Review of Duck Soup (1933) by Matt L — 19 Mar 2008
"I got a good mind to join a club and beat you over the head with it." Like Dr Strangelove, Duck Soup is a piercing satire on war, government, and the politics of people in power, as well as boasting one of the most hysterical set pieces in cinema, the extended fight between Freedonia & Sylvania at the film's end.
The Marx brothers are hilarious and so naturalistic and accustomed to their rhythms you get the feeling they'd be just like this if you had to share a bus ride with them.
