Review
Although the script almost lives up to the title, and there's
something inherently sad about watching old comedians doing old
tricks, none of this really seems to affect Jim Carrey, especially
not when he's in this kind of inspired form. Dumb and Dumber To
goes through the motions, but does it with such energy and joyful
nostalgia that we're able to ignore the film's more obvious
shortcomings. The Farrelly's ideas are hit-or-miss, but when they
hit, Carrey's talent elevates them to brilliant comedy. Kathleen
Turner is good fun as an old lover of the two title characters.
