Customer Reviews
Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Costume comedy
Costume comedy isn't for everyone, though it's pretty well-done in these 5 shorts. As they've already been outlined, I won't provide another review with plot synopses, just give my views on each short.

'I'm a Monkey's Uncle' (1948)--Very charming and entertaining, not to mention I've always loved prehistory. There are a lot of good inventive gags and scenarios playing upon this era, such as how the boys have to catch their own food, use butter for hair grease, and the weapons they ... Read More



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Way Too Much Shemp
Shemp had been called a much more talented comedian than Curly.

That shows you what reviewers know...Shemp is always going to stand in Curly's long, wide shadow. To Stooge fans, it's either watching Curly or waiting to watch Curly.

In this [really short] DVD you get more Shemp than Curly...I'd pass.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - The Three Stooges in hysterical, er, historical comedies
Yes, it is hard to understand why you get three two-reelers on each Three Stooges videotape but a DVD only gets you up to five. However, there is certainly a thematic approach to this DVD that you rarely find with the videos as all of these shorts are set back in time, when the days of olde when knights were bold being the chief attraction, and you do get shorts with both Curly and Shemp in the mix:

"Squareheads of the Round Table" (1948) is set in the Middle Ages where the Stooges are ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Restless Knights
If you are a Stooges collector this is for you. If you are a fan of just Curly, you may want to pass on this one. Try "Curly Classics, Cops And Robbers or All The World's A Stooge". This DVD has 3 Shemp episodes and 2 Curly. The 2 Curly episodes are obviously the highlight of this set. "Restless Knights" from 1935 is one of the funnier Stooge shorts and has a riotous wrestling scene. "Matri-Phony" is another classic as the Stooges try to save a red headed beauty from being forced to marry the ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - I love the Stooges - I hate Columbia Studios
Only 5 two reelers on this DVD, several of which I have always considered to be Shemp's best. But only 5? Columbia knows a Stooge lover such as myself will always purchase even though it is obvious that the technology allows for much more data to be put on to a disk. When the Stooges signed that contact that gave away all future compensation rights from any possible new medias, Columbia hosed them and the tradition of hosing all their descendants and loyal fans continues.
