Stan & Ollie
Comedy of a different kind we live with the comedy duo Laurel and Hardy. The world's most famous comedian began rekindling their career as they embark on an impulsive play tour in post-war Britain. Maybe that tour is more comedy and real drama we live with the duo who missed a lot of theater and comedy wonderful.

Baird's vaguely iffy comedic drama is unusual as it dwells upon the beloved comedy duo when they were older, bitterer and poorer.

Poignant, funny and deceptively eloquent.

In lieu of some emotional extremities, Stan & Ollie suffices as an okay-enough look into the later lives of two legends.

Stan & Ollie does a nice job keeping alive the memory of two gifted comedians whose work should never be forgotten.

"Stan & Ollie" has plenty to say about the things that bring us together, and the things that keep us together.

Perfectly cast, sharply written, beautifully shot and full of some of the best slapstick and comedic timing since Laurel and Hardy themselves graced the silver screen.

When it's not trying too hard, "Stan & Ollie" is itself a sweetly charming good time.

[T]his one is worthwhile viewing, no matter how lightly it might tread.

Both a celebration and lamentation about one of the great comedy duos of the 20th Century...one of the best films we've had so far about the dizzying highs and sobering lows of show business.

It's a modest film, but a very good one, and by the end I was quite moved by its valiant belief in decency and in the duo's eternal appeal.

A rueful and respectful tribute that stands on its own because of the extraordinary performances of Steve Coogan as Stan and John C. Reilly as Ollie.

It's a film made with an enormous amount of care and affection. And Coogan and O'Reilly don't just perform. They resurrect.
