This Kate Upton movie by the Farrelly brothers is an ideal choice for moviegoers with a soft corner for slapstick comedy. The comedy team, The Three Stooges, was popular back in the day and is based on the film shorts that aired between 1934–59.

The story centers around Moe Howard, Larry Fine, and Curly Howard who were dropped off at the Sisters of Mercy Orphanage when they were young. The three of them always stick together and land in trouble without fail. The sisters at the orphanage have their hands full and the attempts to get the three adopted always lead to dead ends.

Kate Upton plays Sister Bernice and it becomes apparent soon enough that she is not quite as conservative as some of the other nuns, but she is still a kind soul with everyone's best interests at heart. The lead actors, Chris Diamantopoulos, Sean Hayes, and Will Sasso, complement each other very well, adding to the viewing experience.
