NekoHomey Purely Joyful Movie!

Matialth Good concept, poorly executed.

Kien Navarro Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

Darin One of the film's great tricks is that, for a time, you think it will go down a rabbit hole of unrealistic glorification.

MartinHafer I love classic Hollywood films but among my least favorites are musicals. It isn't that I dislike them all, but a lot of them seem alike to me. However, it was nice to watch "Copacobana", as it was very different--mostly because Groucho Marx was cast in the lead (and without his brothers). His witty remarks and silly shtick kept my interest, though as often is the case, my attention waned a bit after what felt like one or two songs too many from his co-star, Carmen Miranda. Again, I point out that this is my taste I am talking about here--you might love lots and lots and lots of songs."Copacabana" begins with Groucho and his fiancée, Carmen, behind in their rent and looking for work. She is a singer and he is her dopey agent. Eventually, Groucho is able to convince the owner of the Copacabana (Steve Cochran) to give her an impromptu audition. However, to put over the deal, Groucho talks too much and lies so much that now Cochran wants to see Groucho's OTHER client--a French chanteuse. However, there is no other client--and when he gets a contract for both performers, Groucho is able to talk Carmen into pretending to be both singers! To disguise this, Carmen wears a blonde wig and veil when she is the French lady. What happens next? Well, tune in and see for yourself.Aside from the humor, Groucho actually sings a number like no one else could have done. It's pretty cute and I love the way this number was presented. You'll have to see it for yourself. Carmen was as you'd expect--full of peppy songs and a decent sidekick. While none of it is brilliant, it is entertaining and fun--and worth your time.

gridoon2018 Groucho Marx is a little older and a tad slower in "Copacabana", but many of his one-liners still score, and he made me laugh out loud more times than I can remember. Carmen Miranda manages to keep up with him every step of the way, and she is also funny and entertaining. There is a little too much of the sugary-sweet Andy Russell and Gloria Jean (don't get me wrong, Jean is quite lovely, but her overextended fantasy / musical number somewhere in the middle definitely slows the movie down a lot), and maybe not enough of the real Copa Girls themselves, who are simply wonderful: beautiful, radiant and personable. But my absolute favorite moment in this film is a very small one, where Groucho and his then-wife (playing the "Cigarette Girl") exchange eyebrow raises! On the whole, "Copacabana" is about on the level of a lesser Marx Brothers movie (like "Go West" or "The Big Store"), and certainly preferable to their worst one, which is probably "Room Service". **1/2 out of 4.

ktcook Groucho are Carmen Miranda are Marvooolussss together. What a great combination and beauty and the beast. The movie has it all, cheesey musicals, goofy love scenes and Groucho's one liners. Buy it if you are a Groucho fan.

J.R.-8 If you love Groucho Marx or love musicals this is the movie for you. Groucho Marx is still the funniest man alive. Groucho Marx is witty as a slippery agent to Carmen Miranda in this movie. I am a fan of anything he does or anything the "Marx Bros." are invovled with. (even though this is a solo act)This movie has it all musical numbers and laughs. The chemistry between Carmen Miranda(Carmen Novarro)and Groucho (Lionel Q.Deveraux) is incredible. I will go into the plot well it has to do with anarchy and misinformation with has been a playing ground of Groucho's for years. I would like to thank Groucho and his brothers for making me laugh when my our life I sometimes don't have much to laugh at. Fellas you were trully are blessed. Thank You. P.S. Mr. Deveraux even brings back an old friend for a song and dance... don't ask you can't afford him.
