"Half-Shot Shooters" is half-baked

It's World War I, and the Stooges are tormented by their sergeant (Stanley Blystone). Even when the war ends, Curly and Larry receive black eyes and Moe gets his arm broken by the sarge. The Stooges exact some delicious revenge upon him, however!

Cue ahead 17 years to the depression. The Stooges are tricked into re-enlisting in the army, and their good ol' sarge is their to take them by the hand once again. Will the Stooges and the sarge mend fences this time?

"Half-Shot Shooters" was banned in Holland, and it's not difficult to see why: ultra-violence permeates this short. One reason the Stooges are funny is that the slaps and pokes they receive are brief and the pain is minimal. We can relax knowing that and enjoy their films.

What is NOT funny is seeing the Stooges inflicted with long-lasting pain that is fully in view of the audience (black eyes, a broken arm, busted eardrums). In addition, this torment is inflicted by a sadistic sergeant who enjoys what he does to the boys.

"Half-Shot Shooters" has some funny moments, but the violence level here can make even the most devoted Stooge fan uncomfortable. 5 out of 10.
