Review of At the Circus (1939) by Gregory W — 01 Jun 2008
There are a few highlight's in this one but overall, it's a pretty bad Marx Bros. movie. The plot is poor to start with, and even though I understand that it is only a vehicle for the Marx Bros. to do their thing, it started annoying me that they were helping these idiot circus owners(?). "Take a Bow" my a**.
Anywho, they do some pretty funny things in other people's carriages (yes, they're on a train), and Groucho has some really good one-liners. But, it lacks the momentum of other titles, and the musical parts are really, really dated. Ughhh...
Uhh boy. Get "Duck Soup" first OK?
