While no one will be able to wear these roles more appropriately than the original Stooges, the attempt made here is clearly one as calculated as it is inspired.
Capturing the mannerisms, vocal tone, speed and looks of the original trio extremely well, it's clear to see where the biggest strength of the movie lies, and thankfully it's exactly where it should. Whatever critiques may justifiably be lobbed at this film, it would be a hard sell to convince others that the actors did not do an excellent job portraying The Three Stooges.
