In November 2014, Dumb & Dumber to ("Dumb and Agua 2") was released. Different from the prequel spin-off of 2003, which changed the starring roles, this one uses the two starring actors 20 years ago. Although the protagonist seems more mentally retarded and anti-childhood at first glance, it is an authentic sequel. However, at that time, "Interstellar" and other blockbuster films were released, and almost no audience in China paid attention to these two old white men with pleated faces and cute sellers.
Recently, thanks to the blessing of flight TV, I accidentally watched both movies, only to realize that I missed what a typical comedy series. Of course, as you do, I understand that this series is full of characters, plots, and jokes that are "too stupid to look straight", but it just chuckles! There is no need to say more about Jim Carrey’s escape and Yan Yi. Jeff Daniels’s seemingly dull, but in fact hidden high-energy performances often produce unexpected laughter; the film not only has intuitive and easy-to-understand physical jokes in the world, but also A linguistic joke that means a long way to be understood; the protagonist Luther, a low-minded man, provides an ugly-looking joke, and there is no shortage of gameplay in which the rich and high-minded are insulted. In general, it is an all-round and high-density attempt to amuse you. At the same time, the two sets of stories with highly similar road film patterns and structures are not fragmented in terms of logical rhythm and transition. In the end, the story always falls under the dumbness of the two protagonists. The innocence and purity of friendship with immortality send a wave of warmth and healing, thus achieving a coherent and smooth joyful enjoyment.
It has to be said that this kind of comedy with a silly, lacking and good friend partner with a low mental age has long been a classic cliché. In the early 20th century, there were Laurel and Hardy, and this year there was a SMOSH movie by Ian and Anthony. But like the "Dumb and Agua" series, although they have become famous in the television era, they can also make waves before the strong dramas of the Internet era 20 years later. It is really rare. It can be seen how deeply and flexibly this series has grasped this comedy, and with what kind of feelings it is trying to prove that it will last forever, regardless of crow's feet and age spots. Such a posture makes the two "Dumb and Agua" appear to be somewhat cherished.
