Ausgewählte Rezension

2/10

Lazy, lazy, lazy.

Joe Besser had a solo career before becoming the guy who took Shemp's place with The Three Stooges. It's interesting that his solo comedy shorts were made for Columbia and I'm sure this had something to do with his being cast as a Stooge since the Stooges made their shorts for the same studio.

Many of the Stooges films with Besser are cheap remakes of previous Stooges movies. In the case of "Hook a Crook", it's a remake of a Three Stooges film ("Dizzy Detectives") AND one of Besser's shorts, "'Fraidy Cat"...talk about lazy film making!! Additionally, to save time and money, most of the footage in "Hook a Crook" is actually from "'Fraidy Cat"!

I hated "Dizzy Yardbird" because it lacked originality. I REALLY hated this one because it was even lazier and is essentially an earlier film chopped to pieces and released as a new one! Unfunny and annoying to fans of the Stooges (I didn't say fans of Besser because I honestly don't think there are any!).
