Info

Brian Cohen is an average young Jewish man, but through a series of ridiculous events, he gains a reputation as the Messiah. When he's not dodging his followers or being scolded by his shrill mother, the hapless Brian has to contend with the pompous Pontius Pilate and acronym-obsessed members of a separatist movement. Rife with Monty Python's signature absurdity, the tale finds Brian's life paralleling Biblical lore, albeit with many more laughs.

Life of Brian Audience Reviews

Platicsco Good story, Not enough for a whole film
StyleSk8r At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.
filippaberry84 I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.
Staci Frederick Blistering performances.
zafer_avran The copyrighted film of the fool of mankind. I'm sorry I did not watch that time. A very successful comedy film. Even the best movies were on my list. He's gonna be out after Ben-Hur. In general, it is not the fact that the players are playing more than one character on behalf of the performance that has been shown successful performance. I believe that the world of faith and prophecy can not be criticized in a better and more enjoyable way.
topmandrake It's been decades since the last's viewing of The Life of Brian, and it is just as funny today. Is also interesting to think that this may be more socially relevant today than I was in 1979!
Osmosis Iron The Divine Comedy! Christianity has never been funnier. Priceless ending!! Can't really decide between this and the "Holy Grail" as the funniest film ever made.
Efe Yenibayrak For me, first half of the movie is a 10 star comedy. However, second half of the movie was so cringy that i had a really hard time finishing the movie.small spoilers here:The storyline is a bit misleading though, Brian being mistaken for Mesiah as an adult has no relation with being born in the next-door of the original one. Personally, i thought it did and that got me watching the film in the first place.
