USA Today - "...Witty....Movie-magical....This is a movie that bludgeons you with dazzle..." -- 3 1/2 out of 4 stars, New York Times - With their remarkable contributions, ''Baron Munchausen'' is full of moments that dazzle, just for the fun of seeing the impossible come to life on the screen., Time Out - it's good, intelligent fun, and occasionally truly surprising., Variety - ...Fantastically imaginative conceptual and visual aspects...

Additional 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. 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 theatre 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.

If like me you love the Time Bandits,Monty Python,Clockwise,A Fish Called Wander,ect then this film is a must.It has a cast any director would give their right arm to work with.I wont spoil the plot by telling you what it is about but from start to finish you will love it.The special effects are not state of the art but they dont have to be as the film is entertaining enough without having to rely on gimmics.The actors/actresses give a performance worthy of acolades such as the Oscars,bafters,golden globe,ect.A film that the children and grown ups can watch together(not easy to find a film that pleases the whole family thease days).I had it on VHS and worn the tape out so I now have it on DVD and there is no arguments as to what to watch when it is put in the DVD player.A family film thats entertaining from start to finish,funny and no sware words.A film you will watch again and again and again ---.Read full review

Best film ever
This is probably my favourite film of all time and it's relatively unknown, shame! It wasn't a big success when it came out and didn't have a very good reputation but it is the only film i really remember from when i was growing up.
