An absolute essential to any Python fan and one of the most iconic comedies of the 20th century

Rating: 10/10 (23 April 2018)

My father tells me that he had to travel out of his hometown to see this when it came out because the local church had banned screenings where he was living in 1979.
Monty Pythons life of Brian finds the time to take the piss out of topics as broad and relevant as fanaticism, imperialism, anti-imperialism, linguistics, capital punishment, bureaucracy, astrology, left-wing politics (particularly the partisan inner-turmoil that is often its burden), and manages to pull off one of the most surprisingly cheerful endings in cinema.
Not once does it actively take the piss out of the life or acts of Jesus Christ
Still got banned in many communities and I one of my Christian friends refuses to watch the film to this day.
10/10 would look on the bright side of life again.
