Advantages: DRUGS !
Disadvantages: none !

Daaaamnnnnn this movie is the best ever! Featuring Johnny Depp, Benicio Del Toro, Tobey Maguire what is directed by Terry Gilliam. A totally junkie movie. When the journalist and his lawyer are going to a motocycle meeting, and the trips on the way and there and after. On the way there, they are going with a cadillac, "they were somewhere around Barstow on the edge of the desert when the drugs began to take hold". This sentence always associates ...
...an auto stopper and they trip him out that much that the poor guy had to run away when they stopped to snort coke... They are smoking joints in the car, eating LSD that's the REAL life!!

When they get in Las Vegas, drugged, totally hallucinating at the reception was a great trip, and the story ... Read review

Advantages: Best Monty Python film ever
Disadvantages: DVD include absolutely no extra features

This was the first Monty Python movie I ever saw, years after my dad told me about the hilarious scene involving Mr. Creosote, and it remains my favourite Monty Python film. However, the DVD is the worst Monty Python DVD I have. ~~~ The Film ~~~ This review is mainly concentrated on the DVD, but I will include this section specifically on the film. The film itself is about life, so goes through stages of life, presented in parts until the meaning ...
...It's also the last Monty Python film, which is definitely unfortunate as they were only getting better and better. I think the main reason this film is my favourite is the fact it does not stay on one person or general topic. It feels quite random as it moves through life, from birth to life in school, and onwards through things such as the 'autumn years' and finally death and a visit to the afterlife. The cast, as usual, are naturally funny, adding ... Read review

Advantages: British humour at its best
Disadvantages: none

...Meaning Of life. The Monty Python team, are up to their usual anarchic antics in this look at life from beginning to end, in a fashion that only Monty Python can. Not so much a movie as The Life of Brian, or The Holy Grail, its more of a series of hilarious sketches, portraying people in everyday life situations, from the moments of conception, (The Sacred Sperm Sketch) is on of the best of the entire film, to a final meeting with the Grim Reaper, ...
...this hilarious last full length Monty Python movie. Laughs abound from the usual team of:- John Cleese, Terry Gilliam, Eric Idle, Terry Jones, Michael Palin and Graham Chapman . All in all a real good piece of British humour at its best. Running time 86 minutes. I've only hired the DVD so this is a film only review. But a quick look on its availability over the internet, shows it is readily available from many outlets at varied prices ... Read review
