Uranium is discovered and world powers begin fighting over ownership of the island.

Reviews:
"The boys last film is not the clunker that many would have you believe. There are numerous scenes that made me laugh out loud, especially the scenes involving Stan's pet lobster. The style is geared toward more gentle slapstick and philosophical humour that suits the aged stars perfectly.

Back in the 80's and 90's Laurel and Hardy were on TV in the UK. I would watch them with my late grandfather and he would laugh with tears in his eyes. Watching Laurel and Hardy reminds me of his laugh and for that I will love them forever more.

Oliver Hardy died three years before I was born and I was five when Stan passed away, however, all my life nobody, by a lot, has given me so much pleasure and entertainment. Thank's guys.

This movie UTOPIA always receives bad reviews. But after viewing it I say it is quaint and a fond nostalgia for one of the greatest comedy duos in the history of cinema. The film has a charm and innocence about it and it's entertaining. Thank you for posting.

[manicobservations]

This is probably the best copy of the original print of the movie I've ever seen. I appreciate the effort whoever it was that did it, thank you

[pikemeredith]

How great they were even if Stan doesn't look well here. As the saying goes, the show must go on. God bless them both.❤️❤️

[xenophonharlamoff]

It was a pleasure to see again this movie after 60 years, These actors and actress were good in their own acting part. Thank you.

[gordancanadasgraetssingers]

I love these guys very much two genuines from being to end the best comedy team of them all

[marcusfranconium]

Loved this movie, and knowing how hard it was to make for both laurel and hardy. due to health isues makes it even more impresive. .

[clapoutloudclapoutloud]

They killed the movie, meaning it was fun, humor all the way with the best comedy team ever walked the planet. I re watch this movie when I want a great laugh.

[BrainsandFaith]

I love this movie!!!! One of my favorites with them!

[rowbyrowby]

Stan looked worse in this film than when I met him a few times in his Santa Monica California apartment, about 10 years later. The production conditions on this film were a nightmare - it's amazing that any film resulted from the behind the scenes chaos. ...Rowby.

Stan was very I’ll here. He developed colitis, dysentery and a prostate ulcer while on the French locations for the film. He eventually had to go to hospital.

[dirkdreier]

Oh, Olliever und Stan, die reichen für 2 Jahrtausende.... Unvergessen . Where is the Oscar and the Nobel ?

[talkaboutwacky]

I’ve always found this movie charming. I loved the supporting characters as well

[DonnyHooterHoot]

The eternal question of life, "What about me?" RIP guys!

[sergiopeteco]

Lo mejor de la pelicula es el comienzo, con los notables gags, que recuerdan otros tiempos! Despues se diluyen!

[lancelotxavier]

Keep in mind that people's senses were a lot more sensitive back then.
People weren't bombarded with media all day and everywhere.

[phnxlife]

It wasn't received well by the critics...I think it was the messages in the movie that wasn't well received e.g. taxes, passports, corrupt lawyers, governments..love this movie even more so.

[joseyeastwood]

Who doesn't love Laurel and Hardy they were so

[williamdecasas]

May our lord jessus bless laurell and hardy
