Our take on Dumb and Dumber

Peter Farrelly's 1994 comedy runs on the boundless idiocy of Lloyd and Harry, two friends whose stupidity is genuinely hard to describe. When the beautiful Mary loses a suitcase full of money before heading to Aspen, the pair—who've found it—resolve to return it, launching a cross-country road trip strewn with mishaps. Naturally, once in Aspen they blow through the cash and compete for Mary's affection. Broad, gleefully lowbrow and built on physical gags and dim-witted misunderstandings, it's a pure vehicle for its leads' rapport. It suits viewers who enjoy unapologetic dumb-comedy and don't need subtlety, and anyone in the mood to switch off and laugh.
