IMDB

The Three Stooges (Moe, Larry and Curly-Joe) befriend a scientist who has developed a new way of making cartoons and can save their jobs of hosting their own cartoon. The scientist has also made a helicopter/submarine combo vehicle. Aliens somehow become aware of the invention and are chasing the Stooges, who get lost in the vehicle for about 20 minutes (if not longer) of this movie.
This movie is extremely bad. Joe DeRita is a poor substitution for Curly. Their trademark slapstick is almost non-existent. The aliens are horrible looking. Almost every joke falls flat. Not only do the Stooges do the twist, the aliens also do it. This movie should only be watched as your side (con) of a debate on whether the Three Stooges are funny.

4/10

Rating Scale Explanation

The rating scale is simple. 1 is the worst 10 is the best and 5 is mediocre. 5.5 or greater is a movie that I at least find enjoyable. You could also think of 5 as a zero and 1 as a negative 5. I feel like that sounds even more convoluted.
