My family loves the Marx Brothers. We did some research on the Marx Brothers family and then set out to watch every one of their movies. We have our absolute favorites that we had to purchase in order to watch again and again: Monkey Business, A Night ...

That's the new and most recent, 1931, manual for how to immigrate illegally into the US via New York, Ellis Island, and then how to succeed in the gangster dominated society of New York City. Of you are a stowaway, better be four because they will never ...

MONKEY BUSINESS is clearly one of the Marx Brothers funniest films. Most of the great skits come in the first half of the film, while all are still onboard ship. There is a plot, but it is of less importance, even, than most of the Marx Brothers films. ...
by Josh P. on January 10, 2003
The Marx Brothers, with no character names, play stowaways on board a cruise ship and turn business on board into a game full of tricks. They get involved with unscrupulous gangsters doing dirty deeds. Knock-out laughs in this one. Harpo has a great ...
