- In this episode, Siskel and Ebert review: Speechless, Dumb and Dumber, Legends of the Fall, Little Women, Death and the Maiden and The Madness of King George.
How can you not give a thumbs up to a movie comedy that you admit almost had you hospitalized from laughing so hard????? Cmon Roger just give in already....Dumb and Dumber was a thoroughly enjoyable comedy...at least Siskel got it!!
roger L. how you give a thumbs down to a comedy that makes you laugh. i always liked roger but hes being so snobby uptight movie critic here ...
He later did say that he should have ranked Dumb and Dumber higher after seeing The Jerky Boys and Billy Madison, which he thought were movies trying to copy the D&D formula.
Dumb & Dumber Is one of the best comedies ever made , a stone cold 90's classic and my all time favorite Jim Carrey film.
dumb and dumber is hilarious
This was a great episode. All the reviews are quite interesting.
@7:11 Legends of the Fall. Until watching this review yesterday, I did not realize that Henry Thomas who played "Samuel" was the same actor who played "Elliott" in E.T. but now in hindsight it's like "Oh yeah, of course". The same kid who fell in love with an alien with a big head and long fingers went on to be machine-gunned to death and have his heart sliced out by Brad Pitt. It's all clear now. ;-)
Death and the Maiden was one of the best films of the year. And it was Sigourney Weaver's best performance and should've won the Oscar that yr.
I remember watching that one on the IFC Channel way back in the day, I've got it on DVD now it's a great film.
Death and the Maiden is probably one of my favorite movie's of all time.
Dumb and Dumber is hilarious and very stupid. How he didn’t find the scene with Jeff Daniel’s insides falling out at Mary’s House to be as funny as the parakeet scene is incredible. That still makes me laugh uncontrollably after all these years.

Imagine saying "I laughed so hard I nearly had to be hospitalized" and then NOT recommending that comedy movie?!?
Rough look for our guy Rog here.
It was a 1984 sheepdog Roger.
Hey Roger old buddy old pal, Dumb and Dumber is an affirmed classic!
Legends of the Fall is a good movie and reminds me of the tv show Yellowstone a bit especially Brad Pitt's character. Felt bad for the oldest son.
It's a masterpiece of love, sacrifice and despair ....it gutted me the first time watching it at 19 While in the Marines over in Okinawa missing my family
They both gave Junior a thumbs up? What?!
2:57 A DAY-um thing - Gene Siskel XD
What is with the TV and doll it makes the screen so small.
I forgot that Roger didnt vote thumbs up on Dumb & Dumber and I wonder if, like Home Alone, he questioned that decision later. D&D was just as smart as Wayne's World IMO and had true laugh out loud moments because the movie allowed the viewer to let their guard down and just enjoy the silliness. I thought the laxative scene was one of the funniest and frequently overlooked moments in the movie.
Home Alone 3 came out 7 years after the first film, and 5 from the second. He held a negative opinion about home alone for 7 years that we know of. Maybe he change his thoughts later on.
i didn`t like Home Alone then or now... thought Mac Caul was annoying
he said he laughed but still gave it a thumb down...what a snob here...
When it comes to movies about specific politics/social issues, you're damned if you do and damned if you don't.
I wonder what Dumb and Dumber scene Roger was thinking about.
When the blind kid buys a dead bird.
Here’s hoping you can find their Worst of 94 episode.
Pitchforks down, everyone, Dumb and Dumber didn’t make that list.
I usually agree with Roger but he was the picky one in this episode.
how can you give a comedy you admit made you laugh hard a thumbs down? snobby uptight critic behavior ... rare roger L
Okay so just to recap, everybody: Roger gives "Junior" thumbs up but not "Dumb and Dumber" despite being nearly hospitalized for laughing so hard. And Brad Pitt needs a haircut.
Wife says, “Long hair Brad Pitt is best Pitt”. Sorry Roger.
Beautiful man
Brad haircut: Yes or no.
Roger's take on Dumb and Dumber is weird. He's referring to the parakeet scene btw. It was funny but it wasn't THAT funny. Driving the hitman crazy was funnier. Oh well.
I agree didn`t think i was that scene was that funny in the first place..hitman was funnier
Criticizing a movie because you don't like the actor's haircut? Stupid stupid stupid.
Nah. It's always fair game to criticize a movie for anachronisms. His haircut is part of his costume and should make sense for the period. If it does then Roger's wrong, if it doesn't then he's right to be distracted by it. He still loved the movie though, so no reason for anyone to be offended.
never heard of "speechless" - its relegated to the truly forgotten movies. Legends of the Fall is really sappy - the character of Susannah is awful. Little Women is .....ok
