The biggest challenge is finding a way to work this comedy into modern times.
With that said, the story does take a back seat to the antics of the Stooges.The slapstick humor and sound effects stay true to how the Stooges should behave and it is all delivered at rapid fire pace for most of the film. The story is also told in episodes, which is broken up quite nicely and laced with the original theme song. Rating: PG (Slapstick Action Violence|Language|Some Rude/Suggestive Humor)īobby and Peter Farrelly bring old style slapstick comedy to modern days with The Three Stooges.The story is simple and requires less than 90 minutes to tell. Out in the world for the very first time, the three innocent bumblers become embroiled in a murder plot and find stardom on a TV reality show. When they learn that financial problems will soon force the only home they've ever known to close, the trio sets out to raise $830,000 in one month.
Left on the doorstep of an orphanage run by nuns, three newborn knuckleheads grow up to be finger-poking, nyuk-nyuking janitors named Larry (Sean Hayes), Curly (Will Sasso) and Moe (Chris Diamantopoulos).
