Product: The Fisher King [VHS] (1991)
Rating: 5.0
My biased opinion is that it's the best film ever made
I must admit my heart did a little flip-flop when I found out I could finally own my favorite movie of all time on DVD as of Feb 16th. If you are a new owner od a DVD player and you are still at that "Should I rent it or buy it" phase- I must beg you to consider this film as an addition to your growing library. It is by and far the best film to enrapture the Arthurian legend amid the urban squalor of everyday modern existence, thereby folding royalty among the peasants and turning a well known modern metropolis into a serfdom. Fisher King is brilliantly acted and structured from beginning to end, and makes for a fantastic evening of deep entertainment. Gilliam is a visual genuis and his thoughts and impressions flow onto the screen with carisma and charm unsurpassed in anything he's ever done. Jeff Bridges and Robin Williams give the performances of their careers, and you are not let down by any type of conventional plot. A thoroughly satisfying film. One that belongs in any serious film fanatics' library.
