Summary: Buster is a bank clerk. Overturned glue gets everything, mostly the money, stuck to everything else. When robbers show up he can't "stick 'em up" because his hands are stuck in his pockets. The robbers' hideout is a haunted house designed to scare off police. (imdb)

Amusing, especially the second half in the house, but the first half was a little drawn out.

The glue gag at the beginning says slapstick is a dated form of comedy, but as the film gains momentum and one over-the-top stunt follows another in a good pace owed to great editing, Keaton repeatedly surprises and proves to still be funny.

You could do worse but it's rather weak as Keaton goes. The haunted house bits are pretty good but rather obvious at times and the bank sequence is a snoozer.

the glue gag was good, but it overstayed it's welcome. other than that it's a pretty decent comedy that''s not over the top funny.

After the tedious glue bit in the bank I was pretty much laughing out loud during the entire haunted house section. The "assembled man" trick shot is still incredible 80 years later.

Somewhat unfocused, with a pretty thin thread tying the plot and jokes together. There are a few gags that are just driven into the ground, like the glue and the staircase. Keaton just isn't as creative as I've come to expect here, and it's not a terribly funny movie.
