5.0 out of 5 stars Outstanding Stooges at their very best., May 21, 1999
By A Customer
STUDIO STOOPS; CRIME ON THEIR HANDS; and SHIVERING SHERLOCKS. Three classics that showcase their comic inventiveness; a must for fans.

3.0 out of 5 stars Three Stooges with Christine McIntyre & Kenneth McDonald , November 5, 2006
Moe, Larry and Shemp in two from '48 and one from '50 with the usual strong troupe. All three are good efforts - there are many with Curly's replacement in this period which are better than some Curlies. "Studio Stoops" is one example. With some fun movie-making satirizing, the boys are off and stooging through a publicity-stunt kidnapping which becomes just a little too real (McIntyre's acting is excellent in the scenes when she's held captive). Shemp somehow winds up in the garment bag Christine was put in, and manages to settle on a ledge about 20 stories up. His life-line is a telephone which he uses to phone Moe and Larry for help. It's done in a much less frantic way than one might except, and though it is dragged out too long, it's a pretty good gag. The bad guys get caught and it's a nice wrap up.
"Crime On Their Hands" has alot of the atmosphere of the first one-reeler mentioned, though Christine is on the side of McDonald. (She delivers a classic triple-slap at one point, worthy of note. The only sexy slap in slapstick history!). They actually manage to solve the case of the missing diamond and prove that they can succeed as crime reporters. We get a Gorilla thrown in the mix who adds some real horror to the works - though at the end he's got a clever line of dialogue. Too bad that's about the only gag which registers.
"Shivering Sherlocks" another Stooge-noir if you will has a great early scene involving Vernon Dent and lie-detector. The versatile Christine McIntyre plays yet another character, a young lady trying to make a go of a restaurant. When the Stooges realize that they've been signing her checks as if they had credit, they insist that they work for her for free (Moe a bit more reluctantly). She discovers that she has money coming to her from some family property but to the boys something seems fishier than the clam chowder that Moe deals with (in a nice imitation of his retired Brother): the sale price is too low. The three travel to the place to discover hoods and a scary guy, who are foiled. Not much of an ending but overall it's satisfying. The (presumptive) ad-libbing on this one is a plus. Fans of Jackie Gleason might see an interesting parallel with Moe Howard's style, here and there.

4.0 out of 5 stars An all Stooge/detective/Kenneth MacDonald tape., January 15, 2002
By Kyle Cruse (Escondido, CA USA) - See all my reviews
STUDIO STOOPS, CRIME ON THEIR HANDS, and SHIVERING SHERLOCKS. This tape would be a LOT better without CRIME ON THEIR HANDS.

STUDIO STOOPS is an excellent Three Stooges short. The scenes where Shemp is hanging out the window are great. Vernon Dent is very funny as a detective. A very funny short.

CRIME ON THEIR HANDS is a pretty bad short. I don't like the scenes where Kenneth MacDonald is trying to cut Shemp open with a knife. If this short was replaced with DOPEY DICKS, SPOOKS, or WHO DONE IT?, this tape would be five stars.

SHIVERING SHERLOCKS is a very funny short, although little is new here. After the lie detector scene, the short goes into plot which basically combines BUSY BUDDIES, DUTIFUL BUT DUMB, and IDLE ROOMERS. Those are all great shorts, but I prefer those instead. This is still a pretty good short, though.

The first and last short were great, but I do not like CRIME ON THEIR HANDS.
