Amazon.com:
Very much in the tradition of such Columbia Three Stooges period shorts as "Back to the Woods," the 1962 costume epic The Three Stooges Meet Hercules is 100% pure Moe-Larry-Curly Joe comedy, with the barest of a ho- hum love interest to detract from the nonsense at hand. Working at the pharmacy of an ill-tempered boss (George N. Neise) and friends of a budding time-machine inventor named Schuyler (Quinn Redeker), the Stooges and Schuyler, along with the obligatory attractive female, Diana (Vicki Trickett), are transported back to the time of Hercules. Here the legendary hero (Samson Burke) is the enforcer for King Odius (Neise in a double role), and anachronisms are rampant in an English-speaking ancient Greece.
Twice condemned as galley slaves, the Stooges see that Schuyler now has the muscles but not the self-confidence to rescue Diana and the rest of Greece from the odious Odius. Schuyler is tricked into thinking himself all-powerful and performs many Herculean labors (with many a stuffed animal and some decent backscreen projection).
Although Curly Joe seems a few notches above his namesake in the brains department (which is not saying all that much), his reactions at times of real and supposed danger are quite ordinary compared with the old Curly. In fact, it is Moe who takes on the Curly bark at a recalcitrant prop. But the old sound effects are there to punctuate blows to belly and head, although eye pokes are out, due to parental objections to the influence of the trio, newly popular on television. --Frank Behrens

Sadly, by the time this film was made (1961, according to the copyright date on the film itself, not 1962), the Three Stooges shtick was a little beyond its prime. Partly that was because of the age of the Stooges (Moe was 64, and Larry and Curly-Joe weren't far behind), but partly it was because of the age itself -- their trademark physical comedy had to be heavily toned down because it was no longer acceptable to over-protective children's advocates. And partly, of course, it was because the act ... Read More

This was sooo good! It was really funny, clean, well priced, and had great quality. I highly recommend this movie.

This is quite possibly the single greatest work of that great comedy troupe known as "The Three Stooges".
Laughs and more laughs from start to finish. If you are a fan this is the one title you cannot do without in your dvd collection. In fact, the price is so reasonable you should buy extra copies for your friends and family.

I like this film but please these are not the spry young Stooges of the Curly era. And as such should not be compared as. So what do we have but a comedy,science fiction, and adventure film that was aimed at those Saturday morning audience. So enjoy it as it is, beside it is alot better for my 3 and 4 year old to watch at this stage and they enjoy it especially the 2 headed cyclops.

This is arguably the best Three Stooges feature of the bunch. It was fun to watch, and kept me engaged all the way through it. Even Moe Howard himself said that in 1962, this was a box-office smash upon its release, with lines often stretching all the way around the theatre block!
The secret behind TSMH and the other Stooge films is clever scripting and direction. We're never painfully reminded we're watching comedians well into their sixties; Moe, Larry and Curly Joe (the final member to join ... Read More
