VHS Movie Reviews of 3 Stooges: In Orbit [VHS]
Movie Review: Funny and fantastic!
Summary: 5 Stars
THE THREE STOOGES (five stooges total) were 40 years into their historic comedy careers by the time the 1960s rolled around. That long already! (They started in vaudeville). Never ending the zaniness, they tirelessly kept working to entertain us for the rest of their lives. Moe's son-in-law was the producer of their 1950s/60s movies, and he came up with the idea for "Three Stooges In Orbit."
A wacky old scientist is suspicious that spies from outer space are hiding in his castle/laboratory where he makes a super new weapon-vehicle: a flying sub with wheels and a laser ray. He wants to sell it to the military - any branch - it can go anywhere. His lovely daughter has faith in her father's inventiveness.
The Stooges meet him, and come to stay (after getting kicked out of their own apartment) and yikes! they soon see spooks and monsters at the scientist's place.
Are there really alien monsters lurking who want to take over the Earth? Will the Stooges accidentally take off in the contraption and reek havoc? See for yourself, nitwit numbskull !
Summary of 3 Stooges: In Orbit [VHS]
The Three Stooges in Orbit has the team playing not only themselves but themselves trying to make it big on a television show. Since they keep breaking leases by cooking in their apartments, they rent a room in a spooky castle that houses not only a wacky professor (played by "the fourth Stooge," Emil Sitka, veteran of many a Stooge short) and his pretty daughter, but a pair of Martians who are waiting for him to perfect his latest invention and use it to conquer the Earth. After an old situation-device in which the craft is too large to leave the workroom, the Stooges make a trip into space that adds nothing to the plot, and finally defeat the invaders by hoisting them on their own petard. The usual chase routine is replaced here by a fairly well done sequence in which the team is outside the craft trying to thwart the two Martians locked inside the craft, while a death ray is wiping out most of California. (The use of stock footage from other monster-invasion films is unintentionally hilarious.)The love interest, deemed so necessary in films aimed at young audiences, is brief and tinged with mild comedy. The Martian make-up is obviously based on the original Frankenstein head shape, and it is a relief to hear them speak in some babble other than English as subtitles "translate" for us. In fact, the cleverest bit in this film is Moe's reading a subtitle to learn of the proposed destruction of this planet--a gag worthy of Mel Brooks. The film reveals its age when the chief Martian bangs his boot on the table in the manner of Khrushchev and his shoe at the United Nations. But the only real weaknesses are Curly Joe's fright reactions, so much funnier when done by Curly or Shemp in the past. --Frank Behrens
