Review of Duck Soup (1933) by Alex S — 30 Sep 2010
I had heard it said that this movie was one of the Marx Brothers' best. After watching it, for the life of me I can't figure out why anyone would make that claim. Groucho, Chico, and Harpo were out-of-control from the moment the walked onto the scene.
That wouldn't have been so bad if one knew what the basic story was. The plot was erratic at best. So although the antics were hilarious - especially the one with the mirror - if you're looking for an actual story to go with it, I'd suggest seeing "Night in Casablanca" or "Night at the Opera".
