Summary: THE MOVIE SUCKS!
Review: I was looking forward to seein this movie,
the movie was stupid and NOT funny at all.
Infact it was very boring. I recommand the original hit Dumb & Dumber from 1994.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: I Liked it but it was stupid
Review: I saw this film yesterday, I was pleased.kinda of dissapointed, cause it wasnt that funny, it had its moments, there were a couple hilarious scenes but that was it.If you wanna see a all time hilarious Dumb and Dumber get the original.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: IMHO: Good casting of Harry and Lloyd
Review: In my humble opinion, the casting of the characters, Harry and Lloyd, was well-done. The actors that were cast to play younger versions of the two jackasses from the first film do indeed resemble and sound like the actors (Carrey and Daniels) that played the two jackasses in the first film.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: This movie stinks!!
Review: This movie is just utterly boring and unfunny. Don't fall for this even if you're a die hard fan of the 1994 original.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Offensive, degrading and insulting to moviegoers!
Review: There is nothing that can be even remotely funny about this despicable atrocity that you would call a prequel! This movie is the worst movie that I have seen in many years and stands in direct contrast to "Lord Of The Rings", "X-Men United", , "Secondhand Lions" and "Radio". Unlike those three movies which are 2003's best movies, "Dumb and Dumberer" stands as the worst movie I've seen this year. The acting is unbelievably ridiculous and I can't even by any stretch of the imagination, understand how they could even give the green light to this horrid prequel. Jim Carrey and Jeff Daniels were really funny in the 1994 original movie "Dumb and Dumber". The two who played them in this prequel were absolutely annoying and aggravating without being even slightly funny.

Adding stale potty humor only makes an already unsalvageable film even worse. The scene with the Hershey's chocolate bar spread all over the bathroom wall just made me sick and lose my appetite for days afterwards. Potty Humor, when done right, can be really funny but it fails miserably on this prequel. The jokes and gags were completely unconvincing and annoying to no end. Just to make it simple, all of the jokes are very bad with a capital B.

The number one thing that offends me about this movie to a very high degree is not the incredibly dumb acting and poor script for this movie but it is a HUGE tear down to people who have disabilities. I myself have struggle with a psychological disability (Asperger's Syndrome) and this movie is the most horrific and most disgraceful movie I've ever seen in my entire life. This aims to cash on the plight of socially challenged people of all ages. I have known and went to school with classmates with a wide variety of social disabilities and most of them were very smart, brilliant and extremely creative people. I myself have struggled through high school but managed to have several friends with neurotypical (non-disabled) individuals. I may have had trouble in school in the past but it was because of coming down with several episodes severe depression. Today, I am doing very well in school and am in college.

2003 is the year that I will remember when movie qualities took extreme directions. The positive direction was with powerful movies like "X-Men United" and ending with a huge bang with "Lord of the Rings: The Return of The King" but also falling to new lows with "Gigli" and this prequel to "Dumb and Dumber".

Don't even bother renting this cinematic garbage. This is the biggest disgrace that has cluttered the movie theatres. It flopped for a good reason. People realized that it is one of the biggest pieces of junk that has ever been made. Some may call me very reactionary towards movies like this and I don't care either because rubbish like this that aims to portray people with low IQs and mental disabilities being stupid and doing unbelievably vile and stupid things is extremely degrading and bigoted. Even most people with low IQs and other handicaps can really do some great things for our society and live a normal to great life and live a life just like everyone else.

With this prequel, for those who made the big mistake of buying this lousy prequel, throw it on the floor and with FULL FORCE!

I hope Amazon doesn't mind me changing the subject a bit. On a more positive note to end this scathing review, I would highly suggest renting or buying the movie "Radio". Although this is not a comedy movie, "Radio" does the extreme opposite of "Dumb and Dumberer", showing how people with severe handicaps can ultimately become beloved icons. You won't be disappointed with "Radio". You will be far more rewarded with "Radio" than you would with "Dumb and Dumberer".

Summary: Pitiful Excuse for "Entertainment"
Review: Is it possible that movie quality in America can descend much lower? (Don't answer that question if you must reply in the affirmative.) Like most folks, I like a good laugh now and then but the problem with this comedy is that it is not funny. By not funny I mean it was boring, obnoxious, stupid and predictable. I found myself looking around in the theater at others who seemed relieved that the lights were so low their identities were hidden.

I mean, the forced laughter at the skits, the same old jokes, the same dumb tricks - it reminds me of my boys only when they were in sixth grade. I am not sure which actor did worst (or best, depending on your point of view). They were annoying in the extreme - even in the "funny" parts. One note: People almost flew out of their seats just before the credits rolled, probably for a breath of fresh air. Do not rent or buy this movie except for someone you don't like.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Nevermind how stupid the jokes were....
Review: this movie was racist! Ching Chong??? WTF??? If you actually think this movie is funny, you're either very immature or you have serious mental problems. Peace.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Great characters
Review: I have to wonder if some people write biased reviews just because this is a prequel with replacement actors.

I was expecting total junk too, riding the wave of the first movie, etc. But it's not. The two main actors do an amazing job, and their similarity to the characters of the first movie is almost incidental. It's not a bunch of recycled jokes, this is new material. I agree that the first movie was better, but this one was good too.

My comparrative guide for potential viewers is as follows:
If you liked 'Dirty Work' and 'Screwed,' this movie is about half a notch lower in stupidity. If you like the first "Dumb and Dumber," you'll need to get over the whole "I hate replacement actors" thing and stop pretending you are clever for noticing that they aren't the same people.
