Premise
A pair of medieval con-artists are forced to - oh screw it. It's a Terry Gilliam movie about fairy tales.
Who should watch
Terry Gilliam fans. Jonathan Pryce fans.
Thoughts
It was what I expected: quirky, weird, scary, trippy. But in comparison to other Terry Gilliam films I've seen, this was the tamest. It just didn't seem to be quirky, weird, scary or trippy enough. If you're in the mood for something like this, I recommend 'Sleepy Hollow'.
If there is a reason to watch, it’s the characters Cavaldi and Deletombe (played by the great Jonathan Pryce). Despite the hunk presence of Heath Ledger and Matt Damon, these character actors steal every scene.
What I would change
It's kind of hard to fix a Terry Gilliam movie...
