The Monty Python team are at it again in their second movie. This time we follow King Arthur and his knights in their search for the Holy Grail. This isn't your average medieval knights and horses story - for a start, due to a shortage in the kingdom, all the horses have been replaced by servants clopping coconuts together!

---|---|---|---|
United Kingdom | Time Out | "One of the most original, hilarious and visually striking comedies ever made (...) So unnecessarily gorgeous, there are moments where it feels like Tarkovsky with drag and farting." | POS |
United States | Chicago Tribune | "A matchless mixture of witty satire and witless tomfoolery, realized with amazingly rich historical detail and enacted with priceless multiple-role versatility" | POS |
United States | Orlando Sentinel | "The funniest movie of 1975 and probably the silliest movie ever made." | POS |
United Kingdom | Empire | "While Holy Grail falls short of Life Of Brian's comic masterpiece status, it has more than enough killer lines, sight gags and inspired absurdity to qualify as a medieval-on-your-ass laff-riot (...) Rating: ★★★★★ (out of 5)" | POS |
United States | TV Guide | "A zany, hysterically funny, and sometimes brilliant if sometimes sophomoric send-up of every medieval movie ever made" | POS |
