COMMUNITY REVIEWS

Strange, but considered a nerdy classic submitted by cherylo on July 24, 2011, 7:39pm It's a strange and nerdy trip. Lots of fun moments, but also puzzling ones. I wouldn't necessarily recommend it unless you are a fan of Terry Gilliam in particular or like the weird and surreal.

time bandits submitted by a2sue on July 25, 2013, 10:44pm john cleese and sean connery? what a combination...

fun for kids--but not the youngest? submitted by hathaway1066 on August 17, 2013, 7:10pm Great way to introduce children to myths and other pieces of history--and has some content they may remember and ponder long after the entertainment of the film has faded, so definitely worth the time spent watching, but has some serious/possibly scary plot elements so not recommended for little or overly sensitive kids--at least, not right before bedtime?
