Critic Reviews
-
Tom Huddleston, Time Out
'The Three Stooges' is exactly the film it wants to be. Was it worth ten years of anyone's life? Probably not. Is it worth 88 minutes of yours? Absolutely.
-
David Denby, New Yorker
The movie is so infantile that it achieves a special kind of purity and gentleness.
-
Joshua Rothkopf, Time Out New York
As with the shorts, our enjoyment was never about the scenarios, just the weird Zen of furious hand-to-Stooge combat.
-
Nick Pinkerton, Village Voice
The leads acquit themselves in the physical comedy, resurrecting shtick honed on a thousand-and-one vaudeville stages, and recreated in as many playgrounds.
-
Eric D. Snider, Film.com
Any reasonable objections to the Farrellys' Three Stooges will not be on the grounds that it desecrates a revered comedy franchise, but on the grounds that it's not very funny.
