Waste of time

A different way of telling a story

Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.

The film may be flawed, but its message is not.

This is one of the funniest Stooge westerns ever. It is tightly paced, well directed, and features great characters. I'd almost say the Stooges were out staged by the fumbling Jock Mahoney and the great Christine McIntyre.Christine outdoes her punching Shemp out scene from 'Brideless Groom', by beating up the entire gang one by one. As she claims to be a 'weak defenseless woman', she decks them with one punch, then ladylike she faints on her bed. This was also one of the few Stooge shorts that featured a music soundtrack. I always thought the Stooge shorts would benefit greatly with a music score. Maybe Columbia was just to cheap, as I've seen other comedy shorts from the studio, and they were also wanting for music.

The Three Stooges has always been some of the many actors that I have loved. I love just about every one of the shorts that they have made. I love all six of the Stooges (Curly, Shemp, Moe, Larry, Joe, and Curly Joe)! All of the shorts are hilarious and also star many other great actors and actresses which a lot of them was in many of the shorts! In My opinion The Three Stooges is some of the greatest actors ever and is the all time funniest comedy team! I think Punchy Cowpunchers is one of the best Three Stooges westerns with Shemp. This one has an all-star cast which includes Jock Mahoney, Christine McIntyre, Kenneth MacDonald, Dick Wessel, Vernon Dent, Emil Sitka, Heinie Conklin, and Joe Palma! All of the actors perform well and each all has a bit of screen time. There some really funny things here and I love it when the Stooges bartenders. If you are a Three Stooges fan and western fan then I strongly recommend that you watch Punchy Cowpunchers today!

The stooges dealing with bad guys was the greatest theme in the Shemp era and it almost always worked out successfully. This is no exception. The stooges trying to act tough in front of three of the killer Dillons was hilarious!Grade: A

This is Christine McIntyre's best stooges appearance. "I'm just a poor helpless woman!" POW! And knocks her attacker out the window. This short is also good because the bad guys are real badguys. They have brains unlike some of the other bad guys that the boys went up against in the past. You actually start worrying about the stooges and wondering if they'll get out of this one alive. Elmer's pratfalls and his "Forgot my geetar." and "I fell off my horse" lines are priceless. Oh yeah and the stooges are good too. Especially Shemp's "Your gun is empty." SMASH This one never fails to make me laugh. Definitely my favorite short.
