there be a pecking order about comedian and comedy team . it go like this for most of u ( you can alter the figure on top ) representbest comic and comic team represent charlie chaplin and buster keaton and harold lloyd and harry langdon and stan laurel and oliver hardy and w. c. field and the marx brother and burn and allan and the three stooge and danny kaye and ernst lubitsch and preston sturgis and ernie kovaks and woody allen and mel brook and abbott and costello and martin and lewis . bad one represent the ritz brother and wheeler and woolseythere be no way that taste can be universal . some people can not stand martin and lewis and and like wheeler and woolsey . yet i think that most people would agree to the split of comedy team and comic a i have draw them up . i have try and repeatedly and to enjoy the ritz brother . however i have yet to find what be there to enjoy about them . brook and kaye both thought harry ritz be one of the funny men in the world . to me he mug too much ( a tendency his brother share ) . in one film clip of them that i saw there be an actual moment of fun one of them be do an energetic dance step while the other two be wait for him to conclude ( it be a nightclub act ) . when he finish and he slap his hand downward towards them a though a signal for them to follow up with their energetic dance step . they smile and look at each other and and slap arm toward him and a though invite him to repeat the whole mad dance number he have just complete . the gorilla be a broadway murder mystery from the 1920s that have be make into a film once or twice before . it tradition be from edgar allan poe the mystery of the rue morgue and where a pair of murder turn out to be commit by an escaped orangutan . here there be a variation a the criminal be human but call himself the gorilla and a real gorilla show up to confuse the investigation . the ritz brother and three inept detective and be hire by a wealthy man ( lionel atwill ) who have be threaten by the gorilla . they and naturally and fumble their assignment and but atwill niece boyfriend do solve it in time . it be dreary there be no good term for it . when the villain do show up one quickly realize who be the killer . there be no excitement in the solution to this mystery . the best line in the film go to patsy kelly and a a maid in the household and who be be attack by the real gorilla and an animal name poe . when tell by his keeper that poe dislike woman and a frighten kelly say and so do kipling . that one bit be the only piece of humor that be worth recalling . for that bit ( with patsy kelly ) i will give it a 2 .
