It's a mild crowd pleaser for people who are exhausted by blockbusters.

I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.

It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.

It's a good bad... and worth a popcorn matinée. While it's easy to lament what could have been...

I get the title. There were three stooges and three criminals. Funny. Anyways, this was a very funny stooges episode. It was actually the first one I saw. I never thought 40s comedy can actually be funny.I love how the three stooges hurt the criminals, ended up without the reward. But then the guy they captured had money in his pocket and they took it and actually got the money they were looking for. Funny. "Ooh, a fifty. How'd that get there?" Hilarious!I recommend this Stooges ep for everyone. Although, there is one scene when one of the stooges was drinking an alcoholic beverage. That's what you get from classic movies and shows.

While this short features Shemp and not Curly, it's still a lot of fun--though I always prefer Stooges shorts with Curly--he was THE third Stooge. However, Shemp does a pretty good job and the team was forced to either disband or keep going without Curly due to his ill health.This short features the threesome as tailors. They owe money on their rent and unless they pay up ASAP, their business will be closed. But employing some comedy timing, just after getting this letter they overhear an announcement on the radio concerned a wanted safe cracker--and the reward will take care of all their expenses. So naturally the boys ultimately have a showdown with the tough guys and in the end, everything is exactly as you would predict....well, not quite, as the ending provides a cute little twist. While this is NOT a great short, it's agreeable enough and something non-Stooge fans can still enjoy.

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! One of My favorite Stooges shorts with Shemp is none other than Sing a Song of Six Pants! All appearing in this short are the great Vernon Dent, the excellent Tiny Brauer, the beautiful Virginia Hunter, Phil Arnold, the hilarious Cy Schindell, Jules White, Bing Connolly, Dee Green, and Johnny Kascier. Dent, Brauer, Hunter, and Schindell are great here! There are so many funny parts here. This is a very hilarious short. There is another similar Three Stooges short like this one called Rip, Sew, and Stitch and I recommend both!

If a you are stooges purist and only watch the films featuring Curly, make an exception in this case. ranks with "a plumbing we will go' as quintessential stooges. Larry, Moe and Shemp are the wonderful pip boys, tailors. Includes classic scenes where breakfast (pancakes) is cooked on an ironing press and a crooks head is pressed in the same device.
