Funny

Bought back a lot of childhood memories. This is still a very funny movie! Since Don Knotts passed away I have watched several of his movies. He was a very funny actor!

Great family movie

I agree with the review written by cordell jeffries. This is a movie for the entire family with no worries about what will be said or what you will view on screen. I am enjoying introducing my 8-year-old daughter to all the movies I watched when I was younger and the movies her 25-year-old brother watched over and over as a child. I only wish those making movies today would take note and realize that not everyone wants to hear vulgar words and view explicit scenes in movies or even on television for that matter. I would highly recommend this movie for families and anyone looking for some innocent laughs. Tim Conway and the late Don Knotts provide plenty.

Great classic knotts/conway movie

My 6 year old son saw this movie at school and begged for it. I had no idea that it would appeal to today's kids. I saw it at the movies when I was a kid. WE love it. Good clean fun for all ages.

A classic children's film

These days we cannot allow our children to watch actual television, so we supply them with good wholesome entertainment. This is a classic fun movie from my own childhood that my kids will enjoy for years to come.

outstanding alternative to Disney/Pixar formulaic releases of today

Head for cover! Don Knotts and Tim Conway are Wild West outlaws who can't hit the broad side of a barn -- but never miss when it comes to rounding up laughs! The hilarity begins when a roving bachelor (Bill Bixby) inherits three young orphans and a wealth of problems. When the youngsters stumble upon a huge golden nugget, they must fend off the greedy townspeople. So the kids join forces with the bumbling outlaws to stage a robbery of the gold. Little do they know a surly gang of sharpshooters plans to beat them to the draw! If you're aiming for fun, saddle up and head out with THE APPLE DUMPLING GANG!

Hilarious and kid friendly

Don Knotts and Tim Conway are about the funniest pair ever and this is a great movie to watch with your kids. I enjoy watching comedies with my kids and there isn't a whole lot out nowadays that you can safely watch without embarrassing moments.

Disappointed

This DVD was poor quality, and you could not really enjoy the movie, good movie, just poor quality, plus I thought it would have more of Tim and Don in it.

Excellant

If you are looking for a clean funny movie without sex, violence, and cursing this is the right movie. It is one of the funniest movies I have ever seen. Very family orient and I recommend it to anyone.

Excellent family comedy! Don Knotts & Tim Conway are at their best!
Three orphaned siblings are forced upon confirmed bachelor Russel Donovan(Bixby) in a 19nth century boom town of Quake City, California. After an earthquake shakes the area, the children find a large gold nugget worth tens of thousands of dollars. But their newfound wealth is causing more problems than it's solving, so they decide to "give" the gold to 2 bumbling outlaws, Theodore & Amos (Knotts&Conway). But the only way they can get the gold is to steal it from the bank vault where it's being held for safekeeping.

Theodore: About five hundred.
Amos: Five hundred? WOW! You know, that'll be, uh, that's two hundred apiece!
