Mad cap humor
Olson and Johnson were perhaps the funniest of all comedy acts in the 1930s. Their mad cap humor was slowed down considerably by film but the closest recent humor was probably Rowan and Martin's style.
Olson's high pitched giggle alone was enough to have an entire theater roaring with laughter.
Their most famous show was Hells-A-Poppin'.
Sit back and enjoy one of the best of the best!

Goofy but likable
A sort of mystery, but mostly an excuse for Olsen and Johnson's wacky, disjointed comedy. If you've never seen them, imagine Rowan and Martin (from Laugh In) in the 30s. Hard to dislike a comedy with this much energy.

ALL OVER TOWN
Sound out of sync on the version I downloaded. Too bad, because I've never seen this Olsen & Johnson film.
UPDATE: the sync is fine if you use VLC player. When I used BSPlayer, the sync was off. Go figure!
Anyway, I'm happy now :)

Sync and Streaming

The avi's sync is spot on throughout.
Streaming
Unless you are able to use their new stream player, it will indeed buffer and get nowhere. Just guessing, but the old player was based on flv files, the new on mp4. There is no flv file for this film.
It plays fine if you can use the new player. Progress?

Sorry, Can't Watch Film...
Wanted to see this film, but it won't stop "buffering" and become visible.
