Time Out
pressPython successfully lampoon religious attitudes rather than religion itself.
Roger Ebert
pressFunny, in that peculiar British way where jokes are told sideways, with the obvious point and then the delayed zinger.
BBC
pressA beautiful film, a perfect comedy, and a gentle triumph of silliness over pomposity, self-importance, and intolerance.
