Have Rocket Will Travel Movie Review

Three janitors (named Moe, Larry, and Curly Joe – sound familiar?) help a scientist who is about to lose her job if she can't send a rocket to Venus. They accidentally initiate the launch while still on board and introduce their brand of slapstick to a whole new planet. While on Venus (which looks a lot more like Colorado), the boys encounter a unicorn who speaks archaic English, a giant spider, and clones of themselves. This feature-length film gave the Stooges’ careers a jump-start and led to five more movies, including The Three Stooges Go Around the World in a Daze and The Three Stooges Meet Hercules(!). They're all good fun for Stooge fans. Lesser humans just won't understand….
