While at first sight, one could think that this movie is a "faithful" modernized version of the "Three Stooges" classic shorts, the truth is that this movie is actually much less than meets the eye: All the similarities between this film and the original shorts are merely superficial. It completely lacks all the joy and the spontaneous fun of the original shorts, being just a mean-spirited mess that is corny and melodramatic when it is not painfully unfunny and dishonest.
Comparing the original Three Stooges shorts with this movie is like comparing actual orange juice with some Artificial Flavor Juice: No matter how much it tried, the Artificial Flavor Juice could never something like the real stuff. The same applies to this movie.
Of course, there are people who prefer Artificial Flavor Juices, and they are entitled to their own opinion. Personally, I couldn't stand this movie, and I found it to be everything what is wrong with modern cinema. Is a shame that the Farrelly brothers, who in the past made funny films like "Dumb and Dumber" or "There's Something about Mary" ended making a sub-par product like this. Their filmography have been going downhill in the recent years: After they tried to make more "tamed" comedies like "Shallow Hal" or "Stuck on You", and when they tried to make raunchy comedies once again with movies like "Hall Pass", the results weren't just as funny as their very first works. "The Three Stooges" is like a bad combination of their "raunchy" films with the corny and melodramatic elements that could be found in his more "tamed" movies. The result is simply awful beyond belief.
0/10 (And I would rate it with a negative score if I could)
