It is quite the brightest home-grown comedy in ages.

The effortfully inane action, verbal tomfoolery and in-house 온라인카지노추천 jokes dangle limply from the cinema screen, waiting for a breeze which the directors, Terry Gilliam and Terry Jones, never manage to whistle up.

Much more disciplined than their first film and, therefore, more effective in gags which, however brutal, still manage to smartly crack the funnybone.

There are uninspired lapses... and there are rich and hilarious moments of the absurd. A review cannot help turning into a catalogue of the hits rather than the misses.

Historical burlesque is really far too obvious and too familiar for the usually unpredictable Monty Python team of writers and actors, and they get terribly bogged down in Arthurian England, circa AD 932.

One can at least see the beginnings of something that could grow into a more coherently incoherent whole. The basic order out of which the most laughable anarchy flows could eventually be achieved if the team sticks together.

For my money, I wasn't particularly knocked out by Monty Python and the Holy Grail. For me, it contained about 10 very funny moments and 70 minutes of silence... I guess I prefer Monty Python in chunks, in its original, television revue format.

A blank send-up of the Arthurian legend, a slapstick saga so steadily unfunny that it seems much longer than its 90 minutes running time.

The search for the Holy Grail has never been so outrageously funny, so full of mocking satire and absurd thought associations that trigger a string of wildly unrelated fantasies.

The film is so splendidly witty and riotously entertaining, it may seem petty to bring up certain lapses.

Monty Python and the Holy Grail is, like Mad comics, not certain to please every taste. But its youthful exuberance and its rousing zaniness are hard not to like. As a matter of fact, the sense of fun is dangerously contagious.

Anyone really serious about the idealistic glories of Camelot is well advised to steer clear of Monty Python; anyone interested in some laughs will be pleased by this silly and often clever farce.

The joke meanders and waiting for the punchline makes 90 minutes a long time.

| Original Score: 2.5/4 | Apr 1, 2025

Monty Python and the Holy Grail may well be the Monty Python film for people who so far couldn't care less about Mounty Python films. It most certainly is a film for those already addicted to the British comedy team's multi-faceted sense of humor.

It is an odd melange of satire on everything from epics to masochistic monks and just plain craziness and it works as a movie that is, in its way, just as funny as Young Frankenstein.

The movie industry needs them, though it isn't likely they will inspire too many imitators -- such madness is unique.

What makes this such terrific fun is the careful attention to technical detail and style throughout the picture. The music is excellent, the camerawork quite good, the lighting of forest and swamplands very effective.

Personally I could hardly sit upright from laughing.

Concocted by Britishers associated with BBC television, it makes Woody Allen seem sedately sane by comparison and leaves jokester Neil Simon looking like Joe Sobersides.

It's jolly good fun. Not always good CLEAN fun, but a hilarious romp nonetheless.
