Dumb & Dumberer [VHS]


  • THE MISADVENTURES OF TWO INCREDIBLY STUPID GUYS.You ll be dumbstruck. That s a good thing. Lloyd (Jim Carrey) and Harry (Jeff Daniels) deliver a delirious no-brainer (Side A s Dumb and Dumber) as they hit the road to return a misplaced briefcase to its owner (Lauren Holly). The fellas don t know the case is crammed with ransom money. But you will. And so will the mob guys trying to get the case ba
Harry meets Lloyd and assembles a ragtag team for a high school experience unlike any other in this prequel to the hit comedy, Dumb and Dumber.A passable comedy for delinquent kids and unambitious teens with time to kill, Dumb and Dumberer does for prequels what Jerry Springer did for daytime television. With only faint connection to the 1994 hit starring Jim Carrey and Jeff Daniels, this ill-conceived prequel follows the Carrey/Daniels characters, Lloyd and Harry, as they bungle their way th! rough high school. The principal and his demented lunch lady (Eugene Levy and SNL alumnus Cheri Oteri) have hatched a scheme to embezzle funds intended for students with "special needs," and Harry & Lloyd unwittingly recruit a few "intellectually challenged" classmates to fuel the plot. Veteran TV director Troy Miller prefers to keep the humor low and lowerer: Scatological jokes, puerile double-entendres, and juvenile sight gags ensure that Dumb and Dumberer lives up to its title. As Lloyd and Harry, respectively, Eric Christian Olsen and Derek Richardson deliver a few laughs, but they're stuck in a movie with special needs of its own. --Jeff ShannonDUMB AND DUMBER DOUBLE FEATURE - DVD MovieHarry meets Lloyd and assembles a ragtag team for a high school experience unlike any other in this prequel to the hit comedy, Dumb and Dumber.A passable comedy for delinquent kids and unambitious teens with time to kill, Dumb and Dumberer does for prequels wh! at Jerry Springer did for daytime television.
