Timeless enjoyment

Rating: 10/10 (30 January 2009)

Just viewed this fantastic film for the umpteenth time and it is as enjoyable and fresh as it was 30 years ago. This is Monty Python at their best. There are so many sub-plots and stunning one liners. Are those offended brethren annoyed by Brian's denial that he's the Messiah? It rails against the mob, bigots, procrastinators, career politicians - in fact everyone except God (and the Romans naturally!). Imagine how sad Heaven would be if this film were not held in high esteem. This film gives hope to all believers and is the perfect aspirin to dull the pain of the Credit Crunch. Always look on the bright side of life - and whistle! A true masterpiece.
