Review – A Night at the Opera

I’ve heard that some folks consider this the best picture the Marx Brothers ever did. I’m not enough of a connoisseur to be able to make a pronouncement like that, but I can say for sure that this is a really funny movie. It’s got some slow spots (especially the non-Marx musical numbers), but the excellent physical comedy more than makes up for it. I can’t say which is my favorite routine, the cabin on the steamship or the opera at the end. But with two such excellent choices (not to mention several other classic moments spread throughout the production), this one’s worth a look. Worth seeing
