Cheryl A clunky actioner with a handful of cool moments.

StormSworder The 1940s saw the decline of what were once the greatest comedy pairing in history, as they were placed in the hands of people who obviously had no idea what had previously made them so funny. It is fair to say that Laurel and Hardy were getting too old for slapstick comedy, had to rely more on verbal humour. That shouldn't be too much of a problem, unless of course the verbal humour is rubbish. The duo were given a script and told to stick to it, were not allowed any input into it. That, I think, was a fatal flaw, as L & H had always been great comedy innovators. Indeed, they would turn up at conventions and have audiences in fits with improvised-on-the-spot material. This film involves the duo finding employment as servants for a boy who, it turns out, is royalty. Problems lie with the stodgy, slow-moving script, the hit-and-miss gags and the fact L & H are just not allowed to play the characters that made them famous. There's the occasional laugh, and this film never goes down to the level of today's lesser 'comedy' films by relying on gratuitous swearing, sexual innuendo and the like (compared to trash like 'Kevin & Perry go Large this film is a masterpiece) but really the script could have been written with anybody in mind.

Boba_Fett1138 Everyone knows that Laurel & Hardy did their best work together in the '20's and '30's but this one is also an enjoyable Laurel & Hardy movie, that differs from their early work but is entertaining and fun in different ways.It's not the sort of Laurel & Hardy movie with lots of slapstick in it, at least not the classic kind of. It's more the sort of comedy that relies on its writing and the comical situations and of course on the way Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy execute it all. They still haven't lost their touch in this movie and it provides the movie with a couple of great and fun moments. Nothing too classic or fancy, just some good old fashioned harmless clean entertainment that still serves its purpose very well.Of course the story isn't much special and at times its also distracting from Laurel & Hardy's antics and it felt it was even holding them down at points but at least the movie has a good enough story, which can't be said about many other Laurel & Hardy flicks from the '40's.The movie made me laugh more than the usual kind of comedy, for that reason alone already I must rate it higher than average.7/10http://bobafett1138.blogspot.com/

scoobyleigh93 Working as chef and butler in the midst of the depression, Laurel and Hardy ruin a dinner party and get hired to be a chef and a butler by rulers of a country, in the process they, accidentally foil a plot, by enemy agents, to poison a young boy king. i like the parts when Oliver and Stan are trying to cut Oliver's famous steak with a saw!!!. then Oliver imitates a lion. this is a classic movie,i wish it was on a DVD. i cant find it. but i watched it on TV. all their movies are good. this should be considered on the good movie list for Laurel and Hardy Movies,its one of my favorites. i also would like to mention other Laurel and Hardy movies that are great. Sons Of The Desert Blockheads The Music Box These are also great Laurel And Hardy Movies.

mandzirm Nothing But Trouble, like most of the films Laurel and Hardy made for MGM and Fox at the end of their career, is really sad to watch. For fans familiar with their earlier work, it is depressing to see them half-heartedly reworking their earlier material. It is unfortunate that these weak films from the end of their career are among their most frequently found video titles. Younger people picking up Nothing But Trouble off the video rack may never realize what they are missing.
