The finale of this film demonstrates what the Marx Brothers do best - make comic sense out of a string of crazy happenings thrown together. Every comic plotline finds closure and the laughs fly fast and furious during a football game full of ridiculous sight gags. Madcap comedy at its finest.

Horsefeathers ontains some of the Marx Brothers best bits, including the speak-easy scene, the shootout in the classroom, and the football game finale. It also has some of their best lines. It's all pretty simple plot-wise. Groucho is Wagstaff, and new head of a University. Zeppo is his suave son who is swooning the villian's daughter. Harpo's a dog catcher. Chico's an iceman. The funny thing about these guys are their unique comedy they're all so different from each other, yet combined together, the comedy works and there is a perfect balance.
