8/10
German Monthy Python tryout
7 June 2019
I remembered this fondly - because I had watched this as a teenager and I remember laughing a lot. Now I rewatched it, to see if I remembered it correctly. And I still had fun. It did age well, especially if you consider this having hand made effects instead of digital ones. The actors try their best to give the whole thing gravitas. Which is quite something if you consider how silly this is. Some choices worked better back then (Ray Cokes was quite known as MTV talking head), but nothing really takes you out of the movie.

The dialog of this Science Fiction meet Middle Ages is well chosen ad the actors also did a great job. As mentioned great model design and really good sets. A lot of heart, sweat and blood went into this - which is showing on screen. If this hits the spot (everyone has a different view on comedy or what they think is funny), it will really hit the spot!
