One of my all time favorites.

Better Late Then Never

The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.

This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.

Well, you cant call this a movie. A show isn't a movie. But any normal person who likes to laugh must love this! When I first saw it, I laughed till' I choked. I mean, how can anything in comedy be better than the killing combination of John Cleese, Michael Palin and, probably the best of them, Eric Idle. All of the sketches would definitely been in a "Top 100 Best Comedy Scenes Ever" and I admire the actors to remember everything they're supposed to say, for example when Idle are going to a travel agency as Mr Smokestoomuch. If you see this scene, you are lucky if you not laugh yourself to death. It is almost unavoidable. But there are other great moments. In fact, practically everything in this "movie" would belong in a list like the Top 100 I mentioned before. You cant possibly have a favorite. It is impossible to select a favorite in this. Everything is excellent. How do you get such ideas as these?

If you were never lucky enough to see the Monty Python's Flying Circus troupe live onstage, you must see this movie! It includes many classic sketches from their BBC series, such as "The Argument Clinic" and "The Travel Agent Sketch." Plus live renditions of such famous Python songs like "The Lumberjack Song" and "The Bruces' Philosopher Song," and sketches that weren't even on TV! And even shots of the audience will catch your eye! You'll know that Monty Python has achieved cult status when John Cleese comes out shouting "Albatross!", to have audience members reply with "What flavor is it?" The only thing better than seeing this movie, is to have seen the show live!

This is probably the movie which made me watch "life of brian" and "the holy grail". It is brilliant, I first heard of MP after I saw what I consider to be one of the best comedies ever filmed, "a fish called wanda", and I have seen every MP flick since then. In this masterpiece they have picked only the best scenes from their best movies: Silly walk, ..say no more..,silly Olympics, Michealangelo and many more. Even if you only have the slightest sense of humor you still must see this one it might change they way you judge comedies in the future.41/2 out of 4 possible

Most of the sketches and skits are adapted from ones shown on the TV show; there's little that's new, which is mildly disappointing. Good thing, then, that the MP troupe is so adept; familiarity seems to be the point, and allows fans to sit back and enjoy the film.A few parts drag- I wasn't too thrilled with the musical numbers, nor with the History of Slapstick.The most disappointing thing about this movie is a problem only for those who watch it on laserdisc; there are no chapter breaks, and side one ends abruptly -IN THE MIDDLE OF A SCENE-! This is quite disconcerting, and ruins the sketch.
