A cracking comedy road movie

Rating: Null/10 (2 March 2004)

Dumb and Dumber is the kind of film that only gets better each time you watch it. It charts the events of 2 broke friends Harry Dunn (Jeff Daniels) and Lloyd Christmas (Jim Carrey) along a journey to Aspen, to return a young ladies' luggage. It isn't a fantastic movie, nor is it wonderfully profound. It lets you relax into the story, keeps you intrigued by the characters and shapes the story, with the help of a superb soundtrack, in a way that exuberates warmth. Dumb actions and dumb gags might be a turn off for some critic types, but I bet when they started watching it, they can't turn it off. In my view it is one of the best from the Farrelly Brothers. Stick it on when you're down and prepare to be raised.
