Connor Eyzaguirre
7/10
I've always been a huge fan of Monty Python and this film has its moments, but unfortunately falls short of the sheer hilarity of Holy Grail and Life of Brian. Some of the sketches are hilarious, like "Growth and Learning," which features one of John Cleese's best scenes throughout the Python years. But most of them don't reach the same caliber of the other Python films and sketches and the film ends up being a bunch of strange, surreal short films that don't really match up that well together.

7/10
The Pythons decide to explore the meaning of life and, for the most part, it proves to be quite hilarious. The film is made up of sketches that have only one thing in common, they explore the various stages in one person's life. The Python's prove they still have some humor left in them and come up with some truly funny moments.

Since the movie is a sketch comedy, it does fall victim to some being funnier than others. This is probably the one thing that hurts the film, with some sketches being gut-busting funny and others being a bit dull. Still, for fans of Monty Python, this final film from them proves to be a comedy hit for the most part.
