Anti-war satire as only the Marx Bros. could do (Leader 1: "I am willing to do anything to prevent this war." Leader 2: "It's too late, I've already paid a month's rent on the battlefield"). What was once outlandish reads in the current day as almost tongue-in-cheek. The gag that gets me every time is Harpo dancing like a daintily to an alarm clock, but it's one of many. Bizarre, surreal, and euphorically funny.

On 2020 viewing, I'd say about half of the jokes don't land. But there are some really funny bits, most obviously the classic mirror scene. If you ever loved any of the Bugs Bunny cartoons, this is where the zany, anarchic, insanity originated.

This is a very madcap, zany comedy, which I thought was quite amusing at times. It highlights the ironies of war. Its regarded as a classic - I wouldn't say its something I'd want to watch again but it is certainly entertaining and so a reasonably good watch.

Arguably the best known Marx collaboration is an enjoyable enough outing for the brothers, though (and this is beside the point) the lack of plot and structure means that it ultimately becomes a series of revue skits and quips, rather than creating and developing a comic tension, which becomes wearying after a while. Still, some great and memorable scenes, especially the hilarious mirror sequence which does indeed build a considerable amount of comic tension (and with Chico's perfect capper!)

The first half-hour is barely watchable. It got a bit better later.

Despite starting with what is popularly argued as being their best film, somehow my first real exposure to the iconic Marx Brothers was sadly severely disappointing. Maybe the characters have just been diluted over time by countless imitations, or maybe ultimately their particular brand of comedy just isn't quite for me. Although I appreciated the political satire and witty word play, sadly at best the jokes were mildly amusing, but then most of the slapstick was more frustrating than funny.

My first Marx Bros. movie. Harpo Marx was very annoying. A lot of clever wordplay. The racism caught me off guard: "My father was a little headstrong, my mother was a little armstrong. The Headstrongs married the Armstrongs, and that's why darkies were born." Fav scenes: war song and mirror scene.

The rapid-fire puns, the political satire and the overall spirit of anarchy make this film still quite entertaining, but even with its short running time some of the slapstick sequences feel drawn out. The lack of anyone to root for lets the film seem a little mean-spirited.

The country of Freedonia is going bankrupt. Wealthy dowager Margaret Dumont will bail them out, but only if they make her beau Groucho Marx their new leader. This angers romantic rival Louis Calhern, the ambassador from the neighboring country Sylvania. He hires spies Chico and Harpo Marx to undermine Groucho's rules. A hell of a lot of chaos ensues culminating in war between the two countries.

How much comedy is too much comedy? I felt tired after this film ended, and it was only 68 minutes.

Whereas the physical humor of Chaplin and Keaton never really got old – arguably because it was never again done so well – the dialogue-heavy humor of Duck Soup has aged rather poorly. Most of the jokes have nothing to do with the story or the characters, making the movie feel less like a movie and more like a comedy show. Some of the more absurdist jokes are great – the mirror scene, for example – but way too many of the attempts at humor fell flat for me.
