Listen up, knuckleheads… If you didn’t like this movie, you’re beyond help.
This movie just about perfectly succeeded in what it set out to do – bring Moe, Larry and Curly back to life just as we left them. It even comes with a completely inane plot. That was the entire point – of course it was stupid. That’s where the humor is, duh. It was just that kind of thing that made the original Stooges shorts so endearing; it was all so preposterous, one couldn’t help but laugh. Beyond that, I’ll just have to say that the physical humor of the Stooges – the pokes, the hits, the slips, etc. (both in the original and in this re-creation) was like dance or poetry… an art form completely unique to these three men. Sometimes, we just need to drop all our pompousness, and laugh at absurdity. And laugh I did!
