Dumb and Dumber Poster Dumb and Dumber

Sometimes, a movie just can't live up to its advertising campaign (or its name, for that matter). Dumb and Dumber is one such case. Take the newspaper ad, for example, filled with all those fake, witty quotes. That's rather clever (although not o...

Fever Pitch Poster Fever Pitch

I will be surprised if this film does well in New York City. Yankees fans, accustomed to success, are still smarting from last year's humiliating debacle, and a romantic comedy that capitalizes on the Red Sox's triumph is unlikely to pack theaters ...

Green Book Poster Green Book

A serious Oscar contender at a time when issues of racial interaction hold a prominent spot in the daily news cycle, Green Book is an Odd Couple­-structured motion picture with a strong overlay of social conscience. Although limited in how gr...

Hall Pass Poster Hall Pass

In 1998, Bobby and Peter Farrelly pushed the raunchy comedy envelope with their breakout hit, There's Something about Mary. Since then, two things have changed: the Farrelly Brothers have become softer (Exhibit A: their PG-13 2005 romantic comedy, ...

Kingpin Poster Kingpin

Movies have always used the "from the makers of..." line. You know, "a new film from the makers of Lawrence of Arabia" or "a new film from the makers of Glory". Kingpin employs this time-honored tradition, except, in this case, it proudly cla...

Me, Myself & Irene Poster Me, Myself & Irene

After taking a break to become involved in the production of the small coming-of-age drama Outside Providence, the Farrelly Brothers are at it again. Their 1998 hit, There's Something About Mary, will forever be known for breaking the semen barrie...

Shallow Hal Poster Shallow Hal

Since they burst upon the motion picture scene with Dumb and Dumber, the Farrelly Brothers, Bobby and Peter, have been known as the Kings of Vulgar Comedy. So, given the Farrellys' reputation and a title with the word "shallow" in it, one might ea...

There's Something about Mary Poster There's Something about Mary

The Farrelly Brothers' first two films, Dumb and Dumber and Kingpin, were outrageous, uncouth, bawdy, and unapologetically lowbrow. Their third film, There's Something about Mary, is all of those things and one more: hilarious. I rarely chuckl...
