Really enjoyed this one! Exciting to see where Terry started before making the films he's known for. David Warner was the standout for me. And Sean Connery was...well, Sean Connery.

One of the funniest endings I've ever seen.

i fell asleep several times and opted not to rewind

a hilarious trip through time. sort of a mix between monty python's humor but brazil's bizarreness. at times it was slow but all together it was a fun adventure movie, though a bit long, and very hilarious. this was a great terry gilliam film and makes me want to watch brazil again soon! I recommend anyone who loves adventure/history to watch this

The definition of imagination let run wild. Gilliams' first non python feature is a piece of inspired lunacy that often gets away from itself. Unlike Brazil or Munchausen it is not a film that has grown better with age but feels more and more like an unrealized vision. Sure there's some inspired moments especially those with David Warner and Ralph Richardson but really just is a foreshadowing of things to come.

This movie is just fun. Disgruntled employess embezzling the fruits of their labor. Creation.

i can relate to what you're saying. i gave it a couple more stars because i think it was well made for what it is, but ultimately it didn't appeal to me all that much. watching it with brazil expectations is a guaranteed let down.

You just have to love Ian Holm's portrayal of Napoleon and the way he gets ransacked by the dwarves.

What happens to Kevin after his parents die in the end?

When I watched it over and over again in my single-digit youth, this movie was to shape so much of my taste in film. Gilliam's best, ever.

This film scared the hell out of me when I saw it as a kid, and I've been in love with it ever since. Subversive child's play with great cameos. The practical effects and animation are a breath of fresh air in a time when CGI is mistaken for actual filmmaking.

A somewhat flawed film, but its creativity and imagination far outweigh any minor issues. Incredibly original, wild and whimsical an absolute blast from beginning to end. Extremely Gilliamesque, but not as unfocused as some of his other works, 'Time Bandits' is a perfect example of what a children's film should be. Imaginative, scary, funny and adventurous. Thank God for Terry Gilliam.
