Entertainment Reviews:
However, hardcore Marxists already know that, as Groucho's first solo film appearance, 1947's Copacabana was a once-over-slightly effort that the Master himself dismissed before the cameras even rolled.

A tired little mess.

Film Snobbery
Four Marx Brothers made history, but one Marx cannot make a film.

The result is not so wildly zany as the best Marx brothers collaborations, nor is it designed to be. But it is an unpretentiously entertaining movie.

Product Description:
Groucho plays an agent who books the same nightclub singer at the Copacabana under the two different names--the Brazilian Bombshell and Madamoiselle Fifi. The colorized version doesn't add much.
