I'm still surprised about the IMDb users rating or this movie. While writing this review, the current rating it's a 5,3..........amazing, and i will tell you why:
This movie recaptures the spirit, feeling and comedy heart the stooges had. I have rarely seen a movie with the level of respect and detail about performers of the past, without falling in a blatant copy or a tragic failure. This movie is not a perfect one, but a truly and carefully crafted homage.
OK, the Jersey Shore section of the movie really bothered me, but even that part of the script was used in a good way.
Don't expect new things, expect to feel like you're 6 years old again, and a smile will be almost all the movie with you.
PD: this is a recreation of the shorts, for a really good movie about the life and suffering of the real stooges, watch the film made for TV, you won be disappointed.
- If you are a person who has never seen the classic short films or anything related to the stooges, it's simple: whether you like this type of humor (physical, simple, direct and at the same time naive) or you're gonna hate it. But everyone who enters a theater this days, knows exactly what to expect thanks to trailers, viral ads, reviews, etc. So nobody can claim (therefore my surprise about the ratings) to be disappointed about this movie.
