Chirphymium It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional

Mandeep Tyson The acting in this movie is really good.

Curt Watching it is like watching the spectacle of a class clown at their best: you laugh at their jokes, instigate their defiance, and "ooooh" when they get in trouble.

Horst in Translation ([email protected]) "Hot Stuff" is an American black-and-white short film from 1956, so this one is already over 60 years old. The names of director White and writer Adler make obvious that here we have another Three Stooges short film. But is is really? Due to Shemp's tragically unexpected death at this point, it feels more like a Two Stooges short with Moe and Larry. Nice to see Larry get some more attention in here, but it's sure difficult to appreciate given the circumstances. Anyway, this one runs for 16 minutes approximately and it is another remake of an older Stooges work and this one has more politics references than you would expect I guess as most other Stooges films after the end of WWII are relatively unpolitical. As always, it is all about the comedy in here. But it is never as funny as you could hope for unfortunately and the beginning with the female bossd/instructor is just downright embarrassing at times with the kissing and jokes she is playing on Moe. Of course, they once again make up a bit thanks to their likable loser routine, but it simply isn't enough. It is probably not among the worst Stooges shorts I have seen, but then again I am not a great fan at all of the gang I guess, so maybe you'll like it if you love them in general. Even at this age of over 60 years old, it is far from their earliest works. All in all, I give this one a thumbs-down. It is not only mediocrity, but recycled mediocrity, which makes it even worse. Don't watch.

Movie Nuttball The Three Stooges has always been some of the many actors that I have loved. I love just about every one of the shorts that they have made. I love all six of the Stooges (Curly, Shemp, Moe, Larry, Joe, and Curly Joe)! All of the shorts are hilarious and also star many other great actors and actresses which a lot of them was in many of the shorts! In My opinion The Three Stooges is some of the greatest actors ever and is the all time funniest comedy team! This is one of My favorite Three Stooges shorts with Shemp! All Appearing in this short are Jock Mahoney, Emil Sitka, Vernon Dent, Christine McIntyre, Philip Van Zandt, Tiny Brauer, Andre Pola, Connie Cezan, Evelyn Lovequist, Joe Palma, and Gene Roth! This one is so hilarious! Shemp has a great performance here and in My opinion its one of his best. There is a similar one like this called Fuelin' Around and I strongly recommend both of these Three Stooges shorts!

yarborough This is another Stooge short in which some new footage with Moe and Larry (Shemp had died) was inserted into a previous Stooge short that featured Shemp. The man who doubles as Shemp is badly cast, and the shorts probably should have ended after Shemp's death. However, the new scene in which Moe and Larry try to romance two stunningly beautiful Uranian female officers is very funny, and worth the recycling. The original short kicks off with a lot of great laughs, but the laughs dwindle towards the end, though it is still fun.

crusefamily HOT STUFF is the second of four shorts shot after Shemp's death in 1955. Joe Palma, with his back to the camera, doubled for Shemp in a few scenes. HOT STUFF is a remake of FUELIN' AROUND, and nowhere near as good. Starting in 1953, director Jules White took footage from old shorts and added in new footage of the stooges, with a minor new story line. The doubles of Shemp are too obvious in this film. For one thing, Joe Palma turns around for a minute and you can see his face.The new scenes were shot in early 1956. I think the Three Stooges should have quit after Shemp died. None of the later Joe Besser shorts are very funny. They should have let FOR CRIMIN' OUT LOUD be their last film. It's the last one Shemp's alive in.If you really want to see anything funny from HOT STUFF, watch FUELIN' AROUND instead. The funniest part of the new footage is a woman in the office biting Larry on the nose.**1/2 out of 5 stars!
