	CNN - Farrelly Brothers laughing all the way to the bank - July 27, 1998
		The Farrelly brothers are the new kings of over-the-top comedy, and that is evident in "Mary."
		The writing-directing brothers made their mark with 1994's "Dumb and Dumber." They followed up in 1996 with "Kingpin," an Amish bowling comedy.
		The Farrelly brothers are winning, too, laughing all the way to the bank.

	The Film Journal...Passionate and informed film criticism from an auteurist perspective.
		In a certain way, the Farrellys' trajectory resembles that of Jerry Lewis (although it's true that we could make a study about how many inventors of American comedy, from Chaplin to John Landis, ended their careers with their old audiences hostile to them).
		The Farrellys have been, in their last few films, progressively emphasizing another aspect of their work which was already present from the beginning: the sentimental drama.
		The Farrellys' typical hero is the man who is in constant fear of being rejected by the object of his desires.

	cantonrep.com - Farrelly brothers prove oddly sentimental in lastest movie
		In the past, the Farrellys have managed to offend practically everyone, from advocates for the disabled to performers such as Carnie Wilson and Camryn Manheim, who bashed their last film, “Shallow Hal,” for its portrayal of overweight women.
		The brothers not only hired a pair of conjoined twins, Lori and Reba Schappell, as technical consultants, but when they learned that Reba was pursuing a career as a country singer, they put one of her songs at the end of the movie.
		When the Farrellys were teenagers, one of their friends, Danny Murphy, broke his neck in a diving accident and has been a paraplegic ever since.

	Farrelly Brothers find Unbusted picture-perfect - The Boston Globe
		When you hear that the Farrelly Brothers have put three songs from an unknown Martha's Vineyard band called the Unbusted in one their movies, you wonder if one of the Farrellys, Peter or Bobby, lost a bet on the golf course and were obligated to put some local band on the soundtrack.
		But the Unbusted, Vineyard-born in 1997 but based in Boston since 2002, came to the Farrellys via Vineyard producer Danny Kortchmar, who made his name in the soft-rock realm.
		He had produced a bristling, five-song demo tape for the Unbusted, passed it to summer resident Peter Farrelly, and behold, "Seeds to Sew," "Another Wasted Weekend," and "I Don't Want to Grow Up" made the cut.

	24fps \| They're Not Hollywood, They're American: On the Farrelly Brothers and Stuck on You
		The Farrellys are crowd-pleasers in both senses: their stories deliver exactly where the audience expects (hence it’s not their forte – but who cares?), and their films are also sweet-natured and truthful about American (and Hollywood) attitudes towards beauty and social acceptance.
		The Farrellys are often criticized for their inarticulate framing and shoddy continuity, but here they find a solution by having to frame Bob and Walt in a single shot, relying on Damon and Kinnear to carry the weight of each scene rather than for the camera and editing to thrust the narrative along.
		He does not realize Bob is not over May, and a gradual zoom onto Walt’s face from a two-shot of the brothers lying in bed is the first symbol of their separation, accustoming the audience to the notion of individual space.

	Their latest hip comedy / Farrelly brothers' 'Stuck on You' has an insistently warm humor
		The Farrelly brothers' latest, "Stuck on You," is a comedy about a pair of conjoined ("Siamese") twins who go off to Hollywood when one of them decides he wants to make it as an actor.
		To appreciate why the Farrellys are the Farrellys, consider this: Any other comedy writers making a movie about conjoined twins would have tried to milk laughs out of the twins' exasperation and frustration with each other.
		The Farrellys may subject their characters to terrible agonies of embarrassment, but they never quite mock them.

		The Farrelly brothers continue their good-natured winning streak with Fever Pitch, a romantic comedy charmed by fate and last-minute improvisation.
		The Farrelly brothers' first two movies, Dumb and Dumber and Kingpin, had some moments of uproarious raunch, but were uneven.
		The codirecting Farrelly brothers haven't forsaken their lowbrow inclinations, but this clever romantic fantasy offers unexpected substance with the same comedic effrontery that made the Farrellys famous.

		Now there’s a major-studio Americanized version, directed by the Farrelly brothers, Bobby and Peter, who have turned it into their tamest, most conventional movie to date.
		The result is likely to disappoint Farrelly fans while leaving general audiences baffled and possibly bored.
		The Farrellys do try to keep the picture moving forward, throwing choice comic bits to KaDee Strickland (as Lindsey’s competitive pal) and JoBeth Williams (as Lindsey’s mother); they sometimes rescue it from its plodding moments.

	STUCK ON YOU - WIDESCREEN DVD
		It may not be funny in the slightest, but like Shallow Hal, the Farrelly Brothers' Stuck On You is often fascinating for the extent to which it seeks to dissect the exploitation of disability in film.
		The picture is surprisingly affecting when it's addressing the conjoined twins at its centre, pointing at once to where the Farrellys are headed with their art, and to the realization that where this picture really fails is in the fallacy that it needs to be a comedy at all.
		Even with its missteps, Stuck On You, taken with Shallow Hal and the Farrellys' best film, There's Something About Mary, provides a cogent argument that the brothers are on their way to fashioning a body of work that is enduring and valuable, and perhaps deserving of recognition as the work of genuine auteurs.

		Farrelly, who credits Mel Brooks' "Blazing Saddles" (1974), John Landis' "Animal House" (1978) and the breakthrough Abraham-Zucker brothers collaboration "Airplane!" (1980) as inspirations, had grown tired of smart aleck comic heroes who are wiser than everyone else.
		The brothers instead presented two doofus buddies and benefited from the hot streak of Jim Carrey, riding his coattails to improbable grosses, ultimately in excess of $300 million on an investment of $16 million.
		The Farrellys, who had geared their first two movies to sixteen-year-old males, had women splitting their sides with this questionable entry to the romantic comedy genre, proving that a picture can be far from perfect as long as it delivers in its big scenes.
