The Three Stooges

The hilarious comedy featuring the three stooges; Moe, Hurly and curly is an entertaining story of three unfortunate guys in a tight spot over the demise of their home. Besides growing up in the remote orphanage under strict guidance of catholic nuns, the three boys have it tough in life after it becomes apparent that their stay at the orphanage was to be permanent. Chances of getting adopted were pretty slim given their unique but odd nature, always having to take whatever life threw at them.

The movie begins with the boys’ arrival and early boyhood adventures at the orphanage, from where it becomes clear that Moe Curly and Hurly are not the average boys you would normally expect to find in an orphanage, than in a circus. Their behavior is quite playful and silly in conjunction with a funny dress code that keep the viewer cracking ribs to the stooges’ frolics. From boys to men, the orphanage remains their home until a crisis with insurance becomes a threat to closure of the home and unknown fate for its inhabitants.

Although the boys do not realize it, the entire crisis is their doing and no one is really bold enough to tell them so. Nevertheless, they take it upon themselves to try and save the orphanage and their friends by raising USD 830,000. There is no real strategy and eventually the quest for the money is no longer the most important thing as the three stooges find themselves at crossroads over leadership. Curly and Hurly blame Moe for putting his pride ahead of the kids, and the result is a split up with Moe accidentally landing a TV show Host Status and Curly and Hurly return back home unaware of the whereabouts of their beloved Moe.

When sister Ricarda tells the two boys about Moe’s fortune and fame, they decide to go and look for him back in the city, and find him they do. The reunion sparks ideas in Moe’s TV producer and the fate of the orphanage is no longer at stake, though the stooges don’t realize it they save their friends, their home and re-united with little teddy; who had shared a childhood with them. The laughter and tears of rib cracking jokes and fooling around is classic; the modern day jesters in the league of legendary Charley Chaplin.

This comedy is full of intrigue and betrayal of the highest order, and it is surprising to everybody that three idiots could accomplish what they did. The tricks, games and shenanigans suit every age bracket; the kids will love it and the not so young will have a rib injury before the third episode begins.
