Dumb and Dumberer: When Harry Met Lloyd is an American comedy film. It is the second film in the Dumb and Dumber film series and a stand-alone prequel to the 1994 film Dumb and Dumber. However, after the release of Dumb and Dumber To (2014), it became non-canon. The film was directed by Troy Miller and based on the characters created by the Farrelly brothers from the original film. The film was poorly received by critics; however, it was a mild domestic box office success considering its budget, taking in just under $40 million. The subtitle is inspired by the film When Harry Met Sally….
It’s the 1980s, and it’s the moment that Lloyd Christmas and Harry Dunne meet. The two individuals are seen by many as ‘special’, and become best friends as soon as they meet. Principal Collins and his lover, the lunch lady Ms. Heller, want to make as much money out of scams, and their next idea is to create a special needs class. Ms. Heller is the teacher, and they have assigned Harry and Lloyd to round the special students up. School News Reporter Jessica is suspicious though, and desperately tries to find out the truth, even if it means gaining Harry and Lloyd’s help.
