It has a traditional farce plot, which is at odds with the Marx Brothers' style. When silliness breaks out, it's jarring and confusing as often as funny (usually both), and when it returns to the story it's a tedious distraction. The jokes are great, and a lot of the routines are hilarious, but overall it's a badly-made movie.
