Review of Dumb and Dumber To (2014) by Titus C — 08 Jan 2017

20 years after the original and the wonders of make up make these two look like they haven't aged a day. Mentally I don't think they ever will and that's a good thing providing they continue to entertain us with their dimwit personalities.

This is just what we come to expect from this film; good but without being a real rib tickler. It's such childish humour and I can't help but let that amuse me, as I too have an inability to grow up at times.

It's a vague continuation of the previous film, but you won't be at a loss if you haven't seen the original beforehand, as it's an independent storyline where Harry is looking for his long lost daughter to help give him a kidney transplant.

Again they are both being pursued by mafia like hitmen keen on killing the pair for the sake of their own riches, but yet again they somehow struggle to outwit two of the dumbest characters ever - all very predictable I know.

If you liked the first one, you'll like this - somehow I find myself preferring the original but I'm not entirely sure why - whether it's because there were more original gags, or whether I'm just starting to mature slightly, I'm not sure, but I can see me forgetting this a bit after a few years time (whereas I will always remember certain scenes from 'Dumb and Dumber').

I wouldn't recommend you go out your way to watch this but if you need a little pick me up, this wouldn't be a bad place to start.
