Critics Consensus

While nowhere near as painful as it could have been, The Three Stooges fails to add fresh laughs to the Stooges' inestimable cinematic legacy.

The Three Stooges | Rotten Tomatoes (1) J. Hoberman Tablet The brutish schtick got old a long time ago. Aug 16, 2017 Full Review The Three Stooges | Rotten Tomatoes (2) Tara Brady Irish Times The architects behind There's Something About Mary and Kingpin make merry with the poking and thumping, but are ultimately far too fond of their comic heroes to make them or us truly squirm. Rated: 3/5 Aug 24, 2012 Full Review The Three Stooges | Rotten Tomatoes (3) Derek Malcolm London Evening Standard This could have been a truly awful summation of the work of such minor legends but it works surprisingly well. Rated: 3/5 Aug 24, 2012 Full Review The Three Stooges | Rotten Tomatoes (4) Keith Garlington Keith & the Movies Even with their tremendous efforts, this still felt like a really good Elvis impersonator. They look like Elvis. They sound like Elvis. They shake like Elvis. But they aren’t Elvis.

Robert N Very funny, I had a great time. Rated 3.5/5 Stars • Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/21/24 Full Review Kamran B I always loved watching these three amazing actors. Now this movie has reminded all of them again. Wow. What a great movie. I along with my kids watch it pretty much everyday and enjoy and laugh every time as if it is the first time. Hats off to all the cast specially to Larry Curly and Moe for their outstanding performances. We all are anxiously waiting for the sequel. Hope it is going to be hit the market soon. Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 12/01/23 Full Review John J. C Funny, funny, funny Laugh out loud Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/05/23 Full Review sebastian v so that the previous fans of The Three Stooges criticize me And that, but this adaptation did honor to its previous series, I say that this film may be a bad adaptation But seriously, it does honor the previous series and it could also be like a way to honor the previous actors of The Three Stooges since they had died the day they made the production of the film Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/16/23 Full Review Gerardo A Es muy increíble, me sacó muchas risas, casi me ahogo XD, ¡¡¡RECONENDADÍSIMO!!! 😃😃😃 Rated 5/5 Stars • Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/11/23 Full Review Kazall R Admittedly this movie did started off well keeping everything true to The Three Stooges formula but the movie went off the rails by adding-in too many plots that are either rushed, forced or there for story effect. Rated 2/5 Stars • Rated 2 out of 5 stars 08/30/23 Full Review Read all reviews
