Still a reasonable and entertaining slapstick comedy from Abbott and Costello. This time with cameos from Costello's daughter Carole Costello and Mack Sennett. This was also the last film with Sennett as an actor. In addition, Hank Mann, Harold Goodwin and Heinie Conklin previously worked on silent films by the original Keystone Kops. This was their 13th "Keystone Kops" film. Initially, "Universal-International" wanted to rename the film "Abbott and Costello in the Stunt Men" because they felt the Keystone Kops were no longer relevant. However, in October 1954 they gave permission to use the title "Keystone Kops".
Not exactly a classic among the Abbott and Costello films, but entertaining enough for a lazy Sunday afternoon.
