King Arthur, accompanied by his squire, recruits his Knights of the Round Table, including Sir Bedevere the Wise, Sir Lancelot the Brave, Sir Robin the Not-Quite-So-Brave-As-Sir-Lancelot and Sir Galahad the Pure. On the way, Arthur battles the Black Knight who, despite having had all his limbs chopped off, insists he can still fight. They reach Camelot, but Arthur decides not to enter, as "it is a silly place".

Sorry, this movie sucks
Highly Overrated But Still Good
Fresh and Exciting
if their story seems completely bonkers, almost like a feverish work of fiction, you ain't heard nothing yet.
The saga of King Arthur and his knight companions is one the best know mythic cycles around the world. The Arthurian Cycle is for many people the traditional image of the chivalry world, where proud knight would go around the land seeking to defend the righteous, slay some dragons and save beautiful maidens in the name of a good/righteous king. But the most famous quest of this cycle is perhaps also one of the most unknown, as the greatest quest that the Round Table took part was the quest for the Holy Grail, one of the three holy relics of Christianity. Is a serious tale that speaks a lot of bravery, disappointment and mostly about Christian virtue and the worth of a pious life. On this masterpiece of movie, we see a complete new view of this classical world purely with one mentality: being hilarious! From small jokes only understood by fans of the cycle to generic jokes that will make you fall on your behinds laughing. Perhaps one of the most striking features for me is the fact that it was not made by foreigner, but by the greatest British comedian group (Monty Python). They were able to break away from the local lore to a completely new and amazing perspective.
My Personal Rating - 7/10I'm gonna admit this is one of the most hilarious film i have ever watched. some of it's scene are just pure gold and very funny. if you are looking for a Comedy Film with real hilarious scenes not like one of the comedy films of today that had cheap jokes. then this is for you. see i'm hard to make laugh i don't easily laugh of jokes but this film, this film almost had me dying of laughter. it's just an hilarious film and nothing else. i do really recommend anyone to watch this film.Pros:Some Scenes Are Just Pure Gold And Unforgettable.Very Hilarious in a Nonsense WayActing is Very Spot OnRoasting Old Myths in a Hilarious Way Cons:Story is not that Great (But Seriously Who Cares, This is a Comedy Film)Only Had Short Budget Rating On Each AspectStory: 5/10Cinematography: 6.5/10Atmosphere: 5/10Soundtrack: 6/10Acting: 8/10Dialogue: 7.5/10
This movie is so quotable, and just so damn funny. It has stood the test of time and become a genuine classic.Is there a plot? Well the Python team, with Graham Chapman as King Arthur and his valiant (or not so valiant knights in the case of Sir Robin, who defeated the chicken of Bristol) in search of the Holy Grail.So many great sketches here. The Black Knight (You're arm's off, you silly sod!") Castle Anthrax and Castle Swamp, the gorge of Eternal Peril, the French Taunters. It's all here. Graham Chapman is a superb Arthur, trying to make sense of all the madness around him. But they all shine. They are, after all, the Python Team, some of Britain's greatest ever comedians.Come see the lovli lakes....
This movie is hillarious, from the old man being brought to the death wagon because of the plague, but it turns out he doesn't, to a musical number with the knights of camelot, to even a sword battle between king arthur and the black knight, this movie is pretty charming and fun for everyone, for you, for your kid, for your mother, for your father, for your grandfather, for your grandmother, for -GET ON WITH IT
