Left on the doorstep of an orphanage run by nuns, newborns Moe, Larry and Curly grow up finger-poking, nyuk-nyuk-nyuking and woo-woo-wooing their way to uncharted levels of knuckleheaded misadventure. Now their childhood home may have to close due to financial difficulties. But Larry, Curly and Moe, employed as the foster home's inept maintenance men, are determined to come to the rescue. Only The Three Stooges could become embroiled in an oddball murder plot - while stumbling into starring roles in a phenomenally successful TV reality show. Written by
Press kit
The directors--or, rather, two actors playing the directors--reveal at the end of the film how the physical comedy was done. Similarly, in real life The Three Stooges went on television several times, after incidents of children hurting each other while imitating the Stooges' eye-poke, head slaps, etc., to reveal how to eye-poke without hurting anyone.

I was so mad when I heard they were making this movie. I really thought the real Stooges would be rolling over in their graves, but I was pleasantly surprised how good this was.It really does a great job getting the look and feel of the originals without being a caricature of the Stooges. Really impressed with the actors.They all did a wonderful job of paying homage to the originals and giving the movie surprising heart. Larry David always cracks me up. Some of the gags made me laugh so hard my stomach hurt. As usual I have to mention my husband really likes this, too.Highly recommend for any Stooges fan and great for the kiddies.
