Rating: - Never mind them: Time Bandits is a GREAT film!
I had a strong reaction to people's negative comments about this movie... I must admit, when I saw the movie in the theater, I can remember it being much more fast-paced then when I saw it for the second time on dvd in the 2000s...I also remember it being funnier...And I suppose the special effects are not up to modern standards... But to call Time Bandits "dated, dumb, and dull," as one reviewer wrote, is in my opinion a great injustice to a great movie.
People have to realize- Time ... Read More
Rating: - Terry Gilliam--Once Again At His BEST!
Terry Gilliam's works are always magically a bit odd and off center, and keep the viewer mystified and off balance, and in the end...it all works out. Somehow.

Rating: - Does NOT Stand the Test of Time

The whole family loves British comedy, and we were really looking forward to this. Unfortunately, TIME BANDITS has not held up well over the years. We all sat there a bit glassy-eyed and slack-jawed, waiting for the laughs.
For some reason that I cannot quite my finger on, this film just isn't funny ... Read More
Rating: - Pure Chaos
Terry Gilliam movies are a mixed bag, but rest assured they are always going to be surreal. The silly premise of a band of international thieves stealing a map from the Supreme Being and running amuck with comic escapades involving historical figures is wonderfully goofy gold mine to work with. Unfortunately, many of the scenes are just not that funny. Napolean's obsession with short people was just obvious and was pretty dull to watch. The scenes involving ancient Greece, outside of a great festival ... Read More
Rating: - Return the map. Bring back what you have stolen from me!!
Chalk another one up that many people laugh at me when I mention this movie. What is funny was my father who couldn't stand this movie every time I was watching it and I had to turn the channel. After a few hundred times, he gave in, and likes it now.
Basically, a band of dwarves work for the "supreme being." They "borrowed" a map that can lead them to time portals anywhere. Little did Randall who was the leader of this group realize that the Supreme Being also created evil who was played by ... Read More
