Sublime comedy genius from iconic group. Early sound-era caper, not short on laughs + a fascinating snapshot of the era.
Almost 100 years old, so the sense of humor is dated, but these movies are famous for a reason.
Very funny. Has several memorable and quotable scenes. Now, "I must be... going
My first full viewing of the famous Marx brothers. Fine display of talent with Groucho's comedic presence stealing the show.
The bros Marx make their absurdity seem effortless. Plot always dissolves once they’re on screen, but that’s the point. Many hilarious bits.
Non-stop laughs from some comic geniuses at the top of their game.
Surprisingly gets some laughs out of sheer absurdity and word play. Probably the best Marx Brothers movie.
First Marx brothers film for me. This is acclaimed? Over done annoying “witty” humor. Horrible supporting cast acting. Etc. etc.
I chuckled in places but this was just painful to sit through.
One of many zany and hilarious classics from the Marx Bros!
