New Times (L.A.) -
Awesome! Bravura! Captivating! Dazzling!

Christian Science Monitor -
Gilliam's first solo flight as a director is more notable for its inspired visual ideas than for the frequency of its laughs, but Python devotees will have fun.

New York Daily News -
Gilliam's first fully equipped playpen and if he musses it up -- I mean, really musses it up --well, prodigies will be prodigies.

|
Village Voice -
The film itself is thinly conceived, except in the area of bodily misfunction. It plays like the murky B side to the immortal Gilliam-Jones epic "Monty Python and the Holy Grail."

Variety -
Long on jabber but short on yocks.
