Lovesusti The Worst Film Ever
ThedevilChoose When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.
Doomtomylo a film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.
KnotStronger This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.
vaskodanchev "Branca,branca,branca - Leon,Leon,Leon...Brancaleone da norcha..."Unforgettable... I have seen this film almost 35 years ago and I cannot forget it,and the acting of Gian Maria Volonte.Unfortunately,nowadays it seems impossible to see this movie again.I searched the web for a photo of Gian Maria and found nothing but 2 or 3 photos.This great actor should have a gallery of photos.I would not hesitate to compare this film to Don Quixode and in my own opinion rate it even higher. According to me this film is a world classic and should be available for everyone to see. Using nowadays technology this should be no problem.
roberto dandi Ok, the italian comedy of the `50s and `60s is one of the best in the world. I say this not only because I am italian but because it`s true. Just rent or buy the movies of directors such as Pietro Germi, Dino Risi, Steno and of course Mario Monicelli. L`Armata Brancaleone is one of the best comedies ever because of the script, the gags, the language (a very funny mix of ancient italian and latin, I don`t know how the translation could work) and the actors, first of all Gassman, the protagonist, that Monicelli `discovered` as a comic character in `I soliti ignoti` (before that Gassman played almost exclusively drama plays). Even the representation of the Middle Age seems to me (a non-expert in history) quite accurate: see for example the prophet who guides the people towards the Crusade (an incredible Gian Maria Volonte`). Another gem of italian comedy, a must-see for everyone.
atc00 I watched this movie as a 12 year old in Brazil, and loved it -- the "branca, branca, branca, leone, leone, leone!" stuck with me all these years... When I saw the Monty Python's Holy Grail I thought it was not as good as good old Brancaleone, but I was never able to watch it again in the US.I'm now 28 and studying medieval romance language literature and would love to watch it again. I understand that L'armata Brancaleone is loosely based on Don Quixote. Does anyone know whether the movie is available in the US?
Sigmund It is difficult to export this movie outside Italy, in particular because much of the amusement lies in the funny language used, a mix of italian dialects and mock middle-age latin. Anyway, it would be yet a good choice for everyone. It may remember Monthy python's 'Holy Grail', as a surrealistic medieval comedy. Only, this is way better. It is no surprise, considering that we have two great authors, a great director, and a group a great actors. And the word 'great' is no exaggeration! If you ever get a chance to see it, don't miss it, because it's unique.
