Just so...so bad

Good concept, poorly executed.

Mostly, the movie is committed to the value of a good time.

If you're interested in the topic at hand, you should just watch it and judge yourself because the reviews have gone very biased by people that didn't even watch it and just hate (or love) the creator. I liked it, it was well written, narrated, and directed and it was about a topic that interests me.

Camera tricks and quick edits are today's substitute for the great physical comedians of the past to whom you could just say, roll camera and they would do the rest. The pacing alone of this gem is aided by our knowledge of who these characters are and have been since the early thirties. When Shemp takes over the job, the loss of Curley as the third wheel doesn't feel so bad. All that bravado, mugging and dancing he does through this is priceless and original, only a Howard would know how to fit in. The sometimes hidden Larry shows off on piano and even without Moe, Shemp and Larry in a room are funny. Moe is always the funniest to me, getting tortured for his own hubris.

A variation of the story that became the Buster Keaton classic, "Seven Chances", this Three Stooges short is funnier from the view of the perspective brides than the usual violent schtick of the stooges. There's a funny rendition of a classic song sung by the massively untalented Dee Green whose voice would scare hogs away from their slop, as well as all sorts of aggressive, portly, man crazy, hideous looking bags that could be found among the Columbia bit players. Still, even with the legacy of the original premise, it's a poor substitution for the comedy that Keaton provided. I still don't get the humor of this comedy team, although I did like the joke, "Wait a minute. You wouldn't hit a lady with that. Use this. It's bigger."

Shemp's uncle dies leaving him a large amount of money...if he gets married in 48 hours. He tries to get married with predictable and unfunny results.I'm not a big fan of the Stooges. I don't find violent slapstick all that funny and this one is VERY violent. It's amusing at first and there is a fun bit with Christine McIntyre but at the end it turns really violent and the fun stops. Larry and Shemp both have pieces of hair torn out, Moe sits down on a bear trap and (worst of all) Shemp has a woman get his head in a press which she continuously turns with graphic crunching sounds. That's not funny at all...it's sick! Also the portrayal of women as doing anything for money is troubling. I originally saw this as a little kid on TV and had nightmares all night about it! Sick and unfunny.

Like two weeks ago I found and bought a DVD of The Three Stooges. "Dizzy Doctors" is the title of the DVD and it includes the following short films: Dizzy Doctors (1937), Termites of 1938 (1938), Brideless Groom (1947), Listen Judge (1952), Bubble Trouble (1953) and The Tooth Will Out (1951).Money but not a "normal" quantity of it, actually $500,000, that much money will change what some persons think, certainly those persons will do it just for the money, but what those persons will do? And who are those persons? Well in this the third short film of the Three Stooges from the DVD "Dizzy Doctors" we have that Shemp is a voice teacher and certainly one of those persons who will do it just for the money. Do what? He will try to get married since his uncle, who was for him nothing but a "louse and a weasel" but who now is nothing but a "swell guy", left him $500,000 but he can have the money only if he is married. So and with the help of Moe and Larry Shemp will try to receive a yes to the question "do you want to marry me?" from any of the women that he knows, he will not have any luck and actually this is a painful time for the Stooges. But those women who knew Shemp are also of those persons who will do something just for money and each one of them will be fighting to be the wife of Shemp certainly once they all know that Shemp will be a man with $500,000. As I said, this is a painful time for the Stooges especially while the women try to be Shemp's wife ("hold hands, you lovebirds") and in the end sort of mixed feelings for Shemp, sure he will receive the money but also is sure that he now has a wife! Brideless Groom is great stuff!
