Plot

The gang unintentionally wreaks havoc at the gala Hollywood premiere of the adventure epic Gun Boats. Chased away by the angry authorities, the undaunted kids decide to stage their own movie premiere—and they even film a movie for the occasion. Unfortunately, the gang's cinematic effort, entitled The Mysteeryus Mystery, is not as entertaining as the efforts by Buckwheat to remove his feet from a block of cement. [2]
