Duck Soup (McCarey, 1933)
What can I say about it? It's Marx Brothers. If you've seen any Marx Brothers that should tell you all you need to know about it. They're very good at what they do. Some parts are hilarious, but those are mostly the parts where it's just Groucho rattling off one liners or Harpo screwing around with someone. The funny parts have nothing to do with the ridiculous plot. It's not a movie you generally watch when you're over ten, unless you're slavishly following a critics' list like I am.
Rating: ** / 5 for adults, **** / 5 for kids
