Monty Python is PURE GENIUS!!

Rating: 10/10 (11 March 2009)

This movie was a true classic. It had me crying with laughter from the opening scene with the dentists, to the moose-obsessed opening credits, and on until the final scene where Arthur is arrested just as he is about to storm the castle of AAARRRRGGGHHH!!! You have no sense of humor if you did not enjoy this film. The cheesy special effects just add to the hilarity, and the circle-talking will get anyone laughing at the pure stupidity of it. ("Are you suggesting coconuts migrate?!") To choose a favorite part would be to massacre my mind searching for one, but I especially liked the French taunters ("I fart in your general direction! Your mother was a hamster and your father smelt of elderberries!"), the Knights who say "NI!", the excuse they gave for getting rid of the Black Monster (The cartoonist died of a heart attack), and the death bridge ("WHAT... is your favorite color?") The coconuts as horses were particularly dumb but funny, as well as the Communistic peasants, the Black Knight ("It's just a flesh wound!"), the killer rabbit, Sir Robin's minstrals, the Castle Anthrax, Lancelot's massacre of the wedding guests, and the endless debates over the flight patterns of European versus African swallows. I quote this movie all the time, more than Ferris Bueller even, and my friends and I constantly come up to each other saying "Ni!" and demanding shrubberies. Ten out of ten for this one!!
