Monty Python and the Holy Grail Movie Reviews
“Represents one of the best and brightest comedies ever to shine from the silver screen.” ReelViews
“MPatHG is a satire that instructs with its informed irreverence, a piece that knows the rules before it breaks them and has shown itself over the course of twenty-six years to be almost as immediate and hilarious as it was upon initial release.” Film Freak Central
“An incredibly silly film of great humor, brilliant design and epic insanity.” Chicago Tribune
“It's still one of the funniest, silliest and all-out strangest films you'll ever see. Now go away, or I shall taunt you a second time.” Bullz-Eye.com
“Monty Python and the Holy Grail is one of the all-time greats. It's incessantly funny and branches out to embrace all sorts of different types of humor, but it all gels remarkably well, whether playing with humor of the most subtle variety or the most ridiculously absurd and nearly incomprehensible sort. The cast is fantastic, every scene proves memorable, and the movie just flies on by…highest recommendation.” Blu-ray.com
“Perhaps the most original comedy – or at least the most ridiculously funny historically semi-accurate comedy spoof – of all time” BluntReview
“Nobody ever placed brilliance in the service of silliness quite the way the Python gang did. Monty Python and the Holy Grail is stuffed with both.” Boston Globe
“the Pythons delivered a classic comedy. Immortal are the Knights who say Ni, the guard who doesn't hiccup but tries to get things straight, the killer bunny rabbit, the extraordinarily rude Frenchman, the Bridge of Death over the Gorge of Eternal Peril, the Black Beast of Aarrgghh, and the three-headed knight. But what is best remembered is the duel fought with the brave Black Knight whose limbs are lopped off one by one. Even then he is still indomitable, and as a still-upright torso he calls after his victor "Come back here… I'll bite your legs off.” 4/5 BBC
“This has to be one of the funniest movies I've ever seen.” Cinema Crazed
“..easily, Monty Python’s best movie, it just never gets old..” MediaMikes.com
“There can be few movies which students quote from more, with learning huge chunks of the script seemingly a rite of passage for generations. However, on sitting down to watch this for the first time in years it is amazing how funny and surprisingly fresh it still is…Overall, this is a silly romp through some of the best legends medieval Britain has to offer, intercut with some fabulously surreal animation from Gilliam..” 4/5 EyeforFilm.co.uk
