jlthornb51 Perhaps the Stooges' finest work, this is a superb example of the trio at their very best. They outdo all bast efforts and enhance their legend with this, their last released film With a bit more sophistication and in many ways much more cerebral in its concept, this is comedy that will simply delight everyone. Obviously, this Stooges film had a particular influence upon Mel Brooks when he produced his own classic Western comedy, Blazing Saddles. However, no one has nor will succeeded in bringing a funnier and entertaining Western spoof to the screen than the Stooges did with their 1965 effort, The Outlaws is Coming.

tforbes-2 I am not disappointed by this film. For a Stooge movie, it seems very much a product of its time, very modern in its tone. For one, you have Sixties icons Adam West and Henry Gibson, the latter playing a Native American educated at the University of Alabama, complete with Southern drawl! And Mr. Gibson is smarter than the dumb outlaws he is dealing with, to boot! Oh, and Curly Joe is funny in this scene, too! Watch also for at least two Beatles references, as well as references to the environment. Maybe the Stooges were slowing down by 1965, but they are still a joy to watch. And there are certainly many funny sequences as well. Definitely fun to watch!

maxcellus46 To paraphrase the previous reviewer's comments, if you're a Stooges fan, avoid this one at all costs! My basic question is, being the experienced troopers of comedy that Moe and Larry were, why did they insist on attempting to continue the act when it was so obvious that their home studio, Columbia, was so clearly not interested in giving them serious writers and veteran comedy directors? This movie plays like someone who's giving a pale imitation of the trio and you can see how very hard Moe and Larry are working to make every little bit of slapstick relevant. Joe De Rita, despite his background in vaudeville is just not up to the job as a replacement for Curly, Shemp, or even Joe Besser. If that's who Moe and Larry had left to pick from, they should have just closed up shop and enjoy their retirement years. Leaving us fans with better memories of far better films they had done earlier. Always leave them laughing is the motto for comedy and always quit while you're on top. Hence Seinfeld's leaving the sitcom while right up there, instead of sticking around for the inevitable decline.

courtad6 This is one of my favorite Three Stooges movies. Plus, Adam West is great in his non-Batman role.There really isn't much to analyze here. It's just meant to be a fun romp through the old west. And fun it is. Pretty much every gunslinger and bandit from historical westerns makes an appearance, and the climatic gun fight at the end is classic comedy. And of course, there's a great pie fight.
