Still makes me laugh after 6 years...

Rating: 9/10 (7 January 2000)

I don't know why this still makes me laugh out loud. I mean, how many times can you see a man go into near prolapse after his best friend filled his glass with laxative? Well, i admit that has got a little old, but the great dialogue and the amazing (and believable) perfromanaces here will make this movie stand out as one of my favorite comedies of all time.

One reason this movie will endure is because it doesn't insult the viewer. Alright, maybe the endangered snow owl being killed bya cork will offend the nature lover, but never will this movie insult your intelligents. (Re: Deuce Bigalow) The movie works i think because of the reason that these two goofs don't realize what they're doing is so...well, dumb. They don't get it. We do, and we laugh. The movie makes you feel smarter. And people like being smart. It works. Carrey is wonderful here (his only comedy I can stand) and Jeff Daniels is just the good friend following blindly...
Great movie. Highly recommended.
