Movie Description
Lowbrow buffoonery hit commercial highs with 1994's DUMB AND DUMBER. When best friends and aspiring pet groomers Lloyd Christmas (Jim Carrey, in a star-making role) and Harry Dunne (Jeff Daniels) get fired, Lloyd convinces Harry to travel to Colorado to search for his dream woman--Mary Swanson (Lauren Holly). Little does Lloyd know that Mary's in Aspen trying to locate her kidnapped husband. Soon the dimwitted pair have gotten mixed up in the crime, and their wacky exploits are leading the FBI straight to the crooks.
The Farrelly Brothers are at the peak of their twisted craft with this gut-busting comedy. But between such gross-out gags as Hary's Exlax overdose and Lloyd's deliriously over-the-top dream sequence, it's really the chemistry between Carrey and Daniels--and the charming naiveté of these two dunces--that lend the film a disarming sweetness., When best friends Lloyd Christmas and Harry Dunne both get fired, Lloyd convinces Harry to travel to Colorado to search for his dream woman, Mary Swanson. Little does Lloyd know that Mary's in Aspen trying to find her kidnapped husband. Soon the two have gotten mixed up in the crime, and their wacky exploits are leading the FBI straight to the crooks. The Farrelly Brothers are at the peak of their twisted craft with this gutbusting comedy.
Industry Reviews
"...[Daniels's] hangdog goofiness makes a perfect foil for [Carrey's] spasmodically edgy comic style....DUMB AND DUMBER knows much better than to try to make sense..."
New York Times - p.C10 - Stephen Holden (12/16/1994)
"...Carrey turns his face and body into a special effect....I defy anyone not to erupt into giggles..."
Entertainment Weekly - p.34 - Owen Gleiberman (01/13/1995)
"...DUMB AND DUMBER revels in a comedy of confusion..."
Sight and Sound - Chris Darke (04/01/1995)
"...Carrey is like a more elasticized Jerry Lewis; he may be the most freakishly cartoonish of all the star comedians..."
Los Angeles Times - Peter Rainer (12/16/1994)
