Review of Time Bandits (1981) by Matthew D — 23 Mar 2017
Time Bandits is such a frustrating movie and another proof that I strongly dislike Terry Gilliam's style. It does have some interesting scenes and imagery and you can't deny its originality, but it is tonally inconsistent as it tries to be both a family fantasy flick and an odd, bizarre comedy and it just never succeeds in either of those areas as the humor is overly Pythonian and the fantasy elements and characters are silly.
