He's not the Messiah, he's a very naughty boy!
By Flaninacupboard from Northamptonshire , 17 Nov 2003[Highly rated reviewer]
There's no two ways to say this. Rent this film now, and when it lands on your doormat take the day off work, invite round anyone you can persuade, crack open a case of your favourite drink and put it on.
The jokes in this film are timeless, from the schoolboy smirking over the name of a great Roman "Biggus Dickus" to the ludicrous situation of a centurion correcting anti-Roman slang (Latin is, afterall, hard to get right). Without touching too much on the well documented blasphemy in the film, its perhaps not one for firm believers in the guy upstairs, unless you find it easy to laugh at yourself as well. For the rest of us however, the rapid and shambolic formation of the strange religious groups surrounding Brian are awfully amusing, as is the unforgettable ending, featuring a rendition of the song Always look on the bright side of death.
Its classic Python gone big budget, a piece of English heritage that should be treasured and passed onto to the younger generation, and its damn funny to boot.- Was this review helpful to you?

FUNNIEST FILM EVER
By RICHARD CHARMAN from KAZAKHSTAN , 13 Oct 2006This is one of the funniest films ever made, the jokes are still funny even when you've watched the film a dozen times, the reason being comic timing from the funniest group of people ever assembled.
this isn't rubbish american comedy that relies on shouting or slapstick for laughs it has a mix of satire, stupidity, great characters and the plain bizarre.
BRILLIANT.- Was this review helpful to you?
