It's Monty Python, you twit. You should own it, and all other available MP titles on Blu-ray. Besides, it's one of only a handful of films I can think of in which a grotesque, morbidly obese man explodes in a shower of vomit. What's not to like?

I've loved this movie since I first saw it. Monty Python takes no prisoners when it comes to humor and satire. If you are offended by other poking fun at your religion or your political dogma, this is not the movie for you. If you are a fan of the old "Flying Circus" television program then this movie will be quite familiar.

Classic Python Gets Blu Treatment

Classic Python finally gets the Blu treatment and does no disappoint. The video transfer is a big step up from the DVD version in 2003. Most all of the extras are there including a new 60 minute feature, The Meaning of Monty Python: 30th Anniversary Reunion. For the video and documentary alone this is worth the couple dollar upgrade from the DVD for true fans.

The Meaning of Life for some reason seems to take a back seat to other Monty Python movies among the masses, and possibly fans also. Maybe it's because it's a collection of shorts attempting to define "the meaning of it all" . I think it's a brilliant movie ..... my favorite MP actually. Give it a chance on Blu-ray, you won't be disappointed!

This movie just gets funnier with age. Highly recommend picking it up. There are some versions if this that come in an 80s sleeve with some fun pop culture tidbits from that era. Haven't dug into the special features yet, but this release is supposed to have a new 60 minute feature included with the remaining cast.

The Meaning of Life?

This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
Monty Python's "The Meaning of Life" is a 1983 musical-sketch comedy film by the Monty Python team. The film is in the format of the troupe's original television series, loosely structured around the various stages of life, from cradle to grave, and is an excellent addition to any Monty Python fan's collection.

Lesser Python, still worth it on Blu-Ray

Monty Python has always been a love/hate relationship for me.
This is not one of the stronger of the Python films, yet for fans this blu-ray is probably worth a purchase. PQ is adequate for a blu-ray, yet it is clear not as much attention was given to this as "Holy Grail" - and that one is absolutely loaded with extra features as well (some of them in 1080p).
This blu-ray is recommended, but only after Monty Python and the Holy Grail, as well as Life of Brian.

A Python Classic

Monty Python has long been a force in British humor and The Meaning Of Life is no exception. Basically a film made up of a series of different stories, loosely tied to the concept of the meaning of life... life, death and what happens in between. Some of the scenes are of course quite funny and a few are a little bit dry as Brit humor can be at times. If your a fan of British humor and Python humor in particular, definitely worth checking out.

Many think that The Holy Grail is the best. Not so, it is this little gem that actually teaches us the meaning of life. Why climb the highest mountain in order to ask some old dude only one question? Watch this movie instead!

Brian is a contemporary of Jesus Christ. Jesus gets all the fame and Brian just gets the short end of the stick. Great Python skits, ending is such an upbeat downer. I can't wait til my sons watch it.

This is the definitive version of the Meaning of Life, more extras, etc. The film itself is not the Python's best, yet contains some remarkably iconic scenes which have stood the test of time. Must have for any Python fan.

Another classic Monty Python film. They unique sense of humor dominates the film and brings lots of laughs. Not everyone will get their humor, but give it a try if you have never seen a Python film before.

This collection of sketches are tied together to give the viewer the Python's take on life from birth to death. Funny and fearless, it's something everyone should see at least once.

If you have ever seen any Monty Python before you should enjoy this. Raunchier then Holy Grail by far and still enjoyable. Hope you can stand to see puke though!
