Reviews for Monty Python and the Holy Grail

Review - Monty Python and the Holy Grail

There's no way to describe this movie to someone who hasn't seen it. It is simply the stupidest, funniest and most clever movie ever made. I've seen it at least 10 times and discover new jokes every time.

I don't think I've yet to meet a male who doesn't like it. Females seem to split about 50-50.

My favorite part depends on the mood I'm in, but the Camelot song ranks pretty high and so does the scene where Arthur is talking to the two peasants in the field. "Come see the violence inherent in the system!"
