Memorable, crazy movie

Fanciful, disturbing, and wildly original, it announces the arrival of a fresh, bold voice in American cinema.

Great movie. Not sure what people expected but I found it highly entertaining.

Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.

There's not much to say. On the plus side,it has decent cartoon caricatures of Harry and Lloyd and good voice likenesses; Matt Frewer in particular does a very convincing Jim Carrey. Unfortunately, nothing else is noteworthy. Each episode centers around the two taking an odd job and inevitably failing through wacky cartoon antics, accompanied by their pet, Kitty Kat (a beaver). The only difference between episodes is a change of setting and they all play out in the most predictable, clichéd way possible. Even the intro seems passionless, where the the two bounce around in random costumes to a bland instrumental track. There's zero creativity to be found, which is what made other cheaply-animated shows like Dexter's Laboratory succeed where this one failed, lasting just one season. Skip it.

As a fan of the original Dumb and Dumber movie, I was hoping I would find this at least slightly amusing, however I don't believe I laughed at all while watching this show. This came out at a time when there was also an Ace Ventura, and The Mask animated series. So there was a glut of Jim Carey themed TV shows on at the time, so they were just churning out these kinds of shows just to capitalize on the hype. The animation was pretty bad, Lloyd and Harry were dawn so comically distorted that it looks pretty grotesque rather than charming. The plots are formulaic, and low-brow even for a children's show. They seem to follow the same basic theme: Throwing Lloyd and Harry into an odd job and see how they can screw it up. Now I know you must be thinking right now: "The show is for kids, what do you expect?", well I have higher expectations than this. Take a show like The Real Ghostbusters for example. That was an animated show based off a movie that didn't (at first, but the quality declined) pander to cheap jokes and formulaic plots. They actually were well written and made the show stand out as a separate entity from it's movie counterpart. This is the standard that I have for all animated shows based off popular movies. I would be remiss if I failed to mention Lloyd's fantasy sequences. In the film they work because of the bold, adult humor contained within, that gave us a glimpse insides Lloyd's juvenile mind. In the animated series they don't serve any purpose other than to make him look like a Walter Mitty type figure.In conclusion, don't waste your money on the DVD's. And if you're interested in animated shows based on movies, than check out The Real Ghostbusters instead.

The Movie "Dumb and Dumber" was the coolest, but something about turning movies into cartoons just doesn't seem right (with Free Willy being a slight acception). When the D&D cartoon was announced, I figured "What the Hey? Let's just see it once"WHAT WAS I THINKING??!!This cartoon series was terrible. Mainly, it's because the gross jokes that made the movie cool are gone. I admit that I liked Matt Frewer on "Honey, I Shrunk The Kids", but he's no JIM CARREY!! The guy from Coach plays Harry, but he's always picked dumb characters to play, and this was the bottom of his barrel.I have no complaint about turning movies into cartoons, but don't trash it up!!
