Customer Rating:      Summary: candle at both ends Comment: The "night at the oprea" is really the only one that is very funny,the other ones,are not there famous movies,and are not as funny as there classics,but they are ok.
Customer Rating:      Summary: avoid this company Comment: The transaction was not satisfactory. The purchase was a gift and they included an invoice with it. Not smart. Why isn't there an option that would have averted this?
Customer Rating:      Summary: Marx Brothers Collection Comment: This is a great collection of the Marx Brothers movies. I bought this collection because it contained a number of movies I had not seen. It was worth the price, because I enjoy their movies. It was a decent transfer onto the dvd format.
Customer Rating:      Summary: A very funny time waching these movies Comment: Kick off your shoes and plan to stay awhile for a laughen good time. you won't be disappointed as you watch the crazy goinging ons. You see the Marx brothers are very sincere about their plans but how they go about it will leave you howling in your seat, looking forward to seeing the next movie. So if you are blue, need a pick up or just love the Marxs brothers as I do purchase this collection. a sure pleaser and keeper for life.

This set includes seven of only thirteen Marx Brothers films ever made! Collection includes: "A Night at the Opera" (1935) - The Marx Brothers turn Mrs. Claypool's opera into chaos in their efforts to help two young hopefuls get a break. It contains the famous scene where Groucho, Chico and Harpo cram a ship's stateroom with wall-to-wall people, gags, one-liners, musical riffs and two hard-boiled eggs. "A Day at the Races" (1937) - Groucho stars as Hugo Z. Hackenbush, a horse veterinarian dispensing horse pills and quips with equal glee. Chico selling racing tips, Harpo destroying a piano to turn it into a harp and favorite foil actress Margaret Dumont make this thoroughbred comedy wall-to-wall hilarity. "A Night in Casablanca" (1946) - This parody of the Bogart/Bergman 1943 classic features the Nazis vs. the "nutsies" as the Marx Brothers foil Axis criminals when they find stolen jewels and paintings Nazis have hidden in a hotel. "Room Service"/"At the Circus" - These two films are combined on one disc to provide double doses of laughter. In "Room Service" (1938), Lucille Ball and Ann Miller provide comic co-star support while the Marx Brothers play producers trying to keep their show above water and a hotel room over their head. In "At the Circus" (1939) Groucho stars as professional shyster lawyer J. Cheever Loophole in the middle of big-top bedlam as the boys try to save the circus and look to Margaret Dumont for the money to do so. Groucho sings one of his famous songs, "Lydia the Tattooed Lady." "Go West"/"The Big Store" - Another Marx Brothers twin bill makes this a hilarious comedy "two-fer." In the first, the Marxmen "Go West" (1940) to the land of outlaws and Indians where the fun never stops and where they outwit a land grabber. In "The Big Store" (1941), Groucho plays Attorney Wolf J. Flywheel who with sidekick Wacky (Harpo) and bodyguard Ravelli (Chico) are investigating the shady dealings of a crooked department store owner. Bonus extras include commentary by Leonard Maltin.
