Three Smart Guys (1942)
* 1/2 (out of 4)
Extremely poor Our Gang short from MGM has Froggy, Mickey and Buckwheat skipping school so that they can go fishing but they meet an older man who convinces them that school isn't too bad. I'm really not sure how many, if any, of these MGM/Our Gang shorts I've seen but I really hope this is the worst of the bunch. The biggest issue is that there isn't a single laugh to be found but the strange thing is that it appears no laughs were even attempted to be gained. There's really nothing here that was meant to be funny and just turned out dull. Everything is pretty much straight-forward and I personally can't see any attempt at being funny. Another problem is that the message of not skipping school is so over-dramatic that you can't help but just role your eyes.
