* SugarWiki/HeReallyCanAct: Creator/SteveCoogan and Creator/JohnCReilly have proven their dramatic chops before, but they really have a chance to shine as Creator/LaurelAndHardy as they literally become the iconic duo outside of their comedic routines.

* SugarWiki/HeReallyCanAct: Creator/SteveCoogan and Creator/JohnCReilly have proven their dramatic chops before, but they really have a chance to shine as Creator/LaurelAndHardy as they literally become the iconic duo outside of their comedic routines. Particularly noted was Reilly's realistic portrayal of a much heavier man in poor shape, which requires much more effort than just wearing a fat suit.


Added DiffLines:

** At the end of their argument, when everybody starts watching them and they clearly think it's another bit, rather than a genuine blow-up between friends. When Ollie throws his hat at Stan, there are a few scattered giggles. Stan throws a fruit at the back of Ollie's head as he'd leaving, causing even more laughter.

* AwardSnub: Despite overwhelmingly positive reviews, the film did not receive any Oscar nominations (possibly because it was released quite late in the awards season). John managed a Golden Globe nom but lost to Creator/ChristianBale for ''Film/{{Vice 2018}}''. It could be argued that ComedyGhetto was in effect here, seeing as the Globe nomination was for "Best Actor in a Comedy".

-->'''[[http://collider.com/john-c-reilly-stan-and-ollie-interview John C. Reilly]]:''' I remember going over the dialogue for the big fight scene with Steve [Coogan], which was written one way, and it didn’t quite feel like it had the teeth that it needed to be really cruel ‘cause they’re cruel to each other, in that moment. Me and Steve were just sitting there like, “All right, let me have it. What would you say to me? If I was him, and you were him, what would you say to really hurt me right here?” He said, “You’re just a lazy ass who got lucky,” which really hurt. And then, I called him a hollow man and said, “You’re empty.” Those scenes still really get to me emotionally, when I watch the movie, because they worked in such beautiful harmony.

Misuse.


* HilariousInHindsight: By sheer coincidence, this isn't the only [[Film/HolmesAndWatson period-piece buddy comedy co-starring John C. Reilly released in late 2018]]. The difference here is that ''Stan & Ollie'' received near-universal acclaim, while the other film... [[SnarkBait didn't]].
