Possibly the best buddy flick ever made along with being Jim Carrey's finest hour

Rating: 8/10 (14 May 2008)

There have been many movies that made me laugh during my youth, but none haven't made me spray milk out of my nose with the exception of "Dumb and Dumber" which is possibly the most gut busting laugh fest ever made with "Scary Movie" coming behind in second place.
Dumb and Dumber is about two of the most idiotic characters in cinema history with Jim Carrey as the role of Lloyd Christmas, a simple minded but nice guy who can't seem to hold a job before holding a position of a limo driver where he falls in love with a passenger girl name Mary (Lauren Holly)before dropping her off at the airport. Lloyd's best friend and companion is Harry Dunn, played by Jeff Daniels, in which like Lloyd, Harry is a loser in his own way. The scruffy hair buddy drives dogs on the way to the dog shows for which his van is detail of one like a dog with giant ears on the side. Both friends lose their jobs until Harry sees that Lloyd is carrying an unknown briefcase that belonged to Mary from the airport in which the two of them embark in a journey where mishaps and misery are engaged to those that get near Harry and Lloyd together.
The film is a high mark for Jim Carrey who already succeeded box office gold with Ace Venture: Pet Detective at the time, but instead of butt jokes it's all about the pranks and gags from the comic. Jeff Daniels took me by surprise where instead of playing a normal guy in such films as Speed and Arachnophobia, he shows that he can place his acting chops into comedy. They make quite the duo to make my day.
Note: A sequel was made in which all fans of the original should stay away from it.
