The Beginning of My Wife's Love Affair with the Stooges

Reviewed in the United States on April 7, 2019

Verified Purchase

Women are often portrayed as not "getting" the Three Stooges. What's to get? The gags are the same from reel to reel, but still, they are always funny. And this was the point at which they became my wife's favorite "comedians."

Absolutely hilarious.

Not the best work of The Three Stooges, but you'll like it!

Reviewed in the United States on August 8, 2012

This is my favorite Three Stooges' film. The story is pretty good. The casting is pretty good. The characters are pretty good, especially Hercules. However, Moe looks old, very old. Those are not bags under his eyes. It's luggage. Sadly, there is not enough of that famous Three Stooges violence. Yes, there is a pie throwing scene. And the sound effects are the same. But there is no eye poking and way too little face slapping and head hammering. Also missing are Curly's Curlyisms and there is not enough good material with Larry. This film could have been cast with Abbott and Costello without changing a thing. By the early sixties, it was too late to expect the Three Stooges to be fresh, original, and daring. They were a brand. And like any brand, they knew what you had a right to expect from them and what they had a right to expect from you. So there is just enough of them in this film to satisfy their audience, but not enough to please them. Still, I highly recommend it. You'll enjoy it.

Great for all ages

This film was made at the height of the Stooges popularity in the late 50s and early 60s. It grossed about two million dollars at the box office, exceeding expectations, and landed the Stooges a three-picture deal. Those three would turn out to be Three Stooges in Orbit, Three Stooges Go Around the World in a Daze, and Outlaws is Coming. Two million gross at the box office is pathetic these days, but it was substantial 43 years ago.

People already know the premise of this film. It's repeated several times on this page. But this is the type of film anyone with an appreciation of comedy would like. Be it a five year old or a 75 year old. It's just a fun, quick-paced, and clean film. I'm a Stooges fan, and this is one of my favorite things they ever did, including their short films.

This flick is the best place for anyone to start in the DeRita era, which tends to be frowned upon by many Stooge fans, but I liked DeRita. He was a good actor.

5 stars for the movie, but until proven otherwise, the actual DVD will get a 1 or a 2. These pictures were filmed in the 1:66 to 1 aspect ratio, but Columbia has typically released with in 1:85 to 1. This crops the picture somewhat, but the average fan won't notice. I don't even think it's all that noticible, you you wish they release it how it was filmed to be released.

Why

I love the Stooges, i've been a fan for over ten years now. I just cant understand how dvds are put together. This set could have included the classic Shivering Sherlocks and Hot Scots instead of Calling all Curs and Flat Foot Stooges. Its one mans opinion but I know the Stooges very well. I know the man who puts these dvds out isnt Stooge fan, maybe just a causal fan. I use to write the man who wrote an encloypedia on them. We had some great chats about Stooges. Its time for Columbia to wake up and release "ALL" Stooge shorts onto one massive set. I mean if we can get Newlyweds or Simple Life on dvd so fast, why not the Stooges? Granted Stooge shorts range from classic to forgetable. They could divide them into three parts-Curly, Shemp, and Joe. Six shorts on one dvd is bare minuim, they could easily put 10-15 on each disc. I would love some bonus material on them as well. I think its about time to give Stooges there due.

MY RATING MAY SEEM A LITTLE HIGH...

Reviewed in the United States on March 9, 2002

... but three seems to be the theme of this DVD. It's amazing how rare it is to find anyone aligned with a studio who actually knows their product like a fan would.
Obviously the only connection of this "theme" basesd DVD is that the word Three is in each title. I know that one Amazon fan especially was looking for Three Little Beers, so here's hoping he finds this to his liking. But of these particular shorts I think only Three Arabian Nuts and Three Little Beers are really worth your time. The others have their moments but are not in the same league. By the way - the cover photo is from Three Little Twirps - a short not listed among those included on this volume!
I am grateful though that the Stooges shorts continue to come out regularly. As time goes by there are more and more people who tend to forget or ignore older films. Of course one can't see everything and each generation has its own stars. Still it would be a shame if so much good work the Stooges did was lost.
Hey, Columbia - when are you going to dig out Time Out For Rhthym, which is pronanly the best of the Stooges feature length work?

More Shorts for Stooge Fans

Reviewed in the United States on September 4, 2002

Verified Purchase

Columbia has gotten a lot of flack about their Stooge disks regarding incomplete shorts, illogical grouping of episodes, lack of extras etc. I agree with these gripes, but I have two different concerns.
I sincerely hope that Columbia eventually puts all of the Stooge shorts on disk, but what will they do when they run out of "categories" to group them under? They obviously are already struggling with this, as the titles they assign the releases don't make much sense when compared to the shorts that are included. Also, and this may be blasphemy, I haven't seen any shorts with Joe Besser yet. I want a complete collection of the Columbia shorts, for better or worse.
And here's my biggest complaint. Why in the world can't they have a menu option that allows the viewer to see all the episodes on the disk uninterrupted? It's a pain to have to select each short individually.
The main thing is that they don't loose interest in this series. As long as they keep them coming I'll be happy.

I liked this movie for the simple comedy that it portrays I first saw this movie back in the 1960s. In fact I went to the
theatre to watch it with my older brother.Okay many young people today would not go for this kind of movie, however for me it brings back great memories of the 1960s,and the time travel story and the machine is not that bad.Although
in Greek myth I do not believe Hercules and Odyssey ever met-IF Your from that time era I recommend it-fun

Silly fun .....

The Three Stooges Meet Hercules is silly, fun. I saw the movie when I was a kid, then thought I would revisit it as an adult. Actually, it was funnier when I was a kid. Still, not a bad diversion if your in the mood for silly comedy.
