Summary: A Full-Length Gun-Slinging, Rip-Roaring Feature Film.
Comment: THE OUTLAWS IS COMING (1965) is yet another great Three Stooges feature film. It's also their last feature. This one has some great comedy in it. I noticed some similarity for THE THREE STOOGES MEET HERCULES (1962), such as the wagon chase at the end. I didn't know they had pies in the old west. Great movie. Grade: Between A+ and A.

Summary: Last Stooge Film A Huge Success
Comment: I really enjoyed this final movie from the three stooges. It had an excellent plot, and your usual funny stooge action. People must realize this isnt like a stooge short, but the stooges were really good movie actors. This was the first time I saw Joe Derita and I thought he did a very good job. It could not have been easy replacing curley and shemp, but Joe Derita had a certain quality that fit well with the other stooges. From slaps to pie throwing this movie is 100% stooge. I have ordered the three stooges in orbit, and look forward to posting a review. Bottom line "the outlaws is coming" is a must for any serious stooge fan!!

Summary: The Three Stooges last Stand against The American Western!
Comment: In Their last feature length film comedy."The Three Stooges"once again spoof:"The American Western"and they do so hilariously.As the boys and"Ken Cabot"(Adam West)undercover investigators for a Boston,Ma.based Animal Protection society.Head out to Casper,Wy. to find out who is killing off The Buffalo and instigating an uprising with The Native Americans and The White Race.There are some funny bits that saterize TV Commcericials,"The Beatles",parking problems and even The supposed pigeon english that the indians were known to speak in the movie westerns.But the real icing on the cake is "The Stooges"foiling the villians in I a duel that spoofs "High Noon"and a combination chase and pie fight that tops what the boys,Quinn Redecker , Vicki Trickett&George Neise endured in"The Three Stooges Meet Hercules!".And A tough idea of Criminal reform that Moe,Larry and Curly Joe put the nine seven of the nine outlaws thru in "Rance Rodin's Saloon".There is also memorable performances from:Nancy Kovacks(Who played Annie Oakley.Not Belle Starr as one reviewer of this website has mistakenly written),Halrold(Tiny)Brauer as a wisecracking bartender,Murrary Alper and A pre(Rowan & Martin's Laugh In)Henry Gibson as Tough old world indian "Chief Battle Horse"and his hip poetry speaking son:"Chief Charlie Horse",Don Lamound(Larry Fine's Son In Law),Mort Mills and Rex Holman as the film's main villians:"Rance Rodin","Trigger Mortis"and "The Sunstroke Kid".Plus Nine of the USA's most popular kids tv hosts/performers playing the nine Outlaws(Sally Starr as Belle Starr,Johnny Ginger as Billy The Kid,Bruce Sedly as:Johnny Ringo,Hal Fryer as:Cole Younger,Paul Shannon as:Wild Bill Hickok,Ed T.McDonell as:Bat Masterson,Wayne Mack as:Jesse James and my hero"Officer Joe"Bolton as:Rob Dalton)and Emile Sitka.Who plays three roles:"Mr.Abernathy The pompus head of The National Society For The Preservation Of American Wildlife",a Native American medicine man and a Pompus US Calvery Officer.In All! This is the funniest of "The Three Stooges"Feature films.Kevin S.Butler.

Summary: The last stooge movie is a classic
Comment: I just got done watching this movie about an hour ago. I must say that it's worth you're time and money if you're a stooge fan. Moe ' Larry, and Curly-Joe do a really good job for their final completed movie. Larry Fine would have a stroke on the set of 'Kooks Tour'. Emil Sitka was going to replace Larry but their movie contract fell through the roof and Sitka never got to work as one of the Stooges. Thanks for all the great work you've done for over 30 years guys.

Summary: Stooges' last completed feature and best!
Comment: The Outlaws Is Coming, released in 1965. The Stooges head west, along with Adam (Batman) West and take on the most villainous outlaws in history, played by popular local TV kiddie show characters. Annie Oakley (played by cutie Nancy Kovak) falls in love with hapless West, and helps them try to stop the crooks who want to slaughter the buffalo. Look for Henry (Laugh-In) Gibson as a college educated hipster Indian, and Emil Sitka in a dual role, his last. (Incidently, Sitka is actually the last surviving member of the Stooges, not Curly-Joe, since he was hired by Moe to replace Larry for an unmade film "The Jet Set" in 1975). In the end, The Three Stooges ride off into the sunset much as they first entered Hollywood, with the rain pouring and Moe whacking his partners over the head! Moe's son-in-law Norman Maurer (producer, director, story writer) finally got it right with complete ending titles and nice script doing justice to the Stooges in their final completed feature film, and their best. The boys went on to do cartoons, then commercials, a US Savings Bond film, and finally their last, Kook's Tour (see my review for that film under "Jongi"). The Outlaws Is coming is highly recommended to all!

Editorial Reviews:

The 1965 film The Outlaws Is Coming! is the last full-length effort by Moe, Larry, and Curly Joe. Of all their features, this is the most dated by its references to people and things that were quite familiar to audiences then, but most of which have lost their meaning over the years. When an Asian guy with long hair and guitar passes by, Moe's exclaiming "A Japanese Beatle" still has a point. But when Larry and the bartender are doing what is obviously a spoof on a then-current commercial, one looks in vain for footnotes to support the joke. Even the presence of Laugh-In comic Henry Gibson as Charley Horse (a typical Stooges name), a hippy-dippy son of a chief, loses its humor for a younger generation unfamiliar with the once popular show and the flower child slang the character uses. Youngsters might still recognize Adam West, who was yet to play Batman, since the series is still being rerun. But they will not get all the references to then-popular television heroes such as Wyatt Earp and Bat Masterson, who show up in a parody of their usual characters along with Jessie James, Rob Dalton, Wild Bill Hickok, and Johnny Ringo (with a reference to the British Ringo on the soundtrack). Belle Star is played glamorously by Nancy Kovak, and gunman Trigger Mortis is played with good villainy by Mort Mills (a name as funereal as his character's!). The plot is environmentally correct, with West and Stooges wanting to save the buffalo, while the evil Rance Roden (Don Lamond) wants to wipe them out to infuriate the Indians and then sell them guns to wreak revenge. The inevitable chase at the end is not really bad, even down to the pie throwing. All in all, an amusing romp, even if knowledge of 1965 nostalgic details are needed to follow many of the gags. --Frank Behrens
