5.0 out of 5 stars Sit on my face, 12 Nov 2009
By Mr. C. J. Iredale "juxtapose" (London Town) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Monty Python - Almost The Truth - The Lawyer's Cut [DVD] [2009] (DVD)
I can't work out why no one has reviewed this; I often look to Amazon's review for guidance, as the reviews are generated by ordinary people rather than some bloated ove paid journo. Anyway, as of now, there have been no reviews. Anyway, I put my money out and picked this up. Waht is it? A quite brilliant massive documentary, a kind of Python Beatles Anthology, with 7 hours of interviews, clips, thoughts etc. I can recommend it wholeheartedly, despite having Russell Brand's leering grin in it. In depth interviews with Palin, Jones, Cleese, CHapman and Idle, and clips of Chapman, really covering the story from their conception, through the programme's conception through it's halcyon days, the height of Brian and where they are now. Wonderful and original stuff. Thinking of buying it? Go for it, it is (should this be your thing) quite quite wonderful. Thanks to the world of Python; it has made my life a richer and more slightly off at an angle experience.

3.0 out of 5 stars disappointing, 9 Jan 2010
This review is from: Monty Python - Almost The Truth - The Lawyer's Cut [DVD] [2009] (DVD)
I would've preferred more in the way of background info/insight from the Pythons themselves and less in the way of "Oh my gosh they were AMAZING" type reminiscence from the likes of Phil Jupitus et al. They could've really taken it as read that anyone watching it already thought the Pythons were great, and gone beyond that. Still worth watching though

3.0 out of 5 stars good but not entirely new., 8 Dec 2009
By T. middleton - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Monty Python - Almost The Truth - The Lawyer's Cut [DVD] [2009] (DVD)
I bought this thinking that it would be something new but as a fan of python there was a lot of content that i had already seen either as dvd extras on the films or on TV, is still worth a watch if you are into the pythons, it's a lot of money for what is essentially extras and interviews cut together though.
