About
You’ll likely enjoy this if you like classic Laurel and Hardy-style mix-ups, war-era comedy, or titles like Block-Heads and Way Out West; Not for you if you want fast pacing or a purely light tone.
Pros: charming duo chemistry; good slapstick laughs; sweet-hearted premise | Cons: uneven pacing; dated presentation; sentimental stretches
