MPMOL is terrific! A fine short subject thrown in. Sell your stock in the Catholic Church. Simplistic criticisms of this complex and varied collection of skits are no service to an informed net.community.

I found this film a great dieappointment. Monty Python films had been getting better and better, from jaberwocky to Life of Brian, but MOF was a definite step back towards the TV shows. There were some good scenes, especially at the beginning, and those with songs, but others were slow, and the restaurant scene was rediculously overdone. It was not a total loss, but not worth much more than the dollar I paid to see it.

I would like to add a little to sdcsvax!logo's review of Meaning of
Life. I thought it was one of the better movies I have seen lately.
It's major flaw was offensive. If you are easily offended or even not
so easily, you probably won't like it. They say sorry at the end of the
movie for being discusting at times but they said they needed to be or
no one would go see it. They needed their "R" rating to sell the picture.
Anyway, being a British humor fan, I liked it alot but I didn't think it
was quite as funny as the Holy Grail.
