Funny movie, great for party conversation...er, impersonations

Rating: 10/10 (15 January 2001)

I rolled when I watched this movie. I thought they meant it to end like it did (of course, most of us know that it ended the way it did because they ran out of money and needed easy and quick closure). I remains to this day one of the funniest movies I have ever seen and have wanted to see over and over again. And if you are in college and have never seen it, expect strange looks from your inability to quote lines from the movie (a little cheat for you, if it comes up in discussion and you want to add something in, just say, "Ni!" pronounced nee). You know how I really realized how cool this film was? I studied in the Loire region (in France) my sophomore year of college. One of our earlier group excursions was to a medieval castle called Chinon. As we climbed up the tower and reached the lookout point someone from my group whispered, "Fetchez la vache!" From that point until we left that part of the castle we were quoting the French people ("Why else would I have the crazy accent?") from the movie. That's cool.
