Now Playing on the Big Screen in Barrow

Movie Review: 'Three Stooges' Is More of a Tribute to Larry, Moe and Curly

Brutal slapstick, silly jokes and a weak plot make “The Three Stooges” less fun than it could be.

"The Three Stooges" opened this weekend at Gateway Cinemas 12 in Bethlehem. Click here to view showtimes for Friday and click here for Saturday's schedule.  My husband says enjoyment of slapstick is a sign of early childhood head trauma. I don’t know where he got that, but that’s what he says every time I laugh at some Three Stooges-type scene. I guess I must’ve taken a pretty good whack to the head at some point because I got tickled watching the trailer for this movie. As a child, I saw a lot of “Three Stooges” reruns on television. Back in the olden days (for all you youngsters out there) cartoons were reserved for a couple of hours on Saturday mornings. During the week, afternoon programming consisted of reruns of old shows like “The …

I like that song! Lol. I saw a screening of the movie yesterday, and while there was no "American Woman", I thought Kravitz was really true to the character presented in the book. Perhaps "American Woman" could have been played through the closing credits. : )   more ›
