Movie Review: sort of good
Summary: 3 Stars

OUT WEST-This is the best three stooges western. the only problem is larry and shemp dont get an slap,eyepoke orhead bonk.shemp and moe trying to get larry out the cell is priceless Merriy Maverics-on the other hand is horrible. the only thing that saves this film is the chase at the end.the ending is the weakes ending i have seen.moe coyping curlys dance is weak. Punchey Cowpunchers- this is in a way like out west.shemp is barly punisted. he only gets a slap.this has a funny chase at the end. this has the same ending as out west.

Summary of 3 Stooges: Out West [VHS]

Among the many VHS collections issued by Columbia from its resource pool of 190 Three Stooges shorts, most of them are packaged three to a tape with no particular attention paid to chronology or any other kind of -ology. Now and then, however, the films are grouped by subject matter, such as False Alarms, in which all three films concern firefighting. Out West is another such collection and one that will give you a severe case of d?j? vu. Included on the tape are "Out West" (1947, short number 99), "Punchy Cowpunchers" (1950, number 120), and "Merry Mavericks" (1951, number 133). All three films have a bumbling hero (Jacques Mahoney in the first two and Paul Campbell in the third), a sexy and zaftig blonde (Christine McIntyre in the first two and Marion Martin in the third), and an evil boss. In the first two, we hear the gallop from the William Tell Overture as help is on the way--too late in both cases.

The sense of "I've seen this before" is compounded when "Merry Mavericks" turns out to be a remake of the Curly version of "Phony Express" (1943). And for the nth time, the gag of holding up a stick of dynamite that inadvertently gets lit is used to frighten off the baddies. There are two interesting moments. The cavalry officer comments in "Out West" that the cavalry has never been late "in the history of motion pictures"; and the "hero" who arrives too late faints at the sight of blood as the punch line to "Mavericks." This collection is a good study in how Columbia recycled the same material over and over to keep the popular moneymaking series alive for all those years. --Frank Behrens
