VHS Movie Reviews of The Three Stooges: Shivering Sherlocks [VHS]

Movie Review: Three Stooges with Christine McIntyre & Kenneth McDonald
Summary: 3 Stars

Moe, Larry and Shemp in two from '48 and one from '50 with the usual strong troupe. All three are good efforts - there are many with Curly's replacement in this period which are better than some Curlies. "Studio Stoops" is one example. With some fun movie-making satirizing, the boys are off and stooging through a publicity-stunt kidnapping which becomes just a little too real (McIntyre's acting is excellent in the scenes when she's held captive). Shemp somehow winds up in the garment bag Christine was put in, and manages to settle on a ledge about 20 stories up. His life-line is a telephone which he uses to phone Moe and Larry for help. It's done in a much less frantic way than one might except, and though it is dragged out too long, it's a pretty good gag. The bad guys get caught and it's a nice wrap up.
"Crime On Their Hands" has alot of the atmosphere of the first one-reeler mentioned, though Christine is on the side of McDonald. (She delivers a classic triple-slap at one point, worthy of note. The only sexy slap in slapstick history!). They actually manage to solve the case of the missing diamond and prove that they can succeed as crime reporters. We get a Gorilla thrown in the mix who adds some real horror to the works - though at the end he's got a clever line of dialogue. Too bad that's about the only gag which registers.
"Shivering Sherlocks" another Stooge-noir if you will has a great early scene involving Vernon Dent and lie-detector. The versatile Christine McIntyre plays yet another character, a young lady trying to make a go of a restaurant. When the Stooges realize that they've been signing her checks as if they had credit, they insist that they work for her for free (Moe a bit more reluctantly). She discovers that she has money coming to her from some family property but to the boys something seems fishier than the clam chowder that Moe deals with (in a nice imitation of his retired Brother): the sale price is too low. The three travel to the place to discover hoods and a scary guy, who are foiled. Not much of an ending but overall it's satisfying. The (presumptive) ad-libbing on this one is a plus. Fans of Jackie Gleason might see an interesting parallel with Moe Howard's style, here and there.
