Always look on the I don't get this Monty Python humour

Rating: 5/10 (30 April 2020)

One of the most over rated comedy films of all times. I just don't get the humour of the Monty Python comedy troupe.
I have given the film two viewings but still haven't changed my view of it. In Life Of Brian the early life of Jesus or rather the baby from the stable next door, Brian of Nazarath (Graham Chapman) being the subject. Although it has very little Jesus in it and is not a satire on him or any religious faction. Some people call it 'British' humour. Well I'm as British as they come and I don't get it. All I get is several performers playing several characters in a series of supposedly comic sketches loosely put together in a film.
I suppose some working knowledge of biblical stories might have helped a little although I see little reference to religion more the Roman Empire province of Judea. It was more interesting to see that the late Beatle member George Harrison was Executive Producer and his film company HandMade Films helped release the film.
HandMade were behind some of the more controversial films of the period such as this and The Long Good Friday.
