Although none of L&H's full-length films was as good as most of their comedy shorts - with the possible exception of Sons of the Desert and Pardon Us - Blockheads is a respectable effort with some fine comic moments, e.g. Ollie's misperception that Stan has lost a leg in the war. Jimmy Finlayson puts in his usual bit, and Billy Gilbert is wonderful as Ollie's neighbor ("Why do you think I go to Borneo all the time?").
