5.0 out of 5 stars Question: What's better then Laurel and Hardy?, 25 May 2004
By A Customer
Answer: Two of them!

This compilation as its name suggests features Laurel and Hardy playing two roles in the same films.
In Brats they play both father and son.
In Twice Two they play both husband and wife.
In Our Relations they play their own twin brothers.
Our Relations is the main feature on the DVD lasting approximately 70 minutes, and the picture quality as usual with this collection is outstanding. The feature benefits from superior set design and excellent production values.
It is probably the best Laurel and Hardy feature after 'The Sons of the Desert' and 'Way Out West'. The story moves along at a rapid pace, with Laurel and Hardy having most of the screen time, and therefore never becomes boring. (This is a problem with other Laurel and Hardy features such as 'Swiss Miss' and 'Bonnie Scotland' which while having excellent Laurel and Hardy routines devote far too much screen time to less interesting romantic subplots and/or musical numbers).
The colourised version of the film on the DVD is a disappointment, running approximately 6 minutes less then the black and white version. The cuts were made to accommodate American television on which it was first shown. The scenes cut include some of the best moments from the film. Including the sequence involving the photo of them and their twin brothers at the beginning of the film, a real disappointment.
Both Brats and Twice Two last approximately 20 minutes each. Picture quality is again really outstanding, however there appears to be a large amount of back ground noise on the black and white version of Twice Two, which may detract from your overall enjoyment of the film.
I could not detect any cuts from either film in the colourised versions apart from the skate hitting the cat after Ollie has fallen down the stairs in Brats.
Overall this is a really good compialtion, both Our Relations and Brats rank with the teams very best films, and Twice Two although not really top notch Laurel and Hardy is still entertaining.
I would therefore have no hesitation in recommending this DVD.

5.0 out of 5 stars More Great Helpings of Fun From The Boys, 12 Jun 2004
By Calvin Dyson "calvindyson" (Brighouse, England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Why does everyone think that "Twice Two" is so weak!?! Me and my friends love it, but we may be bias. You see the female Hardy looks remarkably like a dinner lady at my high school!
Any way to get to the point all of the items featured on this DVD are great comedies. Just a shame that in "Our Relations" the colour version loses out on about 5 minuites of laugther. Thankfully "Twice Two" loses none and "Brats" only loses a tiny bit.
Once again another great complication from the boys in the Bowler Hats.

Our Relations, the boys' tour-de-force, simply different class, don't let anybody tell you different. Shakespeare! Longfellow! What tickles your pap?!
