Synopsis

5.0 out of 5 stars Why don't they make films like this anymore?, 14 Mar 2006
By Mr. L. Evans "evs05" (Bournemouth, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
One of the most fondly remembered films from my childhood, Time Bandits paints a tale of epic adventure across time and space...with a Gilliam twist. Our hero, a young lad called Kevin encounters a rag tag team of dwarves lead by (the late )David Rappaport, who has managed to steal a map from the Supreme being who has designed the universe. Naturally they are exploiting the 'shortcomings' in the designs to their own ends and ultimately to a magnificent treasure, and naturally, the Supreme being is in hot pursuit for the return of his map.
As they 'weave' through the holes in the universe, they travel to distant times and other worlds, and encounter a host of celebrity cameos, adopting various roles; Ian Holm as Napolean, Sean Connery as a Greek King and the hilariously camp John Cleese as a Pantomime Robin Hood, leading a band of monstrous 'not so merry men', to name but a few of the stars in this fantastically surreal masterpiece, with a 'tongue firmly in cheek' perspective on the nature of reality.

Robin Hood: And you're a robber too. How long have you been a robber?

Wally: Four foot one.

Robin Hood: Good lord! Jolly good. Four foot one? Well that-that-that is-is- a long time, isn't it
