- Synopsis
- On a transatlantic crossing, the Marx brothers get up to their usual antics and manage to annoy just about everyone on board the ship. While stowing away on a ship to America, the boys get involuntarily pressed into service as toughs for a pair of feuding gangsters while trying desparately to evade the ship's crew. After arriving stateside, one of the gangsters kidnaps the other's daughter - and it's up to our unlikely heroes to save the day.

"Volcanically funny."
-
"McLeod was in charge of the mayhem, S. J. Perelman had a hand in the script and Monkey Business is just as funny as it was in 1931"
-
"One of the Marx Brothers' funniest films, Monkey Business was their first to be written directly for the screen and is noticeably less stagy than earlier efforts."
-
"With Monkey Business, their first screen original, the team cast caution to the winds, helped by a perky script and some lunatic sight gags."
