The Marx Brothers - and it doesn't matter that there are only three of them here - are simply masters, especially Groucho, who is an incredible chatterbox. It's unbelievable what comes out of him. The film closely resembles a cabaret performance because it is heavily interspersed with actual opera and singing, as well as musical instrument playing. Despite its inconsistencies, the film holds together well.
