dumb-head


What you may need to know

1. Can it be almost 20 years since the original Dumb And Dumber (1994)? It gets
funnier ever year.

2. Jim Carrey has made a lot of bad movies since then. And a few great ones.

3. Jeff Daniels is OFFICIALLY one of the unsung greats. Squid & The
Whale (2005), anybody?

4. The Farrelly Brothers return to direct; they followed the original
D&D with There’s Something About Mary (1998), and it’s been hit and miss ever
since. More miss than hit, although Kingpin (1996) remains their masterpiece.

5. Elderly vaginas = comedy gold?

6. Broadsheet Prognosis: Cautiously optimistic.

Release Date: November
