One of the world's great comedy teams set out on a variety hall tour of Britain in 1953. Diminished by age and with their golden era as the kings of Hollywood comedy now behind them, they face an uncertain future. As the charm and beauty of their performances shine through, they re-connect with their adoring fans. The tour becomes a hit, but Stan and Ollie can't quite shake the specter of Laurel and Hardy's past.

Amazing Acting submitted by Sara W on July 20, 2019, 3:04pm Steve Coogan and John C. Reilly shine in these roles - I didn’t know much about the backstory between Laurel and Hardy, but the movie lays out the backstory and their characterizations well. I laughed out loud at some of their routines and it’s a great reminder why this duo was such a hit. A great introduction to this classic comedy team.

Stan & Ollie dvd submitted by a2sue on July 21, 2019, 5:21am The dvd of Stan & Ollie was truly interesting to view. I truly enjoyed learning more about both of them -- they were so talented!

Big Fan of Stan and Ollie, looked forward to seeing this movie. submitted by Tassos on September 9, 2019, 8:43am Good movie overall, good acting by Coogan and O Reilly, but the makeup dept could have done a better job of making O R look like Ollie, or he should have gained 25 lbs min for this movie, or they might have found another actor better resembling him.
