Review of At the Circus (1944) by Joel A — 08 Jun 2010
The Marx Bros what can be said that hasn't already....they are a talented bunch no doubt about it. The film itself wasn't great and the trio wheren't as funny as there where in the other films, but I still enjoyed it...a chuckle here and there.
To me I find Groucho the funniest, but Harpo is so clever is his own right, they all compliment each other rather well. There are quite a few good scenes in this film, to me the standout is the midget house scene and the goliath bedroom scene they are a real cracker.
All in all not the quinessential Marx Bros film, but in my opinnion well worth a watch, I think buy this stage in their career they had a well oiled machine and kind of lost there early spark from the early 30's....but once again still rather enjoyable...
