Jim Carrey and Jeff Daniels reprise their signature roles as Lloyd and Harry in the sequel to the smash hit that took the physical comedy and kicked it in the nuts: Dumb and Dumber To. The original film's directors, Peter and Bobby Farrelly, take Lloyd and Harry on a road trip to find a child Harry never knew he had and the responsibility neither should ever, ever be given.

Universal Pictures will distribute the film in the United States, Canada and select international territories.(C) Universal

[@MikeHeldTheWorld]

He should have stayed until the end. That's his job as a film reviewer. If I walked out of my job I would get fired. Some movies might suck, but you have to stick it out so you can give the consumer an informed review, because that's your job. Just seems a bit irresponsible.

[@rockoutwithyourckout]

Agreed. One thing motivating him to walk out was the idea that he would get to say "I walked out" on this show.

[@nuttwave]

It was at least wrong of him to give it a score at the end. If you haven't seen the whole movie, you haven't seen the movie. Have some integrity.

[@movieman82us]

I think it's okay that he walked out from but he should have excluded himself from giving officially giving it a number. It's unprofessional behavior on his part IMO.

[@takanara7]

Oh please - His job is really just to entertain people by talking about movies, which you can do if you leave halfway through. He's not like a heart surgeon walking out of an operating theater with someone's chest cavity still open. For the most part, people who have fun jobs that aren't really important don't have the same mindset that they _have_ deal with crap when it comes up because ultimately nothing bad happens if they flake out once in a while. It's not something that would ever become a pattern, because most movies are actually pretty entertaining. (Even the shit ones are usually worth sitting through once you've paid)

[@movieman82us]

If he is a professional film critic then it is his job to see the whole movie no matter how bad it is to him. He didn't. I'm not complaining about that. But if he did that then he shouldn't review a movie professionally. It's not professional behavior. If he does it, he starts to lose some credibility as a critic.

[@nicodimus2222]

I understand walking out of a movie as a normal person. However, Matt's occupation is that of a film critic, so he failed at his job by walking out, regardless of his opinion on the movie.

[@kyero8724]

You mistake that he is a "good" Movie Critic.

[@zacharysiple783]

Roger Ebert walked out of Caligula and a few movies as well. I write IMDB reviews and don't finish a small few movies. Some movies aren't worth murdering 2 hours of your life to.

[@Gavin48]

These guys basically summed up my feelings for The Anchorman franchise

[@matthewbecker3997]

right? My god the sequel was impossible to sit through

[@sonicjrjr14]

Matthew Becker really? I thought it was better than the 1st movie.

[@whattheflickshow]

lol thanks for watching the show...we appreciate it!

[@MalevolentCure]

+What The Flick?! When I first heard that they were going through with (it was tentative at that point) with a sequel to Dumb and Dumber, "mean spirited humour" is exactly what I was afraid would derail it; that the Farrelly's would not stay true to the heart of the original, and get carried away with how degenerative the comedy genre has become in today's zeitgeist. The main reason I feared this was because I have seen the "Unrated" version of Dumb and Dumber which is the true original vision for the characters. Thanks to that version and The Farrelly's more recent outings e.g. Hall Pasa, it became clear that the Farrelly's actually are pretty mean spirited people deep down. Maybe what made Dumb and Dumber so lovable and balanced was that the Farrelly's pushed the envelope and the studio would reel them back in. But less of that happens these days with the current comedy climate consisting of "comedy" like Family Guy, Nick Swardson, Anchor Man, etc. Though, at least Fam Guy and Anchor Man were more consistent. Anyhow, if you watch the unrated version of Dumb and Dumber, it gets very homophobic and there is much inconsistency like the sequel, which, incredibly almost makes it unwatchable. That's all it takes. A few scenes of schlock. I am surprised they didn't realize that when making the sequel. Oh well.

[@blueeyesaf]

It's unprofessional for a film critic to walk out of a movie and still have an official professional opinion of it. You can say what you saw was bad enough that you walked out but not much else, in my opinion. It doesn't matter if someone says that it doesn't get better, he didn't see the movie, he didn't experience the thing he's supposed to have experienced to have an opinion and publish a score. I haven't seen the movie and have no love for the original and have no intention to see this so don't think I'm trying to defend the movie, I don't have issue with the other two that saw the movie saying it's bad, I don't care, but if you haven't seen the whole movie then you can't really comment on it.

[@WJames-vk2kp]

The first movie was definitely better, but the sequel wasn't as bad as people make it seem.

[@Gaugzilla]

Critics usually go to free screenings. The thing for me is how Matt wore the fact that he walked out of the theater like it was a feather in his cap. When Gene Siskel walked out of "Black Sheep," he admitted it and moved on (and did it 2/3rds of the way through.) Walking out of this halfway through, yet still letting his score be counted is just incredibly unprofessional.

[@nickstoli]

Rule of thumb: a good trailer doesn't guarantee a good movie, but a bad trailer guarantees a bad movie.

[@SuperFranko29]

Drive had an awful trailer, great movie.

[@matthewbecker3997]

SuperFranko29 Uhh dude go back and re-watch the Drive trailer. It was incredible.

[@sonicjrjr14]

I thought Lego Movie was going to be terrible. Marketing lies.

[@postercereal3654]

Not really. The Iron Giant had terrible marketing.

[@benyjets23]

The Edge Of Tomorrow was an example of a movie with a pretty horrible trailer/preview and yet it was highly rated as a movie. Sometimes good movies have bad trailers... Sometimes Bad movies have good ones. I didn't really like the trailers for either of JJ Abrams Star Trek movies, and yet loved them as movies.

[@MrDuneedon]

I don't necessarily disagree with this review -- I haven't seen it, not even half of it -- but I *am* surprised that NO ONE on this panel put this movie in any historical context; that is, no one here gave any opinion about how they felt about the ORIGINAL film. I think that might color, perhaps to a great extent, one's feelings about this one. For example, did Matt like the original? I am curious as to what he thought about it. Anyway...I *had* wanted to go see this in the theater, but...I'm not so sure any more. But for the record, I loved the original film. Speaking of walking out on movies, I really *should* have walked out on 'The Counselor,' but given what you pay for film tickets these days, even matinees, fuck walking out if it ain't free.

[@neilpettit5953]

If you loved the original, it is worth seeing IMO. I'm a fan of the original and I got a kick out of it.

[@MrDuneedon]

Neil Pettit Good to know, Neil. Thanks much. I'm perhaps thinking that Matt hated the original movie, too...but that's just a guess on my part.

[@dangerouslytalented]

Jim Carrey is too old for this kind of movie. With that format, you need internal logic and consistency and plot. Airplane!, (flying high in Australia), Airplane II, Get Smart, Blazing Saddles, There's Something about Mary, Bill and Ted, and other such films have plotlines, story arcs and character motivation.

[@TheTruthiest]

There's a difference between being offensive while making a funny joke and being offensive and thinking that's enough to be funny. Too many people are too stupid to appreciate the difference. I liked the original, but I could tell this one was going to be bad from the trailer. I didn't laugh once.

[@whattheflickshow]

thanks for watching the show!

[@andrewgrove1691]

this wasnt as good

[@democrazy69]

The original is one of the best comedies of all time, but this "sequel" is just a cheap money grab.

[@mainmanmademan]

This was a very uptight reveiw. Racist , insensitive, HELLOOOOOOO ITS "DUMB AND DUMBER " what did u expect. Its comedy. This is why I miss the 90's wayyyyyyy to much pc nowadays.

[@St4rdog]

I don't remember Lloyd sticking his hand up an old ladies vagina in the first one. The sequel was shit. Get over it. The first movie was a classic.

[@ihavenoname6724]

Such a shame this show was cancelled, they were so good!

[@holiday07]

Good to see everyone back. Too bad Christy and Ben weren't arouns during the Interstellar and The Knick finale reviews.

[@NicolasTylerDoyle]

i feel like the shots used in WTF decided to go darker and more saturated colors ? maybe too red ? color balance it, it feels kinda weird

[@GoonOnFire]

The first Dumb and Dumber had jokes that were subtle in the sense that you actually had to think for a second to get them. They weren't in your face, and honestly the humor was very different than most of the other comedies. I had a few friends who weren't too bright who saw the first one and didn't get the jokes. When I watched it with them and explained the jokes, they said "Oh! Now I get it!". They then told me they saw it again and that they loved the movie. The second one took a film that had a ridiculously unique sense of humor and turned it more mainstream to fit everyone. It really sucks. I could see why he walked out. (If reviewing films wasn't his job, that is). Also.... the racist bits... I mean, come on. When I see a film make fun of how "White" white people can be, I love it. It has me dying. Seems like they're trying to play to the - please everyone/ politcally correct side.

[@dianabxh]

Dumb and Dumber To is the best movie I ever saw! Lloyd and Harry were so amazing and so funny because they didn't need to fake themselves and be somebody else, they were so free to be real, even though "by mistake" others thought they were some "respected" persona. I laughed a lot, because I have seen this in many real life situations. I liked a lot, that Harry never asked the question why his parents were asian and not white. By the way, is it racism when white people adopt black or asian or ... children?! This is nonsense! I strongly recommend this movie! It is more than funny, it is a Great movie! ❤️😍❤️

[@guillermosanchez8843]

Shut the fuck up you inbred, uneducated, simpleton, virgin.

[@dangerouslytalented]

Let me predict the plot twist: It's not them that needs the kidney, it's the daughter.

[@Gaugzilla]

Nope

[@lucristianx]

:throws into the bushes:

[@ali14chahrour]

No, Lloyd learns he might be the father, but it turns out neither of them are.

[@PunkNation26]

Spoiler alert, Harry faked needing a kidney. The movie was basically a troll job for the diehard fans of the first movie. Another spoiler alert, they get their Mutts N Cutts van back by stealing it back from the guy who traded it to Lloyd for the moped in the first movie. 20 seconds later, they jump a hill with it, then land and blow out the tires.

[@videogameattic]

The first one was much better, I agree, scattered and all over the place, being a huge fan of the original dumb and dumber, I was disappointed.

[@YouTubeUserID]

I saw the movie. I'm Chinese. How was that scene with Harry's parents racist? They're Chinese and Harry's too dumb to realize that they can't possibly be his biological parents. The Chinese couple had accents and spoke Cantonese. That's what many China-born Chinese people, living in America, do. If the Farrelly Brothers were gonna go through with the gag, they had to pick one race that wasn't white so it might as well have been yellow. What I find irritating is that Matt Atchity would just accuse racism because it's fashionbly convenient for a white guy to accuse other white guys -- the Farrelly Brothers -- of being racist. As if throwing the accusation of racism in a movie review would make one, a virtuous nobleman. I really disliked what Matt said and thought it was irresponsible and cheap. BTW, Dumb & Dumber To is above-average; I'd rate it a 6.0.

[@1nuriko]

I'm chinese too and I didn't see it as racist...he'll she was speaking canto!!! You know how rare that is!?!? The whole joke was about misunderstanding..and um..it's not racist because there are tons of old asians that do speak like that...it would have been rAcist if they were wearing china rice hats, wearing chinese clothes eating fortune cookies, bowing, mixing asian culture...it wasn't. And the asian parents knew what was being misunderstood, so it's not racist when the joke isn't on them. Always trying to pull the race card....

[@SerenityNoww]

I'm not Chinese, and my first thought when Matt accused the scene of being racist was a confused one. In fact further to that I would say that this one of the few scenes in the movie that didn't suck donkey balls. But uber political correctness is all the rage right now. We must all get offended on other people's behalf.

[@Lawrd.Rivguz]

"We are all here, and we have all actually watch the movie we're to discuss." - said wtf never

[@PinkoJack]

Arent you a professional critic Matt? Kind of unprofessional walking out of a movie halfway.

[@sha11235]

There are times when critics have to say, "Oh, fuck this shit!"

[@zacharysiple783]

Roger Ebert walked out of Caligula and a few movies as well. I write IMDB reviews and don't finish a small few movies. Some movies aren't worth murdering 2 hours of your life to.

[@Tall_Order]

This is something I may actually go see, because for once its a sequal to something rather than a reboot... What we really need though is another three stooges movie. I liked the one that came out a couple years ago. :D

[@samuelbarclay6625]

Good to see all four of you!

[@polg0003]

Just got done watching this movie after seeing your review. Couldn't disagree more. Awesome movie.

[@ErgoDog]

No one is going to judge you people for liking this movie. Go see it, but don't hate on these reviewers for not enjoying it.

[@SpectrumPOV]

Didn't Matt walk out of the movie Tammy because the a/c was broken in the theater? Now its RT score is half that.

[@JohnGottschalk]

Woooo, the crew's back together!

[@lucristianx]

I agree with the fact that it didn't take itself seriously. At least not as much as the original Dumb and Dumber. However they did say they had more fun with this movie. I can only guess its because the story was more free. I enjoyed it. Didn't care for the ending It did feel inconsistent. But I laughed through out the movie.

[@drjameselliott]

Great to see the gang back! I don't know why people are complaining about your analysis when most people agree, even the exit polls from the audience are bad.

[@Dennisjay9]

I just don't get these movies. Its really really hard to write convincing dumb guy humor and these guys do a bad job at it. Its what almost killed Anchorman 2 for me. Like no one can possibly be that stupid and be a functioning human being. I get that its a movie but its still annoying and not funny. I remember only seeing a trailer for this in the theater and cringing. The only parts I laughed at where the other characters reactions to how utterly stupid these guys were. like the shit in the bathroom moment was funny. but I guess people enjoy it, I just wish I got why its so funny.

[@kiersh]

I'm sorry but if a reviewer (i won't use the term critic) chooses to walk out of a movie, he can not review it. Lots a lot of integrity with this one. Also, Christy lost a lot by citing "Newsroom" as something "great"

[@c.vaughn7371]

They should have done a crossover where Harry and Lloyd join the Newsroom. Would have improved both shows.

[@rhettgedies7467]

It had a lot to live up to. I felt it did better than I expected it would, but it still wasn't near as good. The humor a lot of the time was much more crass/nasty than the first film (literally 60% of the time, the audience of the movie theater I was in was going "eeeeeeeew" and "awwwwww, nasty" as opposed to heavy laughter that the original movie brings). The toilet scene of the first film was gross, yes....but it was hilarious. A good amount of the jokes in this were too nasty to physically laugh at because your mind was so busy with how gross it was. Besides that, the film re-birthed all the old classic gags and sayings without making them seem forced (except for a few like the "second most annoying sound in the world"). However, the credits almost made the film feel like didn't have faith in itself (as 50% of the screen is filled with footage from the first film almost as if to give the audience a time to return to the first and get some real good laughs due to good memory). It was a fair sequel, but it ultimately just made me crave to watch the original again.

[@captainspazma2002]

How can you judge a film if you havnt seen it. The only thing shocking is that shirt he has on.

[@CrookedShoeTales]

Does he not get the simple fact that if you walk out you cant have an opinion other then you walked out.

[@evieulleden]

Really glad that the whole gang is finally back!

[@neilpettit5953]

I have to disagree with WTF here. I enjoyed the movie and thought it was on par with the original. This is a movie that knows what it is and does not pretend to be something else. Of course, if you didn't like the first it is unlikely you will enjoy this one. These guys seem to be in the minority as far as movie viewers go, as the theater was filled with laughs where I was watching it.

[@neilpettit5953]

Nope, not from the south, but thank you for the snide remark.

[@Codogcodog]

Just saw it, left my brain at the door and had some good laughs. Probably won't watch it again but had an alright time.

[@HermanFalckHow]

Guys... The movie is called dumb and dumber to... In what universe did you think this was going to be anything else then what it ended up being? The word is maybe not funny, but it did make me laugh... alot actually. In a world were everything has to be dark and sad, I find it really nice that movies like this exist.

[@artistryartistry7239]

At around 7:55 i don't understand why she cut the guy off to make a less interesting point. Uh, let him finish his thought?

[@ThePowerPCHub]

Holy fucking shit. One of the reviewers didn't even sit through the screening? Then HOW THE FUCK CAN HE REVIEW IT? Do they not understand comedy? Did they not watch the first one? Did they not even read the fucking title? Unbelievable. Unsubscribed and good riddance. That wasn't a review. It was a fucking lecture on how to ruin a comedy.

[@TomWhaley621]

I'm not the biggest fan of Jim Carrey, and the first movie isn't exactly my favorite either, but my friend convinced me to go and see this anyways. It's nothing more than a dumb comedy... I mean, it's even in the title. When you walk into the theater, leave your brain at the door. Having said that, enjoy the movie for what it is. It was a nice throwback to the lesser serious comedies of the 90's/early 2000's, and it did exactly what it was supposed to do. I thought it was surprisingly funny, and enjoyable throughout. I love the TYT channel, and I get that they lean towards the left on their political and social views (I do too), but come on guys... Not everything needs to be super PC. It's a mindless comedy. As offensive as some of it might have been, let it have a little shock value. What's the point in an adult comedy without a little danger? Part of the fun is in the way they toe the line... sure they might step over it a few times, but again, leave your brain at the door and enjoy it for what it is. I don't think any of the targeted humor (Asian parents, ALS guy, etc.) was particularly hateful, or serious. I mean, the protagonists themselves are unreliable narrators. They're made out to be goons. That's the draw. When Jim Carrey accuses the Asian mother of speaking gibberish, you should clearly be able to understand how stupid his character is to think that. That's the joke! These reviewers need to lighten up. I immediately discarded the opinions of the person who walked out and the guy who didn't even see it. It was a harmless comedy. Nothing more, nothing less. Lighten up and have a laugh.

[@St4rdog]

It's not an adult comedy. It's PG-13. The original was not a "mindless comedy" no matter how hard you try to convince yourself. It was well-constructed and had great acting/drama to go along with it. The sequel lacked all of that.

[@chanrichard911]

You're upset just because they had a difference of opinion. You found it funny, none of them found any of it funny. How on earth could they give a 'dumb comedy' a good review if they never came close to laughing?

[@TomWhaley621]

Richard Chan I just thought they were being too harsh on it. It's totally fine if they didn't find it funny. They were being too serious with the political correctness of it though.

[@St4rdog]

Bob Bobby I agree. Dumb & Dumber is a great movie.

[@LumpyAdams]

St4rdog Haha, awwe, little boy pretending he's always liked Dumb & Dumber. Dip shit wannabe film elitists, such as yourself, did the same shit with the Big Lebowski. They trashed it, but when the film gained cult status they jumped right on the bandwagon and it became "brilliant" all of a sudden.

[@dherko]

I may be in the minority here but it didn't even dawn on me that those two particular scenes would be offensive or racist. I laughed not at the asian couple or the person with ALS but at Cary and Daniels. I think that was the goal of the creators. While people still hold onto this "we need to treat people different" attitude however well meaning we will never move past the prejudice. There is a South Park episode that touches on this about the boys changing the town flag.

[@leastlikedcritic7529]

The movie is titled Dumb and Dumber To, that tells you it's not gonna be a great film.

[@2000dpp]

Huge fan of you guys here - especially Ben for your work throughout the tyt universe. I guys I have to disagree on this one. I laughed so hard at this movie it hurt. I guess my question would be what did you expect of this film? I also find it a little childish of Matt to walk out. Sometimes we get so caught up in hating something we no longer have an open mind.

[@jessechuff]

This movie cannot be any worse than an Adam Sandler film. It's just simply not possible. Also, Matt needs to stick it out through the whole movie, what with that being his job and all. At least Ben gives good points and isn't just ranting saying "IT'S BAD IT'S BAD STUPID BAD".

[@AndrewColomy]

I refuse to take Rotten Tomatoes seriously for criticism towards comedy. These are the same people that hold Home Alone I and II at 54% and 24%, when both of those movies are classics.

[@pipsqueak67]

I'm asian and I thought that part with Harry's parents were friken hilarious! Maybe he needs to lighten up a little. I loved it. It is stupid humour that's what is great about it.

[@user-ew2fb5pp1t]

I've seen it and it's hilarious!

[@sting0072007]

Dont listen to them, if you liked the first one you'll like this one, it is hilarious, it cheered my day up

[@oO_ox_O]

Huh, no comparison to the first movie?

[@lucy1102]

thank god the original group is back

[@brianmarchman631]

I have to agree with one of the previous sit at home critics. Matt Atchity is an admirable movie buff and great at giving perspective on a story. However in this case I think he got it dead wrong. First, I think one big reasons the first D & D was a success was because of the amazing soundtrack. It was a musical story for us high school grads of 1993 and a great way to tell us that we can all be idiots sometimes. I think that the jokes in this one weren't as good as the first movie but they were what you would expect from the Farrelly Bros. The brothers have hit a streak lately where everything they do is wrong. I believe that this is due to the fact everything in the U.S. seems to be offensive nowadays. (except 2.5 men or Big bang theory). Meaning if it sucks it is okay just as long as you don't offend anyone. But if the Farrelly Brothers don't take chances and force the industry to take risks or use off color material in films, than what are we left with? All movies will be as unfunny as 2.5 Men? Matt Lighten up! You need a new Tommy Bahama blanket and some cocoa to cuddle up with. Happy Thanksgiving Buddy!

[@MatthewLedZepfan]

Out of pure OCD, I could never walk out on a movie no matter how bad it is. I'll watch the whole movie just so I can legitamately tear it apart

[@St4rdog]

You sat through The Da Vinci Code??

[@nori9686]

So it is that bad....

[@MarcosIsABaritone]

Ben seems sexy to me here... not weird but pleasantly re-welcomed. Geeze, I must have missed him more than I even knew!

[@angrycat225]

why is alonso there if he didn't watch the movie?

[@freshrr2]

I think he knew they would tear this movie a new asshole, and him being him, wanted to sit there and relish that, while thinking, simultaneously about relish, smothered all over his copy of (insert pretentious Lars Von trier film here) and enjoying da fuk out of every last moment of, of .. God damnit, I care so little I can't even finish my hateful troll-esq rant. Now THATS depressing..

[@angrycat225]

lol, i think so too,

[@KeithBallardA]

Alonso is on the panel for the same reason that anyone who hasn't seen the movie is ever on the panel. They record each week's movie reviews all in one go, so the people who haven't seen the particular movie are there to review some of the other movies they cover that week.

[@angrycat225]

o i get it now.

[@dash4800]

Hey Matt Atchity, what did you people do to rottentomatoes? The new site design has ruined it. You need to fix it. No more community, comments, sharing. Whats the point of it if you can't share reviews and discuss movies?

[@Darryl-drok17]

Shockingly racist? I saw this with my buddy, who happens to be Chinese, and he loved that part especially lol.

[@0680496]

this was hilarious when i watched it high, not sure how the movie does when whatched sober

[@la2ypig]

Are there any movies you like ??? Generally you act pretty tough on movies

[@Robkinggozer]

It wasn't that bad, fun to see these characters again, some good laughs. Never comes close to the first, but still a 6 out of 10 for me

[@598superchris]

The first time I saw this movie I found it funny but the second time I saw I decided to agree with the critics,the sequel was dumb,stupid,mentally retarded and offensive.

[@Scoob505]

review boardwalk empire...

[@Guernicaman]

What happened to Jim Carrey?

[@Billshouse27]

these reviewers are way too serious comparing this movie to Academy movies, this movie was hilarious and everyone in the theater were laughing the entire time. I want to see it again. It was #1 over the weekend and will continue to be strong in the box office.

[@daytradingnl4734]

“His parents were a Chinese couple, which was so racist”. Good thing I only care about real racism, so I could just laugh at this.

[@BRADYSMITH8395]

I liked the first dumb and dumber, but I don't want to see this one. The first one had something witty about it, no matter how dumb it got. I think it's like what you guys said about internal consistency. The first one had it's world completely realistic, and the only thing out of it was the 2 main characters. By everything I've seen so far, it seems like they forgot that with the sequel and tried to make the whole world wacky.

[@peanutbutler80]

I mean, thos is why I don't listen to critics, I thought it was hilarious! Damn the Cable Guy had bad reviews and I thought it was hilarious

[@Chubzdoomer]

lol @ the dweeb from Rotten Tomatoes crying because a scene was "racist" and claiming to have walked out on a movie that isn't even all that long. This, in a nutshell, is why film critics SUCK!

[@BrotherAlpha]

11:45 It has dropped to just 24% positive. That's really bad. I was expecting 40% to 60%.

[@KarstenOkk]

Why do some of these people go to these reviews if they didn't watch it themselves? Pff.

[@NeoSe7ens]

How can you review a film that you walked out of? Even if the movie is bad, you still have to watch the whole damn thing in order to give a proper review.

[@artistryartistry7239]

While you might be right in the case of a movie like Interstellar, you're not right in the case of a movie like this. In slapstick movies, they are what they are from start to finish. I've never experienced a movie that goes from inept, boring, and a waste of my time to masterful, riveting, and worth watching. So once the director and writer have proved they don't know what they're doing, watching till the end is not just unnecessary, it's dumb. Knowing a movie is that bad, and being able to convey to the audience "don't see this!" is fulfilling his function as a reviewer.

[@NeoSe7ens]

bob jones I don't appreciate a movie reviewer who does this and for me he loses some credibility. It reminds me of Rex Reed's review of a movie of which he also walked out of. Sure, he served his part in what he'd seen but this isn't an acceptable review for me.

[@wingitprod]

Reasonable point but it illustrates the movie was irredeemable to this critic.

[@sha11235]

Gene walked out of Black Sheep, and he reviewed it.

[@wolfman8325]

He still manages to give it the correct score though...

[@oO_ox_O]

The colors, the colors.

the only film ive walked out of was Need for speed

[@DanielSmith-fg5im]

people have been laughing at each other for thousands of years I can guarantee that every country is laughing at one another especially the United States there's a lotta reasons for laughing at another person and you're probably guilty of at least a handful of them I laughed my ass off at that scene with Lloyd and Harry's parents and I didn't even have a single racist bone in my body

[@theadamblock]

I laughed a few times. Original was one of my favorites growing up. My friend had a better time than I did overall. I'd give it a 4.2

[@PunkNation26]

This movie was basically 2 hours of the Jim Carrey sander toe nail trimming scene from the first movie. Harry was made to be dumber than dirt. The plot was nonsensical and turned out to be a pile of bullshit. Lloyd survives having his kidney removed in the back of car which was bullshit. Harry didn't know what sex was, which was bullshit. The first movie had an actual serious plot with occasional hilarious comedy. The second movie was over the top nonsensical bullshit.

[@PurushaDesa]

Jesus, Matt. You got out-watched by Ben. How's that for comedy?

[@dave1555]

I allways disagree with whatever these reviewers say. So looks like i will enjoy this.

[@ReallyBadSeed]

Absolutely HATED the first "Dumb & Dumber".....and I like dumb comedy. But there's a difference between dumb funny, and dumb....just to be dumb and which is NOT funny. 99% of the first film was dumb for the sake of being dumb and wasn't funny. No desire to see this garbage.

[@nero12345789]

I agree. The first Dumb and Dumber is to stupid. I didn't laugh once. I have no desire to see this one

[@St4rdog]

The first Dumb and Dumber was a great comedy. Search for "Dumb and Dumber favorite scene", where he gets robbed by an old lady, then the indoor scene afterwards. You seriously don't think that's good movie-making/acting/drama? What's "dumb" about it?

[@ReallyBadSeed]

St4rdog It was not a great comedy, it was barely one at all. Every bit of its humor is obvious, forced, and quite plainly.....annoying and NOT amusing.

[@ReallyBadSeed]

FINAL WORD: "Dumb & Dumber" is NOT funny, and is one of the worst so-called comedies ever produced. Anyone who likes that unfunny garbage should be deeply ashamed.

[@leastlikedcritic7529]

I saw the movie, and thought it was pretty funny, not a masterpiece but I don't think it was trying to be, and there where a lot of movies out there, that are much worse then this to walk out on.

[@CriticalEatsJapan]

What a shame...

[@PhantasmagoricSplend]

With Dumb and Dumber To you have to just take it for what it is. I liked the first half but the second half didn't get as many laughs. It was okay. Matt is such a snob for walking out. People are too butthurt over being PC these days.

[@TheCanuckdian]

This is a real shame. The Farelly brothers may have destroyed my nostalgic memories of these great characters. I think I'll still go and see it and form my own opinion. This fat guy Matt seems to have a joyless life. Get him off the show, the rest of you are great.

[@shashankjamdagni4817]

Why are you doing the review.. if you walked out .. WATCH the full movie...

[@movieman82us]

Not as good as the first one, but I still very much enjoyed myself. They were definitely too hard on the movie. But whatever. Comedy is incredibly subjective.

[@SuperRevolution9]

I think they don't like it because Seth Rogan isn't in there.

[@e.t.464]

Losers. I loved it. P.S. You don't walk out of a film if its your job. Now thats dumb. The best part was they made fun of everyone.

[@Anthony19byrne]

I don't really know how to react to the review. On one hand l want to say "ah here we go again with the PC bullshit that can't let go of real life for an hour or two & enjoy comedy" & on the other hand i wanna say "it sounds like not enough care was put into". So guess i'll go & form my own opinion.

[@TenguWarrior92]

He says he got better things to do with his time, and then he got that hawaiin shirt (from there on nobody took you seriously. And that woman should have done the laundry instead of doing this review. The last time a woman made me laugh was like never.

[@Savor1979]

After all that its number 1 at the box office...Funny

[@coosoorlog]

I didn't even enjoy the first film that much. Imagine my agony watching this one.

[@bigcomcast]

They all hate it!! It must be good!!

[@hyrdrogenalpha]

12 minutes and eighteen seconds to tell you the movie sucks. I could tell from the first half of this show that this movie sucks! Come on guys!

[@RetroRepair]

How can this haircut be here talking about the movie when he didn't watch most of it?

[@pixelTRE]

Can we kick this Matt guy out of the show?

[@zacharysiple783]

Roger Ebert walked out of Caligula and a few movies as well. I write IMDB reviews and don't finish a small few movies. Some movies aren't worth murdering 2 hours of your life to.

[@ZyxthePest]

Context for the racist part, since these people don't seem to get it. Lloyd, being an idiot, makes some really dumb remarks towards Harry's adopted mother. Kevin Smith had a great comeback for a similar situation in Chasing Amy, where Banky makes similar conversation in reference to lesbians. Look at the character who's SAYING these things. The humor isn't in what the person is saying, it's in how dumb it is to say that. It's Always Sunny does the same damn thing and people love it. In short, do your fucking job.

[@povertyXart]

First the personal, ridiculous hate-filled Interstellar Spoiler review. Now this. One guy who walked out yet still submits a review, and another who hadn't seen it at all giving input. I started watching and enjoying this channel from the GOT reviews, but I no longer respect these "critics". Ben, Christy, Cenk & John keep doing your thing!
