<em>'A Night in Casablanca'</em> makes for my first Marx Brothers movie! It's one I had a fun time watching, this type of deadpan, slapstick comedy is what tends to get the most amusement out of me and this did just that. I was never belly laughing, but chuckling away I was. Harpo Marx brings the most chuckles, which is all the more impressive given he barely says a word; that's his thing, I'm now learning (I only knew the Marxs by name, not any details). Groucho Marx and Chico Marx are fun too. Sig Ruman is the best of the rest of the cast. It does get a bit repetitive towards the conclusion, though the overall ending itself means that isn't actually an issue when all is said and done.
