Rated 5 out of 5 stars
The ULTIMATE Monty Python disc
40 years later, the 5 surviving original Pythons recreate some of their most memorable skits. Brilliant!
This production features some of the best classic skits of Monty Python being performed by the remaining python members. In addition to the (as of this writing) 5 Pythons and Carol Cleveland, there is a stellar cast of singer/dancers and a couple of very brief guest star appearances by Mike Myers and Eddie Izzard. Be warned, they don't move (or talk) as fast as they used to and you can catch them reading their lines off of either prompters or index cards. However, I would rather have that than the killing of a scene because someone forgot their lines. John Cleese STILL manages to break character, but only because Terry Gilliam got him to break during the Whizzo Chocolate sketch. Don't wait. Get this today.
Interesting title, but considering the troupe, no surprise that fun would be poked at Graham, the missing member. Not exactly the 70's wit and humor, but still classic Python and ANY fan should watch the piece, if not own it. No spoilers about skits performed or not, just a recommendation for fans to watch this. VERY NICE to see the gang still sharp and witty, even in the upper years each of them are.
