One of the most influential last names in movie comedy that gets the least recognition is “Farrelly.” Maybe its because Bobby and Peter’s films have gotten progressively less popular with fans and critics in the 15-plus years they’ve been making them. Maybe it’s because their motto is probably something along the lines of “goofiness and toilet humor above all.” But no matter how “sophisticated” you feel your tastes in “humor” are, the Farrellys know how to get a laugh, period, and their work has inspired dozens of movies you’ve laughed at over the last decade or so.
Dumb and Dumber would probably have to take top spot for me.
What a mistake.
The Bob Saget parts. That part where Harry (I think it was) was in that girl's room and he just bursts out "Especially in the ass!!!" lol It's kinda funny going back and seeing Shia LaBeouf in there as well.
So yes, not great by any means, and nowhere near as good as the original. But I wouldn't call it a horrible mistake either.
Of course these are the same people that tell me they thought movies like Greenberg and Cyrus were pretty damn funny. Didn't find those funny or care for them too much either. Especially Greenberg.
Hall Pass looks kind of stupid though.
But Dumb and Dumber and There's Something about Marry and Me, Myself and Irene were good movies.
EDIT:
Oh, and actually Stuck on You and Shallow Hal are good movies as well. I've seen more of these than I thought.
