Not that funny.

Rating: 3/10 (25 June 2017)

I usually love old comedies. Laurel and Hardy makes me laugh so much it hurts.
But Duck Soup is extremely overrated. There are some genuinely funny parts, but most of the time it only made me chuckle. It's just endless one-liners and some mean-spirited slapstick scenes that last forever. I also didn't like the creepy sexual stuff near the end of the movie. It's "mild" compared to modern movies, but still...
I didn't see the last few minutes of Duck Soup, but I really doubt those minutes would change my opinion.
I haven't watched a lot of the Marx Brothers' comedies, but if this is their best movie, I don't want to see their worst...
