Summary: I fart in your general direction...
Review: If you're a Monty Python fan, this movie is the ultimate. If you're not, this movie may seem sacreligious and distasteful. Personally, I think it's hilarious! Scenes to watch for: the "Knights who say Ni", the "Trojan Bunny", and the Black Knight who won't give up... even when he loses both arms and both legs in a duel! This is some classic Monty!!!

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Send a message. Don't buy this disc!
Review: Well, I've just spent the better part of two hours reading up on this disc from many different sources.

BELIEVE what you have heard. This disc is DEFECTIVE. Subtitles do appear on the screen, even when they are turned off.

My copy is going back.

The company has yet to recall the defective discs. So the only logical thing to do is not purchase the movie.

A wonderful film, but this edition is UNACCEPTABLE!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Bread! Apples! Very small rocks!
Review: This was without a doubt the funniest movie I have ever seen. The scene with the witch makes me laugh harder and harder each time. John Cleese make a fantastic performance in this movie, and the dreaded Black Knight seems to be in denial of his plight, which makes you wonder why he's so dreaded. The mention of llamas and sacking people in the opening credits only makes for this to be the most fantastic satire ever created. The only slow part was the castle of hard-up virgins. Otherwise, this would be a great addition to your DVD collection.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: I will say 'NI' if you don't like this movie!
Review: What can be said about one the best comedies in movie's history?

The cast from Monty Python made it their goal to create a movie that is silly as hell, and yet will have you struggling to keep your tears from laughing so hard.

King Arthur (Graham Chapman) and his trust servant Patsy (Terry Gilliam) travel through medieval England. On their way there, they encounter some of the strangest people you'll have ever seen (Including, but not limited to 'The Knights Who Say NI', an invincible Black Knight, a Constitutional Peasant, and a king who was determined to build a castle in a swamp).

While they travel and gather companions to join them in the court of Camelot, they are given a mission by God himself. Arthur must set out and find the Holy Grail.

In itself an easy enough task, but as his knights scatter across the country, they each become entangled in various perils (Imagine Sir Galahad the Pure being trapped in a castle of virgins who are dying to be spanked).

The end is sort of an anti-climax, but the legendary individual scenes more than make up for it. From it come numerous hilarious quotes that are frequently used by fans worldwide.

All in all, a movie that you HAVE to have seen, even if it was just to know how to react when someone tells you to go cut down the mightiest tree in the forest with a herring.

The extras on the DVD are probably worth it just to the fans of the flick, but I have yet to meet a person who saw the movie and didn't like it.

Remember that during this movie, if you're going to be drinking, better swallow it down fast unless you want your fellow-viewers stuck in fluid.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Has Technical Issues
Review: I am downgrading my rating of the Special Edition DVD because of the fact that subtitles switch themselves on at scene changes, seriously disrupting the flow of the film. If Gsuscryst or someone else could just give some links as text - they don't have to be live - to any Sony site which offers exchanges, postage-paid or not, please reply to this review. I have been right through cthe.com looking for an admission of the tech problems - no dice.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Odd, very odd!
Review: This has to be the weirdest movie I have ever seen! It has cocconuts to killer rabbits. Now thats just silly! If you are a person who likes cartoon creatures or just one odd guy, heres your movie!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: One of the funniest movies ever!!!!
Review: From the opening credits this movie gives belly laughs galore.
The ending is a little lame, but it is difficult to end a great classic, so the gang did it in the most unusual way possible.
After watching this movie, I never thought of coconuts and swallows (African or European) again in the same way.
Watch it and enjoy!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Coconuts, swallows and bridges of death
Review: I can't really say anything more about this movie that hasn't been said. But for me personally, my favorite part is when John Cleese finishes his "hideous creature" speech as Tim the Enchanter and Graham Chapman turns and says "What an eccentric performance!"

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: I seek the holy grail!
Review: I absolutly love love love this movie, one of my favourites from the python collection, this new dvd is great if only for the neat extras that are included. The only glitch i find in it however is that subtitles keep poping up during the movie which is a hair distracting, fortunatly i have the first Extra free dvd which was released subtitle free! But really the new extras are fab, the distracting subtitles are not.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: AND NOW....A REVIEW THAT'S COMPLETELY DIFFERENT!
Review: This has to be the worst film ever! Monty Python has to have some of the stupidest sons of...

SORRY ABOUT THE INTERUPTION IN THE REVIEW. THIS REVIEWER HAS BEEN SACKED. But I do have to admit that this film is really full of...

SORRY ABOUT THAT INTERUPTION, FOLKS. THE PERSON THAT SACKED THE FIRST REVIEWER HAS ALSO BEEN SACKED. Well, I must say, this is the funniest Monty Python film ever made. It reminds me of the time me and my family were traveling along Loch Ness in Scotland when all of the sudden we stumbled across this guy in a stupid Dinos...

SORRY AGAIN FOLKS. THE PERSON THAT SACKED THE PERSON WHO SACKED THE FIRST PERSON HAS JUST BEEN SACKED BY MY GOOD FRIEND ANTONIO, WHO WILL FINISH THE REVIEW FOR US.

El Buyo thiso filmo! You'll sureo enjoyo! Grado: A+o,
