Time has not diminished this film at all

Rating: Null/10 (23 June 2004)

Thankfully, Life of Brian seems just as good now as the first time I saw it in the eighties. There are plenty of brilliant scenes that only Monty Python could create. A dozen revolutionaries hide in a small room, and about twenty Roman centurions march in to search for them. Unfortunately, they can't find them. Then they come back one more time because they forgot to check somewhere, and they come out with a spoon. Why can't people be that clever anymore?
The wry observations on Jesus Christ and Christianity are not in poor taste, nor are they over done. It's just subtle commentary most of us have thought about anyway, so even religious people should not be too offended by the film.
