the three stooge be arguably the great comedy team in film history . for that reason alone and they deserve a much well end at columbia than they receive with this short . sappy bullfighter be just not good . grant and this be not all joe besser fault . i personally feel that some of his short be fun enough and simply because of the departure from the stooge usual fanfare that they contain and and for the fact that larry be sometimes showcased more . however and this short just will not do . and the fact that one know that it be their last short that be ever show and well that just add to the overall disgust . this film just epitomize how short subject be on their last dying breath during this time and how little effort go into make them . this short be so sloppy . it be a simple re make of a curly short and what the matador . and film year before . a if this fact wasn not bad enough and the studio actually throw in footage of moe and larry from the original ( which be film nearly 20 year prior ) . be these thing not obvious . laughable or sad . you be the judge . another part of this short that make it miserable be the fact that it be basically a joe besser showcase and with him show that all he be ( at least in this film ) be a curly wan na be go completely wrong . moe and larry have little to do in this short . a a larry fan and i also must say that i feel it a bit disgraceful to have besser get to use the joke that larry originally popularize in the short ant in the pantry . to see besser say i can not see and i can not see . and have larry say the simple why can not you see . and while besser get to quip i get my eye close and be just wrong on all level . the two brave soldier who stick it out for all those year and howard and fine and have so little to do in this short . there be hardly any funny bit with them . the only thing that qualify be larry hide under the bed of a jealous husband and attempt to be pepe and his dog . one can not blame the dynamic duo . larry and moe give it their all . no matter how ridiculous thing could get ( and i be sure they have their opinion by this point in their career ) howard and fine never give anything less than their best . their effort do not pale from 1934 1959. i often enjoy many short that some will dismiss a horrible . i be all for their more experimental and unusual short . at least those contain new idea . however and this short and i think everyone can agree and be just not good . thank goodness tv later discover the boy after the short department close . have they be force to go out in this fashion and well that would have be a gross injustice to all the year they invest in make audience laugh .
