Duck Soup, produced in 1933, was the 5th movie made by the famous Marx Brothers. The four comedians are in this delightful movie; Groucho, Harpo, Chico and Zeppo. Arguably one of the three best movies they ever made, along with "Horse Feathers" and "A Night at the Opera", the plot is rediculous but the actors are believable enough and do an adequate job. But it isn't about the storyline or acting; it is about the unique brand of comedy that only the Marx brothers could do. The sight gags and one-liners are terrific. Margaret Dumont is absolutely wonderful as the recipient of Groucho's barbs. The scene with Harpo and the lemonade vendor is worth the price of the DVD by itself. And the mirror sequence where two of his brothers impersonate Groucho is perfect. This is pretty straightforward. Get this movie; absolutely everyone will enjoy it.Read full review
