The boys find out that they are heir to a fortune, but they need to produce a long-lost brother before Midnight so that all four will be given the inheritance at the same time. They produce a Fake Shemp, little realizing that the real Shemp has produced three imposters for them, and another party wants to make sure none of them appear by Midnight to collect the money.

(Although I doubt Stevens would be flattered to hear that he was hired because he looked like Shemp Howard.) Don't we all grow up wishing we could look like a guy whose hair looked like an old mop and whose skin resembled stale oatmeal? (asked with affection)

We all have our own opinions, but I can't understand how any Stooges fan would think this is anything less than a dedicated homage to the trio. One guy said he walked out, couldn't take it. I wonder what these fans expected? "Guy named Squeamy got thrown from the fifth floor. He's deader'n a mackerel."

Apr 30 12 8:45 PM Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	i am a huge 3 stooges fan and i just can`t bring myself to see it .it doesn`t matter how good the stars are at doing the stooges.i would rather see the original shorts on the screen .not the actors doing the stooges. the movie is just wrong in my opinion. people discussed shorts being shown in theaters earlier in the thread.i am 61 and while i don`t remember shorts shown in theaters ,i did occasionally see a stooges short but it was not the norm, i do remember the double feature and cartoon as the norm.sometimes just one film for my money makes me feel shortchanged to this day.thats one reason i enjoyed grindhouse so much.it was one film but seemed like 2.

May 1 12 4:36 PM Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	i am watching a tape of the real 3 stooges.i remember when the actors portraying the 3 stooges were on monday night raw in charactor.they were good but watching the original reinforces my opinion the new 3 stooges is wrong.

May 1 12 6:44 PM Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	I think the new Stooges were a good-spirited homage and only made the original shorts even stronger. And the new movie likely made some new kids Stooge fans if they weren't before. I do think the movie could have been wrong... very wrong. As it turned out I thought it was right. "Guy named Squeamy got thrown from the fifth floor. He's deader'n a mackerel."

I was hesitant about seeing it and wasn't sure about bringing them into this day and age, but it worked. It worked for me and my friend anyway. It's definitely worth checking out in the theater. Funniest movie we've seen in a long time.

May 5 12 8:22 PM Reply Quote More My Recent Posts	The reason to see it is because it's a funny movie. The real Stooges were terrific, but they didn't use up all the available funny.

There are countless Beatles Tribute bands. Most try to look and sound like The Beatles. They all fail miserably. Some play the songs faithfully but don't try to look or sound like The Beatles. Those are the bands I find entertaining. You can't recreate The Beatles any more than you can Elvis, the Marx Brothers, or the Three Stooges. I've yet to see anything in the trailers that looks even remotely funny, but I'll try to keep an open mind and probably give this a look on DVD or on cable later.
