Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I hate to say this about whoever reviewed this movie and said it was "great", but they were incredibly wrong. I wouldn't say this movie is bad, but I totally disagree with the opinions of that one reviewer. On this video there seems to be a great episode, an o.k episode, and a horrible episode. Here are my opinions on the 3 shorts.. "Half-Wits Holiday" is too hard for me to watch, and I don't know WHERE that guy got his opinions from, saying this is one of their best. I would safely say this is the worst Curly episode ever made. He is definetly suffering during the filming of this episode, and there is nothing funny at all about that. Then, he suffers the stroke after Moe's last line to him "Now go over there, and I don't want to hear a peep outta you." I guess Moe got his wish, because minutes later he had a huge stroke, leaving Curly speech-less. For me, this short is almost impossible to watch. Fans, stay away from this one, for your own good. "Horses Collars" is an o.k episode, which has it's parts which are very funny. Me, not being a big fan of the "western" shorts, thought many parts were boring. But otherwise, some famous lines such as "Moe, Larry, The Cheese, The Cheese." It's a alltogether good episode, just not as good as the last. "How High Is Up?" is truly a classic. That one guy said "the weakest of the three" (which he was wrong about also) as it is the funniest and has the most laugh-out-loud parts than both of the 2 before it COMBINED. I liked this short a lot, because the plot was funny, and interesting, and Curly did a great job in it...even thought it was filmed in his later days. Great episode!
Alltogether, I have mixed feelings about this video. It was worth the price for "Horses Collars" and "How High Is Up?" but I can't bring myself to allow how cruel it is to watch "Half-Wits-Holiday." Maybe people feel differently (Such as that 1 reviewer), but most Stooge fans would not enjoy that short at ALL. Anyway, it's your call on this one...I bought it, and I like it. My advice...buy it, rewind the first short, then watch the last two and laugh-out-loud for awhile.
