It's a busy life in Camelot...

Ah! A shining beacon (yes, a Grail-shaped beacon) of pure comedic genius. Far and away the funniest film I have so far been privileged to see. The problem with most comedies is that, no matter how amusing they may be on the first viewing, on subsequent showings they rapidly pall. Not so with the Holy Grail. I find that I get just as much fun out of anticipating each classic scene as I do out of watching it. I've lost count of the number of times I've seen this movie. If you possess any sense of humour at all you owe it to yourself to see this film at least once before you die. Oh, and the ending is NOT crap. It's perfectly in keeping with what has gone before. And make sure you get a version that retains the cheesy music at the end. Everyone should have to sit through that once. ;)
