Flying Too Far
23 February 2007
I don't understand why L&H movie "The Big Noise" is rated so low, and I don't understand why this one is rated so high. It only has three or four funny moments in it and has possibly the dumbest (and worst) endings of any Laurel and Hardy movie. Even Atoll-K has a better ending! The "harp" scene is funny as well as Hardy in the bedroom. The suicide scene and the soft shoe are also amusing, but between those four scenes there's about twenty minutes of material. This would have been better as a twenty five minute shot about them. Of the Hal Roach movies, I would probably rate this one towards the bottom of the list.
