Disappointing and overrated

Rating: 3/10 (8 September 2006)

The movie was nowhere near most of the reviews which I had read: "Greatest comedy of all time " etc hype. What we get is a slightly below average comedy. Harpo should be put before a firing squad in freedonia for not being in the least bit funny,the same goes for Chico. Their comedy routines together are forced and didn't get one laugh from me - Even the so called classic Lemonade hat sketch left me cold, as did their earlier bit in the Ambassador's office. Some of Groucho's one liners are funny but on the whole I find the Marx brothers leave me cold in this movie. Give me Laurel and Hardy any day - Now, they're funny!
