3.0 out of 5 stars Not THAT bad! Relatives, not Imitators!, August 8, 2005

By	Daniel (Virginia) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The All New Adventures of Laurel and Hardy: For Love or Mummy (DVD)

I love Laurel & Hardy- they were the greatest comedy team in history. One reason for their greatness(and Oliver Hardy said it best)is that "comedy is hard to do". I disagree with the other reviews that this is a bad film- definatly not "5 stars", but not "rock bottom" either. ALSO, it is NOT a "remake" as other reviews have stated. Bronson Pinchot and Gailard Sartain portray the nephew's of the elder Laurel & Hardy(you hear them mention their uncle's, "Stan & Olie", if you listen carefully. They are just "chips off the old block". I think it's worth at least one viewing for any Laurel&Hardy fan. Not that bad!

1.0 out of 5 stars Disgraceful to the name of the World's Greatest Comedy Team, February 20, 2000

By	The Bobster (Maryland) - See all my reviews

Forget this terrible movie and go buy some "real" Laurel and Hardy videos instead.

Bronson Pinchot plays Stan Laurel as a helpless rambling idiot (in the actual L&H films- Stan was dumb, but not nearly as totally brainless as Pinchot plays him). Gailard Sartain does a better impersonation of Jackie Gleason as Sheriff Buford T. Justice (from the SMOKEY AND THE BANDIT movies) than he does Oliver Hardy.

None of the timing, chemistry, milking of a gag, or comic genius that made Laurel and Hardy so great are to be found here. It's just another fast-paced slapstick farce that's designed for kids.

And the mummy running rampant reminded me of the 1953 film ROBOT MONSTER with the diving helmet on the head of someone in a gorilla suit.

And what's a respectable actor like F. Murray Abraham doing in this fiasco?

Again- if you have any respect or admiration at all for Laurel and Hardy, I recommend forgetting this abomination of a movie and buying some videos of the real thing instead.

5.0 out of 5 stars fun for the kids, October 31, 2005

By	Son of the Desert - See all my reviews

It's too bad that so many Laurel and Hardy fans can't take this for what it is: harmless fun for kids to watch at Halloween time. I went into this knowing it was aimed at little kids and involved the "nephews" of Laurel and Hardy, a rampaging mummy, the director of Ernest, Bozo the clown, and "cousin Balkie". I found it to be cute and kids love it. That makes it OK in my book.
