Geoffrey MacNab, The Independent, 21st October 2018Stan & Ollie review

Lewis Knight, The Mirror, 21st October 2018'Stan & Ollie': film review | London 2018
There was little that was bold or adventurous about Laurel and Hardy's comedy, which is doubtless why their films have not been rediscovered by younger generations over the past half-century; unusually for top comics, their work was benign, not subversive. But even if it only occasionally provokes big laughs, this sweet, small film makes you smile most of the way through, which may be a more uncommon feat.
