A very funny satire from the 'flying circus' that is Monty Python. Though these humorous collections don't maintain any type of solid plot, it does a good job in putting a strong smile on my face. Lots of fun for the Monty Python fan, this first Python film deserves some sort of Comedic recognition. I enjoyed it, though it isn't clean cut with a pretty bow wrapped around, it makes it's mark with strong laughter and cringeworthy material for the dark comedy die-hards. FINAL SCORE :::: 73% ::::

"And Now For Something Completely Different"
Yojimbo - wrote on 01/07/2012
And Now For Something Completely different is a compilation from the Monty Python team comprised of some of the funniest moments from their early work and as such doesn't really feel like a "movie". But the sketches are genuine classics as Python pretty much invented the non sequitur and introduced the comedy of the absurdly surreal to the mainstream. The biggest problem of course is the sheer familiarity of it all but the talent involved are amongst the best in the business and it's amazing how a skit that I know, and have known for the better part of two decades, word for word can still make me laugh. Some of the jokes have fared better than others over time, but the highlights are true all-time comedy classics and it's worth it for Terry Gilliam's desecrations of artistic masterpieces …
