VHS Movie Reviews of 3 Stooges: Meet Hercules [VHS]

Movie Review: The Best of the Stooges features
Summary: 5 Stars

This movie is the best of all of the stooges movies made in the late 50's and early 60's. Of all of them it captures the spirit of the classic shorts which made them them one of the longest lasting and most consistant moneymakers (at least for their studios) in the comedy business.

The plot is simple the boys aid a geek trying to build a time machine while keeping the villian away from his girl. The result is a trip to ancient Greece, a meeting with the legendary Hercules and the changing of the Geek to a man.

Pure unadultruated fun. a real winner.


Movie Review: The Stooges battle Hercules and Win out with Top Colors!
Summary: 5 Stars

In their first film comedy for their own studio:Normandy Productions."The Three Stooges"create their first really funny family film.Here the boys played three bumbling drug store employees in 1962 Ithica,New York.Who try to help their next door neghibor:"Scuyler Davis"(Quinn Reddecker)develop his time machine.So that he can become a success ,pay his bills and win the fair "Diana's"(Vicki Tricket's)hand.But the boys perverse and crooked boss"Mr.Dimsel"(George Neise)tampers with "Mr.Davis'"blueprints and the boys refashion the device in such a way that it malfunctions.Until "Curly Joe"De Rita uses some tranquilizers to help send the time machine,Mr.Reddecker,Ms.Tricket and "The Stooges"back in time to Ithica Greece.Where they inadvertedly help the Evil ancesstor of "Mr.Dimsel"/"King Odius"(also played by Mr.Neise)to upsur "King Ulliuys"From his throne and make him a prisoner of ""King Odius"and "Hercules"(Samson Burke).The boys and Reddecker help The rightful ruler of Ithica escape.But "Hercules"captures our Heroes.And soon they have to try to escape a Greeican Slave Galley Ship,A Two headded Giant,A man eating Bull ,The Greeican Mafia and "Hercules"and "King Odius.Before our heroes and "Dianna"can return to 1960's Upstate New York.The film is full of laughs,thrills and a combination pie fight and charriot chase that is remincesent of Mack Sennett.The only damper are the relationship between Ms.Trickett And Mr.Reddecker.The Two romantic leads.Whose unreal trystings and interferrence with the boys slapstick makes it hard at times to concentrate on The Stooges comedy.Despite this one flaw."The Three Stooges Meet Hercules!"is the team's first forray into family films and it's their best!

Movie Review: Two Big "Nyuk Nyuks" for Stooge Feature
Summary: 4 Stars

Those who dismiss this great later Stooge film as silly just aren't getting the point. Besides, in 1962 their films were being written to cater to a new and younger generation of fans-mine. Their energy and enthusiasm is evident, and it works both as a kids movie and as a spoof on a film genre that was popular at the time. If you appreciate the Stooges, you'll like this family film.

Movie Review: A Full-Lenght, Muscle-Headed Feature Film!
Summary: 5 Stars

Before I saw THE THREE STOOGES MEET HERCULES, I was worried it would be dry and dull. But this actually turned out to be an excellent Stooge movie. When I watched this, I was enjoying the whole 90 minutes. The best part is when Skyler turns out to be Hercules and swings around a lion by it's tail. This is the first Stooge feature I've seen. I hope the others are just as good.

Movie Review: Great tape, my favorite stooge feature
Summary: 4 Stars

This is a great tape, and the movie's quality is pretty good. There are many funny gags in this one and some reused, but they're still good here. My only beef about this short is that the slapping that goes on between the stooges dies down after the galley ship scenes. But this one is still quite funny. If you're a stooge fan, this tape's for you!
