Critics Consensus

A relentlessly stupid comedy elevated by its main actors: Jim Carrey goes bonkers and Jeff Daniels carries himself admirably in an against-type performance.

Jim Carey & Jeff Daniels unleash total insanity in this undeniably hilarious comedy. Nothing is off limits, nothing is sacred and it's absolutely unapologetic in its relentless pursuit of laughs.

Oh god, i cant even think of a time when i watched a funnier movie than this. If your into comedy then you'll love this movie, if you've seen the movie a man who knew too little, its similar to that, but possibly a little funnier.

What makes this fantasy of anti-social behaviour so painfully funny, is the gulf between etiquette and vulgarity, the desire to be a child whooping it up in the adult world.

You cannot deny a laugh, and Dumb and Dumber has plenty.

Hollywood Reporter

The plot, of course, is merely an excuse for an endless series of gags, and the percentage of them that score is fairly high.

It isn’t nonstop hilarity; there are quite a few dead spots. But I liked it a lot.
