Very silly but lots of fun!

Rating: 9/10 (11 April 2011)

This film where the Monty Python team take multiple roles to bring the legend of King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table to the screen is as hilarious as one would expect; it is packed with quotable lines and memorable scenes once watched nobody will forget the Black Knight who won't let a mere flesh wound stop him fighting! The Knights who say Ni or the killer rabbit! The brave knights will encounter these threats and many more as they undertake a god-given quest to find the Holy Grail.
The Monty Python team do a great job here; how they managed to avoid laughing in every scene they shot I don't know; as the knights 'ride' across the land no actual horses of course they just bang two coconut halves together! There are some fight scenes that might disturb the squeamish but the blood spurts are almost cartoonish so shouldn't bother most viewers; I watched it with my twelve year old nephew and he just laughed! If you haven't watched this yet you really should to find out what all the fuss is about and if you have seen it watch it again as it stands repeat viewings although I'm sure most people who have seen it will know that already.
