Miserable parody on early Chaplin

Rating: 1/10 (8 April 2009)

When I saw this film in Top 250, I decided to see it. And I was really shocked. I think it deserves to be named as most stupid film of all times. Anyway, I never saw anything more stupid. I like Pasolini, Fassbinder, Bunuel mostly European directors. From modern directors – Faith Akin, Dominik Moll, Dagur Kari etc. I like classic films, Chaplin also, yeah. But this film is a miserable parody on early Chaplin. At beginning of 1930's Chaplin already made lot of good comedies where most funny things are NOT in throwing cakes to faces  But in this film throwing and blowing is a MAIN plot, really. So it could be funny in 1918, not later. And I think only Americans can highly appreciate this film. But it's like comparing Beatles and Monkeys  so for Americans it's an usual thing to create new fake heroes :) And – if this is a BEST film of Marx brothers – which can be their WORST ?? 1 out of 10.
