Editorial Review:
Amazon.com:
A quartet of Three Stooges shorts, with a 3-to-1 balance tilting toward Shemp over Curly. The 1936 "Disorder in the Court" is definitely an honor-roll Stooges entry, with Curly providing testimony in a murder case. Note to prosecutors: Do not bring a vise into the same courtroom as Curly Howard. The other shorts shift to the late 1940s, adding (and highlighting) returning Howard brother Shemp in place of Curly. "Brideless Groom" has Shemp inheriting a half million dollars if he can get married in a few hours. As Moe observes, this should be a snap: "When Shemp pours on the charm, no dame can resist." Ooof.
"Sing a Song of Six Pants" is a lesser outing, with the boys running a tailor shop and getting mixed up with gangsters. It does provide an illustration of that Stooges truism: when a beartrap is located anywhere nearby, the law of probabilities favors an eventual convergence with Moe's backside. "Malice in the Palace" takes place in an Arabian café, where Moe, Larry, and Shemp are waiters. The best sequence has the boys and their diners convinced that Larry has sacrificed a dog and cat for the evening's entree.
This Fox DVD offers colorized versions of the shorts, but like the 2004 Columbia colorized discs, it also features the original black-and-white versions. The fake color looks pretty bad, with the lurid shades of the Arabian nights episode especially glaring. Stick with the improved black-and-white versions of these familiar shorts. Wraparound introductions are provided by Mike Nelson and a couple of the Mystery Science Theater 3000 crew--they're hit and miss, but their mockery of poor, sputtering Shemp Howard is just a bit cruel. --Robert Horton

It seems pointless for there to be yet another release of the four public domain shorts, and with colorised versions no less, but this time the issuing company actually got it right. While the print quality on the numerous other releases varies from bearable to downright horrible, here they're the most stunning restored versions I've yet seen. Apart from a handful of lower-quality frames, they're absolutely pristine, making the umpteenth reissue of these shorts everyone has seen hundreds of times ... Read More

This movie arrived in a timely manner-actually a little earlier than I had expected. Of course it arrived in perfect condition too!

The Disorder In The Court woman dancing never looked so good!, as if it was filmed yesterday. The color and cleaning up brings the performance to life like you've never seen it. (I barely noticed her before, or at most she was annoying) Beyond that, the rest was like seeing color TV for the first time. The stooges oddly, seemed "less funny" in color. Anyone else get that? I found that interesting. But here's the thing... the evaluation of the original stays unchanged in my mind, even after knowing about ... Read More

The "Three Stooges" purist in me say's absolutely no way to the colorized shorts. I'll admit that after watching this DVD I have warmed up to the Three Stooges in color. 20th Century Fox Studio did a great job with this one and the price is very reasonable for what you get. Fans will enjoy four classic Three Stooges shorts in all new color versions plus the same four shorts restored and remastered in glorious Black & White.
Included on the DVD are Trailers, Wraparounds by the mystery science ... Read More

While colorization opponents may find this a sacrilegious venture, THE THREE STOOGES IN COLOR is still highly entertaining. The colorization is quite good, achieving a sometimes comic book flavor. As for the stooges, they continue to reign as the crown princes of unabashed silly slapstick. With four classic shorts and some ridiculous introductions by members of Mystery Science Theatre 3000, viewers are treated to "Brideless Groom," "Disorder in the Court," "Malace at the Palace" and "Sing a Song of Six ...
