History is turned on its comic head when, in 10th century England, King Arthur travels the countryside to find knights who will join him at the Round Table in Camelot. Gathering up the men is a tale in itself but after a bit of a party at Camelot, many decide to leave only to be stopped by God who sends them on a quest: to find the Holy Grail. After a series of individual adventures, the knights are reunited but must face a wizard named Tim, killer rabbits and lessons in the use of holy hand grenades. Their quest comes to an end however when the police intervene - just what you would expect in a Monty Python movie.Written by

All the credits are at the beginning. There are no credits at the end. The screen goes black after the movie ends with the depiction of the end of the physical film reel, then organ music is played over the black screen for about 4 minutes before the movie finally ends. See more »
Alternate Versions
For the 5.1 Surround Sound remix found on the Special Edition DVD and Blu-ray releases, the narration during the Book of the Film segments has been re-dubbed (or an alternate take is used) by Michael Palin. Along with that sound effects were also replaced like explosions and sword clinking sounds. Flipping between the remastered audio and the original mono track reveals a significant difference in the performance. See more »
In the Realm of King Arthur, the Monty Python team set out on a quest to recruit the best Knights in the kingdom and find the Holy Grail.
This is Classic Python Mayhem, where we encounter Killer rabbits, Knights who go Nee! and Horny Nuns who lure the unsuspecting in with there Grail Shaped Beacon.
The Cast all give Typically Hilarious Performances, bringing another must see to the Python Loving Audience.
If You Like Monty Python, you'll love it, if you don't then stay away.
If you've never seen Monty Python before then give it a try, yes it's dated but its still great fun.
9/10
