The Pythons' finest

Rating: Null/10 (6 November 2001)

Whilst I like Life Of Brian, it looks like they had a big budget for it, and much of the humour is "orthodox". Here, much is made out of a "cast of dozens", where they had to make do with empty coconut shells for horses, and running gags about swallows. But the overall package is brilliantly surreal: the deadly rabbit, Tim the Enchanter, the Knights who say "Ni", and that ending. I am sorry that some feel short changed with the film's ending. I thought it was perfect, and defies all explanation and logic!
