Horrid


I love the Three Stooges but this was undoubtedly the worst film they ever made. However I'd love to have a copy of it on tape or DVD just for kicks.

I agree. Saw it once and enough!

Now that I've watched on the DVD set it's not as bad as I remembered from seeing it as a kid on TV in the late 70s. I used to hate it. But now I think Moe is pretty good as the dad, he's funny. I would never hold it up as an example of the Three Stooges at their best though!

By the late 1950s these "Three Stooges" shorts were losing audience and money and the Columbia producers were probably looking new and different stories to make them "attractive". A few came out well [like one of the flying saucer or "UFO"], but most bad and repetitive. And this one stinks!

And many thought that Cuckoo on a Choo Choo was bad. Sheesh.

This short is Oscar-material compared to Cuckoo on a Choo Choo!!
