(Review originally written at 21 February 2006)
This silent Laurel & Hardy short is a very forgettable one. It has very little slapstick and comedy present in the movie, which doesn't make this movie a very entertaining one but rather a disappointing one.
It more gets a bit of an horror movie at times, rather than a comedy. But of course the presence of Mr. Laurel and Mr. Hardy is reason enough to find this movie still watchable. I don't think I'll be ever able to rate a Laurel & Hardy movie any lower than a 6 out of 10. The chemistry and timing of those two is absolutely phenomenal to watch, no matter how bad and forgettable the rest of the movie is.
Only recommendable to the true fans of Laurel & Hardy I guess.
6/10
