One of the Greatest Comedy's of all time.

Rating: 10/10 (12 February 2003)

This is how high-brow, slapstick, one-liner comedy is supposed to be. Today, filmmakers think they can throw silly sight gags and bathroom jokes our way and make them work. The Marx Brothers proved that their was method to their madness. Sadly some people who watch these films today just don't get it...and they never will. "Duck Soup" is their masterpiece with satirical and ironic humor mixed in with perfectly timed antics. Their comedy is like a ballet. WARNING: Those who fancy Pauly Shore, Adam Sandler, and Tom Green are beyond help and will never rise to the Marx Brothers level. Maybe that's why the first review left for this film bothered me so much. If that person could not see the brilliance throughout this film, they have no buiness critiquing movies.
