Along with "Duck Soup" (1933), this is Marx Bros.' funniest comedy. Every single line is a riot, along with many classic scenes (a stateroom packed to capacity, boys moving the furniture to confuse a dim-witted police inspector, "a battleship in Le Trovatore" and many others). The music is excellent, as well.
