filippaberry84 I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

Sameer Callahan It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.

Lucia Ayala It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.

Skyler Great movie. Not sure what people expected but I found it highly entertaining.

Hitchcoc Ollie is ready to get married when his plump bride's father, Jimmy Finlayson, forbids it. He can't see his daughter hooked up with this guy. Well, the logical thing to do, is to elope. Stan is given the job of assisting the loving couple. Unfortunately, rather than a limo to support the two rather large folks, he gets a small car and when they sit in the back the front of the car rises in the air. This is just the beginning as things go from bad to worse. With all that happens, they darn near pull it off, which is almost a first for the hilarious duo, but Ben Turpin shows up. He is one of those character actors that needed only use his face. He provides the coup de grace because of his one amazing feature. It is to die for.

mark.waltz Chubby rich girl Babe London is all giddy because it's her wedding day, that is she thinks until her father James Finlayson sees the photo of her groom: Oliver Hardy. For what reason, we don't know, but let's just presume it's simply because it's Mr. Hardy. After Laurel practically destroys Oliver's attempts to get ready, they have an even more difficult time getting Babe out of her home and into Laurel's tiny little car. Then it's off to justice of the peace Ben Turpin's for an even bigger mix-up. The visual gags are a big delight, starting with the goofy pictures of the plump bride and groom to be. Oliver gets burnt thanks to a toxic bottle of perfume and eventually literally brings out the dining room and all the intended decorations. A comic delight from start to finish, it made me want to see more of the charming Ms. London.

mbanak I am reviewing my L&H knowledge in anticipation of showing these films to others. Just saw this gem tonite. The year is 1931 and the boys have hit their stride in the sound era. I am surprised at how well the gags are paced and executed. There is one prolonged sequence that could have been timed better, but it is punctuated adequately with a couple of sight gags and we are soon back on track.I am wondering now whether this film would work with any other comedians at the helm. Ollie's childish gestures of sentiment towards his beloved fiancé are utterly precious. Stan is the perfect dope, ruining everything in his path as they gear up for the wedding.Silent era film-goers were probably pleased to see Ben Turpin make an appearance near the end. Before I show this film to others, I may have to explain Turpin's role in that era.Highly recommended. Allow no interruptions.

Jackson Booth-Millard Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy are the most famous comedy duo in history, and deservedly so, so I am happy to see any of their films. Ollie is preparing to get married to his beloved Dulcy (Babe London), while Stan is setting the table, and filling a mouth spray squirter with bug spray to kill the flies on the cake, which Ollie puts in his mouth, needing ice, which he slips on and crashes into the table, his face landing in the cake, and causing many room objects to drop. Dulcy's father (James Finlayson) has forbidden her to marry Ollie after seeing his picture, so Ollie and Stan go to her house to take her and get eloped (secretly married), which the father manages to find out about from Stan. There is a big fuss trying to get a ladder, get Dulcy's luggage, and especially squeezing into the small limousine, but they eventually get to the Justice of the Peace, only to have a cross-eyed official (Ben Turpin) shaking hands with and kissing Stan and Ollie. Filled with good slapstick and all classic comedy you want from a black and white film, it is an enjoyable film. Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy were number 7 on The Comedians' Comedian. Worth watching!
