i have to confess that i have never until today heard of this comedy trio call the ritz brother . they seem to have be a sort of tone down version of the three stooge and and not be much of a stooges fan i actually appreciate their more toned down style of comedy . here and they play a trio of inept detective try to protect a wealthy businessman ( lionel atwill ) who be threaten by a mass murderer know a the gorilla . there be and in fact a real gorilla on the loose ( play by art mile the makeup and while not great and wasn not as bad a some that i have see ) and who can not be the murderer ( because first and gorilla can not write note and and second and he hasn not be on the loose long enough to have commit the murder ) but still he provide plenty of comic relief in his scene with the ritz brother . it a good mystery . be kept guess from the begin about who actually commit the murder and and there no way of really know . bela lugosi be feature a the butler and peter and and he play the role perfectly straight ( in a sense perfectly cast and because i can not picture lugosi do comedy ) and that straight performance add both to the comedy and the mystery ( peter come across a mysterious throughout . ) overall and it not a classic and but it quite enjoyable . it will offer some laugh and keep you guess all at the same time . positive .
