I was VERY disappointed in a few of the scenes of this movie. To stay in the loop on more movies like this, you can sign up for weekly Family Movie Night emails. The Three Stooges is much tamer than the Farrellys' usual fare, and a semi-comical disclaimer at the end addresses the movie's violence and urges kids not to try it, but this is still the most juvenile brand of broad comedy. Expect a few suggestive sexual situations and comical innuendo, as well as insulting language like 'stupid,' 'moron,' and 'shut up.' The reality show Jersey Shore is featured prominently. Also, the movie's plot has the Stooges accepting a job to murder a man for money, though they naively believe that he's dying and that the money will go to save an orphanage. This constant slapstick has no physical effect and no consequences for the Stooges themselves, though secondary characters do receive injuries.
Though the Stooges are generally good-hearted and have the best intentions, they're exceedingly violent, mainly to one another.
Parents need to know that The Three Stooges is the Farrelly brothers' tribute to the famous 1930s/40s comedy team.
