Ben Meyers’ Rating: 4.1|5.0 Starsìììì
Room Service—one-of-a-kind, fun watch—provides the enjoyable, creative comedy of the Marx Brothers: Chico, Harpo, and Groucho Marx. This film relies on limited stage setting which kindly allows the audience to focus on story and dialogue. Audiences can appreciate this rarely seen technique for a theatrical release. Watch for Lucille Ball's appearance in this film. It's great to see the brothers again.
