    Dear 90% of modern comedy, You don't entertain me, unfunny pig dogs. Go and boil your bottoms, you sons of a silly person. I blow my nose at you, so-called "comedy," you and all your silly, uninspired friends. I don't want to watch you no more, you empty headed animal…

    Strange women lying in ponds distributing swords is no basis for a system of government. If I went around saying I was an emperor, just because some moistened bint lobbed a scimitar at me, they'd put me away!

    A rabbit killing 5 knights is a thing you can only see in a Monty Python movie.

    yea. i’m not a fan. i feel like i wasted 1.5 hours of my life to something people called great. i understand how some people can find it funny, its just not at ALL for me. the humor and i clash on a way that i’ve never experience. the only redeeming quality was the melodic motif.

    15/10 Most chaotic movie of all time but honestly my favorite because the humor is unmatched. You will not laugh once the first time you watch it, the second time is absolutely hilarious.

    Always amazing. Glad I was able to see it in theatre and on top won prizes. The manager did a trivia quiz before the movie and I won them all.

Neither as sparkling as it is said to be nor as bad as it seems to be at the start. But it's pretty good—thus, as British phenomena go these days, exceptional.
