The experience of sitting through ?Dumb and Dumber To,? which reunites stars Jim Carrey and Jeff Daniels with directors Bobby and Peter Farrelly 20 years after their maiden voyage to the lower depths of imbecility, is something like watching an aging MLB slugger wind down his career in the minor leagues. The stakes are far lower, he?s slow off the blocks, his joints are creaky, and his batting average is a pale shadow of what it once was, but the swing and the stance still look the same, and you can?t accuse him of not suiting up. Sporadically very funny, mostly very tedious, and sometimes truly vile, this 18-years-too-late sequel nonetheless exhibits a certain puerile purity of purpose, and should accrue healthy profits playing to the nostalgia of the dumb and the dumb at heart.

It might be worth seeing just to laugh at two morons. But first you need to see Gone Girl, Birdman and Whiplash. Three outstanding films that have a lot of Oscar buzz.

Gone girl was awesome, I saw the Judge two weeks ago and it sucked

Jim Carrey's schtick is old. Yeah, I'll watch it but not until I can download it online and watch it here at home.

?Dumb and Dumber To? Breaks Out Laughing with $38 Million Box Office Win

The big debut for "Dumb and Dumber To" was more than a nostalgia trip. Fans of the original turned out, but so did young people -- with 44 percent of the audience under the age of 25. Men made up 55 percent of the crowd, which gave the comedy follow-up a "B'" CinemaScore. And the fact that it was the first live-action comedy in the marketplace didn't hurt.
