that the sound of stan and ollie spinning in their graf . i would not bother list the fundamental flaw of this movie a theyre so obvious they go without say . small thing and like this be the all new adventure of laurel and hardy despite the star be dead for over thirty year when it be make . little thing like that . a bad idea would be to have actor play buffoon whom just happen to be call laurel and hardy . as bad a that be and it might have work . for a really bad idea and try cast two actor to impersonate the duo . okay and they might claim to be nephews and but the end result be the same . bronson pinchot can be funny . okay and forget his wacky foreigner cousin larry schtick in perfect stranger and and look at him in true romance . here though and he stink . it probably not all his fault and and and like the director and the support cast all of who be good than the material he be probably just desperate for money . there be those who claim american find it difficult to master an effective english accent . this cause be not help here by pinchot . what be stan . welsh . iranian . pakistani . only in stan trademark yelp do he come close and though a the yelp be overdone to the point of tedium that nothing to write home about . gailard sartain do slightly well a ollie and though it like say what bad step in dog dirt or a kick in the knacker . remember the original with their split second timing and intuitive teamwork and innate loveability . well that absent altogether and replace with two stupid old men and joke so mistime you could park a bus through the gap . whereas the original have plot that could be sum up in a couple of panel and this one have some long winded mummy hokum ( and what a lousy title . ) that mixed in with the boy fraternity scenario . i can not claim to have see every single one of laurel and hardy 108 movie and but i think it a safe bet that even their nadir be leagues ahead of this . maybe the major problem be that the original be sort of play themselves and or at least use their own accent . it at least felt natural and unforced and a oppose to the contrived caricature pinchot and sartain be give . and since when do stan do malapropism and and so many at that . i be gon na give you a stand cremation while i would like to marinate my friend . stop it . only notable moment be a reference to bozo the clown and the cartoon character who share larry harmon l and h comic . harmon of course buy the name copyright ( how disconcerting to see a ® after laurel and hardy ) and be co director and producer of this travesty . question abound . would stan and ollie do fart gag if they be alive today . would they glass mummy with broken bottle . have stan be smack in the genitals with a spear and end on a big cgi finale . let hope not . i do laugh once and but i think that be just in disbelief at how terrible it all be . why be this film make in the first place . who do the maker think would like it . possibly the bad movie i have ever see and an absolute abhorrence i grow sick of watch after just the first five minute . about as much fun a have your head trap in a vice while a red hot poker and stinging nettle be forcibly insert up your back passage .
