It's a killer! Then, shalt thou count to three. No more. No less. Three shalt be the number thou shalt count, and the number of the counting shall be three. Four shalt thou not count, nor either count thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three.
Five is right out. Once the number three, being the third number, be reached, then, lobbest thou thy Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch towards thy foe, who, being naughty in My sight, shall snuff it.
Full Review. The film goes on working a sense of humor that grows great in the continuous absurdity that always characterized the English work. One of the funniest films ever made Entertainment Weekly. Irish Times. Grail is as funny as a movie can get, but it is also a tough-minded picture -- as outraged about the human propensity for violence as it is outrageous in its attack on that propensity.
TIME Magazine. This classic Monty Python comedy, directed by Pythons Terry Gilliam and Terry Jones, is a hilarious send-up of the grim circumstances of the Middle Ages as told through the story of King Arthur and framed by a modern-day murder investigation.
When the mythical king of the Britons leads his knights on a quest for the Holy Grail, they face a wide array of horrors, including a persistent Black Knight, a three-headed giant, a cadre of shrubbery-challenged knights, the perilous Castle Anthrax, a killer rabbit, a house of virgins, and a handful of rude Frenchmen. In addition to the set pieces, the film also includes the same kind of surreal animation that Gilliam contributed to the television series.
Melding the ridiculous with the sublime, the film quickly inspired a cult following, generated a host of quotes, and even inspired a computer game 20 years after its release.
The numerous songs and hysterical vignettes are sidesplittingly unforgettable. King Arthur and his knights venture into medieval England in search of the elusive Holy Grail in this riotous parody that takes on the Arthurian legend, chivalry, movie epics, and bunny rabbits.
Terry Gilliam's irreverent comedy, featuring the Monty Python troupe in many memorable roles, is very simply one of the funniest films ever made. Graham Chapman, Michael Palin, Terry Jones, John Cleese, Eric Idle, and Gilliam successfully transfer their television success to the big screen, laying the groundwork for a series of hysterical farces that would follow.

The Princess Bride 30th Anniversary Ed. Genres: Comedy Movies. One of the funniest films ever made arrives on a two-disc special edition that you must own. By Jeremy Conrad Updated: 13 Dec am. The Python troupe is made up of some of the best comedic minds to ever grace the face of Earth. Columbia Tri Star has previously released the classic on a pretty featureless DVD, but now they have revisited it while reviving many of the features from the Criterion LaserDisc and have delivered a two-disc set that is a must have for any fan of the film or anyone who wants a night of side-splitting laughter.
The Movie If you haven't seen this film, what the hell is wrong with you? Go out and watch it right now! You don't even need to read the rest of this review. This is easily one of the funniest films ever made and is the benchmark to which I judge every comedy. Everyone who thinks that they enjoy a good comedy should be required to view this movie before saying that the latest cookie cutter summer comedy duo team-up is "funny". Everything from the comedic timing and jokes are absolutely perfect.
Add in a setting that is ripe for satire, and you have a comedy that only the Pythons can pull off. Put any other cast in the flick and its doubtful that it would be any better, there is just no replacement for this British comedy troupe. From the crazy opening credits, to the killer white bunny rabbit, there isn't really anything in the film that isn't funny.
This is by far the best of all of the Python movies, and I really doubt that there is anyone out there that would disagree with that. The movie is just filled with so many memorable moments and gags.
Monty Python and the Holy Grail is a complete and total comedy classic and is one of, if not the , best comedies ever made. If you have never seen the film, you owe it to yourself to check it out. If you have a funny bone in your body you'll laugh your ass off and come back for more. Fans of the classic probably just skipped over my gushing words about this classic and probably just wanted to know what I gave it.
Fear not, I am with you in your opinions. As I have repeatedly said, this is one of the best comedies ever put to film, thus it is a 10! Sure, the source material that they have to go on isn't in the greatest shape seeing how cheaply the film was shot, but you can still do a better job with it than the muddy and overall poor picture that the old DVD had.
This time around the image is much cleaner. The print is still in bad shape with many scenes not looking quite up to par, but the majority of it is great. Colors come through fantastically and often its like you're seeing the film for the first time. The film is presented anamorphically at a 1. The Audio The film isn't the loudest thing on the planet, but you have a DD 5.
Most of the audio comes through very clearly, but just don't expect this to blow the doors off your house. Both discs are packed full of Python goodness that you can lock yourself in your house for a weekend and laugh so hard that you won't be able to talk for a week.
Lets look at disc one first, shall we? You get two audio commentaries here.
