Perhaps the funniest movie ever made

Rating: 10/10 (20 January 2004)

What sets this movie apart from many others is the way it combines slap-stick style antics with very clever dialogue. It's the kind of movie that you can watch over and over and never tire of. The plot is the least important part of the whole movie, it is simply the vehicle necessary to deliver some of the greatest comedy lines ever. The ending is a bit disappointing, but considering what you have just watched, you are apt to forgive.
I would encourage you to download a copy of the script and just read it. It is absolutely brilliant! I have always thought it would make a great broadway show and now I hear that it is in the works. I've heard they plan to entitle it "Spamalot". I can't wait to see it!
Many people marvel that two great movies were made in 1939 (Gone with the Wind and Wizard of Oz), but I marvel that two of the best commedies of all time came out in 1974/75... Holy Grail and Young Frankenstein!
