"This is the only live-action movie I've seen that literally looks like pages out of Heavy Metal magazine (...) Rating: ★★★ (out of 4)" | ||||
"A cheerfully irreverent lark (...) The physical production is elaborate and lush, and the special effects are marvelously well done" | ||||
"When you can count the laughs in a comedy on the fingers of one hand, it isn't so funny." | ||||
"Gilliam fills the screen with bizarre images, and directs with a breathless ingenuity." |
