About this product

Product Information

In TIME BANDITS, director Terry Gilliam told a fantastical story filled with heroes and villains seen through the eyes of a small boy. In BRAZIL, Gilliam focused on a fantasy world created by a young man trapped in a totalitarian state. And now, with THE ADVENTURES OF BARON MUNCHAUSEN, Gilliam tells the legend of an old man who has lived a fairy-tale life. In the late 18th century, the Age of Reason has no room for fantasy. In a town besieged by murderous enemies, a traveling company is putting on a stage show about the apocryphal Baron Munchausen, who, with his motley crew of servants, supposedly circled the globe and the universe, following each bizarre adventure with one even more strange and ludicrous. But then a man appears at the theater claiming to be the real Baron, and to prove it, he goes off on one final journey to save the town, chased all along the way by the winged specter of death.Gilliam never met an epic spectacle he didn't like. MUNCHAUSEN is loaded with brilliant set pieces, including spinning heads on the moon and a giant Botticelli clamshell in the bottom of a hellish volcano. Gilliam has assembled a stellar cast, including John Neville as the Baron, Oliver Reed as Vulcan, Jonathan Pryce (BRAZIL), Jack Purvis (Wally in TIME BANDITS), Robin Williams (credited as Ray D. Tutto), Eric Idle (who contributes "The Torturer's Apprentice" with Michael Kamen to the soundtrack), Charles McKeown (LIFE OF BRIAN), a cameo by Sting, and early appearances by Sarah Polley (as young Sally Salt) and Uma Thurman. Gilliam's special effects bonanza is a modern retelling of THE WIZARD OF OZ, a fabulous adventure filled with daring feats, preposterous nonsense, danger galore, and the overall belief that a world without fantasy is a sad world indeed.

  • Most critical review

    Adventures ?

    This the most chaotic, dismal, waste of time, that I have ever watched ! The only redeeming scene is when Uma Thermon comes out of the scallop shell ! All the remainder and previous scenes are confusing, wasteful and boring ! Don't even think about it !

  • Great addition to my collection.

    Great quality, NIB & sealed just like ad stated. But...Ad stated $8.99+ free shiping. I checked my bank and Paypal added a separate charge for what I'm thinking is the tax. Not a good idea, tax should've been added in 1 charge not separately, some banks like mine charge for things like that.

  • Great Movie for all.

    I've been looking for this movie. Should have known to look here first. Best price I found, played great and shipped fast. If you look at nothing but the "sets" on the movie you will see a masterpiece of film. It's also a pretty funny movie with a great story.
