Self-important, over-dramatic, uninspired.

if their story seems completely bonkers, almost like a feverish work of fiction, you ain't heard nothing yet.

There's a more than satisfactory amount of boom-boom in the movie's trim running time.

In one of their funniest shorts Moe, Curly and Larry go west as three of the most intrepid scouts of the frontier respectively Wild Bill Hiccup, Buffalo Bilious, and Just Plain Bill. With the Indian Wars done, the cavalry under General Muster is turning its attention to cattle rustlers and the General sends the boys to deal with him.With quite a few laughs they do get the job done. Some wonderful bits as a jackass exposes the camouflage cover of three other jackasses. There's an interesting poker game and finally the Three Stooges with their backs to the wall improvise a Gatling gun to some very funny effects.Moe, Larry, and Curly are really at their top in Goofs And Saddles.

This is one of the Stooges better efforts and one of their best westerns (apparently Moe didn't like doing westerns, but since they turned out to be very popular with their fans, Columbia overrode Moe's misgivings). Curly is at his peak, and there are some very funny and very clever gags (the boys disguising themselves as bushes to spy on the rustlers' camp, a "rigged" card game they play with the head bad guy, the great Stanley Blystone) and even Larry has more to do than usual, and does it well. The Stooges look like they were actually having fun making this one--Moe's aversion to westerns not withstanding--and it shows. A very good short by the boys.

Yikes, that subject headline quote what Three Stooges are told in this old TTS short. Imagine, if that was real life; there would still be no life west of the Mississippi!In this Old West short, the Stooges play "Buffalo Bilous" (Curly), "Wild Bill Hiccup" (Moe) and "Just Plain Bill" (that's Larry for you, always in the middle between the lovable Curly and mean Moe.) Their mission is to get every last cattle rustler and either kill him or bring him in. The rustling has to end! Giving them the orders is "General Muster." Yeah, the writers of the Stooges short films sure loved to be corny went it came to names of people, cities, businesses, you name it.The main foes for the good-guy cowboys are a group led by "Longhorn Pete (Stanley Blystone) who is one, tough hombre and won't take any baloney from the Buffalo Bilous and his partners.Some of the things in here classic Three Stooges and guaranteed to have you laughing out loud. A few of the gags I really liked were when the guys pretended to be big bushes, the p.s. on the note to Gen. Muster written by the guys,and about everything involving Curly, from a donkey chewing his butt, to his vest, to his reactions to people at the bar, on and on. He was a hoot, as usual.

The Three Stooges has always been some of the many actors that I have loved. I love just about every one of the shorts that they have made. I love all six of the Stooges (Curly, Shemp, Moe, Larry, Joe, and Curly Joe)! All of the shorts are hilarious and also star many other great actors and actresses which a lot of them was in many of the shorts! In My opinion The Three Stooges is some of the greatest actors ever and is the all time funniest comedy team! This is one of My favorite Three Stooges shorts with Curly! All Appearing in this short are Hank Bell, Stanley Blystone, Lew Davis, George Gray, Ethan Laidlaw, Eddie Laughton, Theodore Lorch, Sam Lufkin, Hank Mann, Joe Palma, and Cy Schindell! This one is so hilarious! Curly has a great performance here and in My opinion its one of his best. Look for Blystone's archive footage that is in this one in the 1954 Shemp classic Pals and Gals! I strongly recommend both of these Three Stooges shorts!
