After some real clunkers in the '40s, it's nice to be able to say that L & H's final film is a good one.
Okay, so they look pretty old and they are the only members of the cast who haven't been dubbed, but this film is highly entertaining and filled with vintage Stan and Ollie humour. The concept of them building a home on a deserted island is literally previously unexplored territory and there is an effective underlying message about how a 100%-tolerance society can result in anarchy.
It might take some getting used to but it's still a film well worth seeing.
