Film 327/365, Day 345/365 – Time Bandits

Surreal fantasy adventure with dark humour from the minds of Michael Palin and Terry Gilliam.  This is quite unlike anything that gets made now which is a real shame because this is a very entertaining film.  It is however quite likely to split opinions, much like Monty Python, you either get it or you don’t.

Synopsis:  A young boy gets caught up with a group of time travelling dwarves who are determined to steal treasure throughout history.  They are using a map they stole from their employer, the Supreme Being, to navigate through time.  Evil however also would like to get its hands on the map!
