Steve Martin, Chevy Chase and Martin Short team up for a screwball comedy but it's as though they think their presence alone will make the film funny. The Three Amigos is seriously lacking in jokes, and suffers from the clichéd curse of a comedy being more about action than humour. I kept hoping for the moment when one of the three would step up and steal the show but they're all equally bland.
The pieces were all there, it's a great idea for a comedy, but the three principles were wasted. Too much emphasis was placed on getting them together and not enough on the script. It needed another few drafts before it was ready to shoot.
5/10
