When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.

"Uncivil War Birds", directed by Jules White, is a rather unique Three Stooges short. It casts the boys as Southern gentlemen who resolve to fight in the Civil War. The overall situation of Curly's Confederate uniform mixed in with Moe's & Larry's Union outfits is entertaining indeed. One highlight: In order to obtain some Confederate uniforms for Moe & Larry, Curly scoops up a pile of red ants and slips them down the trousers of two Confederate soldiers.With the Stooges sporting long sideburns and speaking in Southern drawls, "Uncivil War Birds" offers a refreshing change of pace to the long list of Three Stooges shorts. (In addition, a fine arrangement of "Dixie" is heard during the opening credits in place of the standard "Three Blind Mice".) Somehow, I really feel that Larry is the one who stands out in this film, and he truly deserves to, after all the times he's been pushed into the background. As for Curly, he was suffering some health troubles, but in this film they are fortunately not very noticeable.

We are back in the Civil War days and the boys, as they usually did, play Confederates and you hear the phrases like "You all," "I reckon," "shore 'nuff," etc., more than you want to hear, at least at the beginning.The Civil War parts of this "adventure,",which make up most of the story, have an odd twist. The boys apparently lived in a border state when some joined the Union, some joined the Confederacy. We know this because two minutes after the boys enlist, Moe and Larry are in blue and Curly is in gray. (Odd that could happen in the same town, but, hey, it's a movie.) Nonetheless, the boys realize this and from then on, are all on the same page.There are a few things in this movie you would never see or hear today, in a PC or family film of this type: 1 - the boys dress up as slaves and sing "Dixie;" 2 - Moe says to the guys, "Brother, y'all ejaculated a mouthful." I thought I had heard wrong but played it back with English subtitles and, lo and behold, that's what he said. Well, there are a lot of thing in this episode that have far different meanings today.The Stooges' version of Dixie had a northern twist which produced a few laughs, such as "way down yonder in New York City" and stanzas about the "cotton in Brooklyn."Mostly this one just makes a small Union army group look really stupid while the Stooges keep fooling them with different uniforms and disguises. In all, it's a fair episode, ranking about in the middle of all their comedy short films.

I remember that in my teens that this was one of my favorite shorts but when I watched this short again recently, I thought that the short was good but not a classic, it does have its highs and lows, the highs was Curly seemed to be in decent health in this short and the ending was a hoot, the lows was Moe's wraths were pretty limited (cause half the times Moe would just not do anything to Larry and Curly) and the plot was pretty weak, overall it's one of the better shorts from Curly's decline period but it falls short of most of the early 1940's stooge shorts. 7/10 (would've been 5/10 if this was a Shemp short).

This short is very controversial because many people really like it and many people hate it. I for one really like it. I liked this one because they tried something new, and there was some great visual humor and gags. Curly turned in a great performance despite illness. Moe and Larry also do a great job in this short. I also think the supporting cast did a great job too.Grade: A-
