Director and cast
Critics on Rotten Tomatoes
Top critics, in their words
[Three Amigos is] a goofy delight. It's like a cross between a big-budget Three Stooges movie and a Hope-Crosby road picture, with dozens of old cowpoke gags thrown in to spice up the brew.
While it's occasionally funny, Three Amigos! isn't an entirely fun occasion.
You know it's a boring comedy when you find yourself laughing only at the lead actors' costumes.
The happy-go-lucky Three Amigos is a picture to see when your expectations are down and you've already been to everything that's good.
