It's around 90 A.D. and chain mail is "in". Through a tale of comedy like no other, we see the adventure that the Knights of the Round Table and how they try to obtain the Holy Grail. They're lead by King Arthur, a knight who is not as brave as he might seem. What makes this movie so popular among fans is the structure that has become a style of historical comedy where all of the characters are the exact same as they are depicted in this legend, but they come across obstacles that are wacky and definitely out of left field. This skeleton earned its muscles and skin and other anatomical terms that aren't coming to mind because it's a weekend through its accuracy of the time it takes place in, which this movie nailed in my opinion. They then face off against a wizard and rabbits for some reason before getting interrupted by some police. Apparently this is a reoccurring motif in Monty Python movies and I love it.
This movie was amazing! I was expecting it to be a bit outdated and therefore unfunny, but I was blown away by how many times I laughed. The scene that I remember the best was the witch scene, which I've seen a million times for some reason. The whole movie is so funny and never really seems to lose its momentum much. I feel like the historical accuracy of the movie was pretty great, even though I'm not too sure on that. I definitely like how they took ideas from the time, such as the house of ladies who medically help men, and then making it... a whore house. Sorry mom. The dialogue was something that immediately grabbed my attention, since they talk like medieval Englishmen. Overall, this movie was great and I would definitely watch it again and recommend it to anyone. It's probably gonna be one of those movies I show my kids when they're really young, young enough to not understand anything, but old enough to say "hey, I've seen that before!" Hopefully they won't have any questions because at times this movie is d-i-r-t-y.
