The Ending
I've always been a fan of Laurel & Hardy but there are a small number of movies that end in some form of physical distortion or other calamity. I've always found these endings disturbing and this movie is an example. I enjoy this movie up to the point where Ollie falls into the vat with the formula and comes out as a chimp. Forgive me but this ending always disturbs me. I know some will defend it as slapstick or physical comedy but its hard to watch the ending to this movie.
