My Episode Review on Uncivil Warriors · 2:10pm Mar 27th, 2020
Greetings, Kemosabes.
This is your friendly film, TV show, and episode reporter here with another review.
Today, for my 27th episode analysis, I'm gonna give you guys my take of the Three Stooges's "Uncivil Warriors".
Here's the summary of it:
Taking place during the Civil War, the general of the Union Army decides to send the army's three best spies to infiltrate Confederate territory: The Three Stooges, also known as operators 12, 14, and 15.
Their mission is to go in disguise as Confederate soldiers and find out if the Union Army has a chance to beat the enemy.
Will the Stooges succeed? Or will this be one mission they'll unfortunately mess up?
Now if I'm gonna be honest, the only error that I can't help but note is that there was a slight hole in the plot.
The hole is this:
When the Stooges come across the first Confederate sentry shown in the picture, it was stated by both Larry and the guard that he wasn't the first one that they had to get past. I couldn't help but wonder why how the Stooges got past the unshown first sentry wasn't in the short, really.
Other than that, though, this short was another one of the most fun installments of the Three Stooges filmography I had ever watched.
The direction by Del Lord, and the story and screenplay by Felix Adler, were as entertaining as ever. The gigantic amount of humor and wit throughout the episode was so hilarious, with each gag landing with extreme fluency and timing. Along with that, the premise tied itself together perfectly.
The performances of the cast were fun as well, if I may add. The supporting characters throughout the short terrifically mixed with the presence and antics of the Stooges, and the trio themselves gave one of their most funny, witty, and energetic of performances I've noted so far.
In the end, despite having a small plot hole that I can't help but constantly question, "Uncivil Warriors" was another one of the Three Stooges's most entertaining installments, and I'm glad to finally get around to reviewing it.
So, I rate "Uncivil Warriors" 4½ out of 5 stars.
