wikipedia
A college's new dean must redeem the battered institution by winning a football game.
Every once in a while, I break down and watch a Marx Brothers movie in the hope that it will be the one that finally makes me laugh and helps me recapture my childhood awe of that comedic quatuor. This one was pleasant and made me chuckle, but no laughs.
I liked that the movie was short and that the whole cast looked like they were having a good time. But the humor relies on the same five kinds of jokes (puns being the main one) and that formula just doesn't work for me. In fact, I challenge anyone born after 1960 to point to an actual Marx Brothers sequence that makes them laugh out loud
today — as opposed to when they first watched the movie as a twelve-year-old.
This takes nothing from the movie's quality: it is fun, well put together, and I'm sure it was hilarious when it first came out.
