Stan and Ollie, happily married pillars of the local community, find their reputations plummeting for no apparent reason, when, unbeknownst to them, their long-lost, no-good twin brothers, Alf and Bert, sail into town looking for a good time – albeit on a budget, in this atypical, intricately and tightly plotted Laurel and Hardy feature, a well crafted and consistently entertaining film.
