Born from the brilliant minds of Monthy Python's Terry Gilliam and Michael Palin Time Bandits is a British masterstroke in fantasy adventure. When a young boy's wardrobe shapeshifts into the gateway of another world he finds himself embroiled in a series eccentric encounters with legend's most random figures; Napoleon Robin Hood and ancient Greek leader Agamemnon. There backed by an arsenal of guerrilla dwarves he must overcome evil forces quantum leaps in time and 1980s suburban conditioning in order to save history the present and the future. Loaded with astutely... observed rapid-fire humour this critically acclaimed smash-hit remains one of Britain's most-enduring ensemble comedies. Boasting music by George Harrison who co-produced the film alongside writer/director Gilliam it stars Academy Award-winners Sean Connery John Cleese and Jim Broadbent plus co-writer Palin in a classic - and timeless - comic clinic.

Talk about funny. A real shallow view and use of map of the universe. But who wouldn't be tempted just a little bit to go back in time and use it to your advantage? I think that's why this film works so much. You can laugh at how simple and base these greedy little dwarves instincts are. There one scene where they transport onto a luxury liner at the turn of the 20th Century spending some of their loot, smoking cigars and drinking champagne. Then you see that it's actually the Titanic their lapping it up on. Bungling but funny. "Here's to stinking rich"
