job playing the characters and the actual same actors did in the sequel "Dumb and Dumber To". This movie is way better than that one in my opinion. Overall, not nearly as bad as people say and deserves more credit. 6/10.

Let's face it, if you went into a restaurant and ordered a sh*t sandwich and got precisely that, could you honestly complain about what you got? Dumb and Dumberer is precisely that. The title sums it up and you really shouldn't expect anything other than rubbish when you sit down to watch it. That said, I am surprised to see it in the bottom 100 of IMDb's lists. It is bad, but I'm sure there are many films far above it that deserve its place at the bottom much, much more. Dumb and Dumberer could never hope to compete with its predecessor but its no worse really than any other teen-comedy-high-school nonsense. If the original movie had not been made, then this one wouldn't have gotten anywhere near the bad press it has. But, alas, it was not to be, and so this film will slip into obscurity like many ill-conceived sequels, destined to be forgotten, or talked about with ill-disguised scorn when reminiscing over the original movie. The best way to watch this film (if you have to at all) is to try and forget the characters Jim Carrey and Jeff Daniels made their own, and view it as if that first film had never happened. Also, console yourself whilst watching that there are a few bloopers tacked onto the end that are the comedic highlight of this unfunny movie, although its really not worth watching the film just for them. You might then get some enjoyment out of an otherwise bland film. In summary then, its bad but not really deserving a place in the worst 100 of IMDb.

I had the feeling this movie was going to do bad with the critics, I was right and I didn't think it would do good at the box office because this movie didn't have very good marketing and again I was right. But I still had high hopes for this movie! Jim Carrey is my idol and I was a little mad that he wasn't coming back, but you gotta understand, this dude wants to explore different characters. Anywayz, I went into this movie with my brother and we laughed out loud. Yeah there were some not so funny scenes, but it was still hilarious! Especially Bob Sagat! Eric Christian Olsen play Lloyd Christmas very well, but Derek Richardson is alright. I didn't think Eugene Levy gave his best, but Cheri was very funny! And that Rachel Nichols lady is mighty fine! Anywayz, all in all, this movie made me laugh, I wasn't disappointed, and I'm going to buy it when it comes out on DVD! I do have a life, but I can't put a movie down that easily (like Dreamcatcher), but this movie I didn't feel sorry for! But, yes, this movie could've done better with the Farrelly Brothers! I hope they get the thought to making a sequel and bring back Jim, Jeff, and Sebass! Although Dumb and Dumberer is funny stuff my man! 4 stars out of 4 stars Sincerely Sidekick Jolly!

Now, mainstream critics and audiences alike are pathetic at this point in history. Accepting humor and just having a good time is hard with many, especially when some are trying to maintain a grand reputation. This is the case with the overall acceptance of this riotous film. A campy plot and set of jokes couldn't possibly lose a viewer's interest, could it? I mean, people laugh at Family Guy, a show with humor clearly as subjective and ridiculous as that of Dumb and Dumberer. Even Blue Collar humor is more clichéd than this. I admire the entire good mood of this film. I felt great after viewing it. I also haven't laughed that hard in an unnamed amount of time. Don't believe the criticism --- the only reason I can think of for those types of comments is that the lead roles aren't played by the same actors. Yet, who would want to see 40-somethings playing teenagers?

There's a number of jokes that are funny in this movie and I don't know why people criticize it. I mean like what the heck did you expect a masterpiece? For what it was the film is at least loyal to the characters who are both stupid and you don't know who's stupider. This is way better than that terrible sequel made last year, where all the jokes were based on how gross it could be. I never liked the idea of prequels but this film I think did it fine. The only thing I think would of been a wiser idea is had Harry take Lloyd's role of being the one to tell him what to do. I mean Harry is a leader in the original but here he is more of like a sidekick. I really liked the scene, "There's Sh.t everywhere!" The only things I wish they changed were Harry and Lloyd's roles and also maybe add a funnier climax but it's overall alright! I can't believe people hate this but the sequel made last year is rated higher! I think these rating should be switched! I give it a 6.5 out of 10.

Boy, people have sure been knocking this movie. I personally, thought it was hilarious. I loved it. I don't know what other people were expecting, I mean, glance at the title. If people are looking for intellectual stimulation and a subject for discussion at their next Mensa meeting, then no...this movie would not be for them. Derek Richardson and Eric Christian Olsen did a great job. They both had their work cut out for them, and they came through.

I love gross and vulgar movies. I love bad movies that have some redeeming value. I will keep this brief--avoid AT ALL COSTS!!!!! I don't recall ever seeing anything as worthless as this. Everybody below has said it in one way or another. No need to repeat them except to WARN YOU NOT TO SEE THIS MOVIE!!!!
