Very well executed

Did you people see the same film I saw?

If you're interested in the topic at hand, you should just watch it and judge yourself because the reviews have gone very biased by people that didn't even watch it and just hate (or love) the creator. I liked it, it was well written, narrated, and directed and it was about a topic that interests me.

While it is a pity that the story wasn't told with more visual finesse, this is trivial compared to our real-world problems. It takes a good movie to put that into perspective.

"Monty Python & the Holy Grail in Lego" is a brief animated short film from 2001 long before the recent rise in popularity of Lego animation, so you could say that directors Drage and Mines were ahead of their time, even if they never managed to make it big in the last 15 years and this is still a contender for their most known career effort. Apart from the fact that this film here runs for 90 seconds only, slightly over to be exact, and that I think it is really impossible to fit the full feature it parodies into this minimal runtime, I also have some personal issues with it. I have never been big on Lego animation style or Monty Python, so my personal bias may have a bit to do with how I rate this and actually taking that into account, the rating is maybe even higher than expected as I stated in the title of my review too. If you like Monty Python and Lego animation more than I do, then maybe you will quite enjoy this one. Like Terry Gilliam apparently did. As with the real M.P. stuff, there is lots of singing here too. So yeah, I'd only recommend it to those who really love The Holy Grail, the film this spoofs. If you don't, then skip it.

Monty Python and the Holy Grail is a film enjoyed by many. It's British humor may be confusing to some Americans, but to some Americans like myself, I understand and I'm amused at the witty jokes that are in this film. While Monty Python's other films may be the center of parodies, there is only one parody that I know of that I found in Monty Python and the Holy Grail's Special Edition two disc set. This so called parody might actually just be a self parody from the creators. What am I talking about? Look in the title. The parody is completely done in Legos. Might have taken only a day to create because it's a two minute lego video.In this short video, characters made of legos sing the song "Camelot". Of course, it's done in Legos. The title wouldn't lie, would it? It's from a big motion picture studio! Anyways, I thought this was pretty interesting. It wasn't very amusing. It wasn't very entertaining, either. I didn't really care for this video. The reason for it's rather large or high score on IMDb is for the reason of it's cleverness. It's just really clever to do something that stupid but unusually good.Although, you may find this all over the Internet, mostly for it's short length and the technology of DVD ripping, you can do any way to watch this video. But, I wouldn't recommend it. It's just a really pointless video to watch.

This is a simple but fun Lego rendition of Monty Python. It's very funny throughout, with all the original footage (albeit the dead parrot scene) from the film in Lego. Seeing the Pythons as minifig Knights complete with plastic shields and helmets was hilarious, especially with the fixed expressions on their little yellow faces! All the original voice work and singing from the movie is there as well, with nothing edited. It's a shame Lego hasn't made more of these funny little film parodies, as they are of very high quality and it seems no expense has been spared. How about a Lego Lord of the Rings, or a Lego Shawshank Redemption? Here's hoping!

Well here is a film that was included on the Monty Python and the Holy Grail DVD. It was made with lego and some sort of animation kit thing available from lego.com. I had seen this little video online before I saw it on the dvd but it's extra fun on the dvd I guess just because I can see it on my large TV in sharp clarity.It's a lego animation of the approach to Camelot, and the following song, and then King Arthur's final thoughts of Camelot. I made a few lego animations when I was a child with my dad's video camera and lego people, I wish I had my films recognized! Ah well, at least one lego video has made it to international dvd release. Heh heh heh. Maybe more will follow! Hurrah at the thought of that!I like it. It's pure fun.
