The Ray Bradbury Theater: Mars Is Heaven (1990)
Impossible but it works
I did like this episode but it has issues. Like all of the episodes involving Mars the atmosphere and gravity just don't fit. You simply could not have an earth like town on Mars.
Second and most important - these are allegedly highly trained top of the ladder astronauts and they're completely taken in by what is obviously impossible.
In reality none of them would have bought the idea that this was home and these were their long lost relatives.
Sorry, but on those issues it misfires.
But all in all Bradbury made his entire series The Martian Chronicles and these spin-offs work. And the bottom line is that that is all that counts.
The Three Stooges (2000)
Spoiler Alert!!
Sorry, but I cannot follow along with the glowing reviews submitted by others. I found very little in the 190 Columbia short features of the Stooges that was actually that funny.
There is nothing humorous about being poked in the eyes. If it had ever been done to you, like it was to me way back in the 1950s, you'd know that. Similarly being slapped and punched is NOT funny.
Frankly, I've always thought that the Stooges might have been actually funny WITHOUT Moe.
Their little stories could be entertaining. Their boorish violence was NOT.
I was one of thousands of kids given the violent Stooges work over in the '50s. I haven't forgotten that!
