Mostly dead-on and characteristically Pythonesque.

Spotty and fitfully very funny. Lacks the structure of the other Python big screen films.

Com sua irreverência habitual, o Monty Python cria um filme que diverte o espectador com seus enlouquecidos esquetes e seu humor sem concessões.

Strictly for people with dark senses of humor, any Python film should be avoided by anyone that thinks Jay Leno is funny

A zany and outrageous comedy about the wrong-headedness of many serious people.
