      s r Weak from many points of view, but good for one viewing. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Audience Member just ok later groucho Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/21/23 Full Review Audience Member Lacks creativity, is quite dull and never gets more than a couple of chuckles. Forgettable. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 01/24/23 Full Review Audience Member Was surprized to find this actually wasn't too bad. It's at least mildly amusing, and in fact to some extent I actually liked it more than Love Happy, which was certainly the worst Marx Bros film IMHO. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/23/23 Full Review Audience Member A servicable effort with a decent turn from Groucho Marx in 'You Bet Your Life' mode. Not outstanding but watchable. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/14/23 Full Review Audience Member A very poor effort from Groucho. Every second of this film I was hoping Harpo and Chico would enter and bring some refreshing humour to a film that was sorely lacking. Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/11/23 Full Review Read all reviews Post a rating

      A.H. Weiler New York Times An involved mlange of obvious antics and gags, only one or two of which are likely to generate chuckles. Rated: 2/5 Oct 31, 2006 Full Review Read all reviews
