What Did I just watch?? Did I take LSD without knowing??

The first thing you need to know about this film is that Terry Gilliam is the director.   Most of his films would be what I consider to be an epic.  They start in one place and you feel as if you've gone on a wild ride (for better or worse) while ending up in a completely different place. If Monty Python, The Fisher King, The Imaginarium of Dr. Pernassus and Brazil had a baby it would be this film.  It quite reminded me of Brazil in that (especially later in the film) it had the feel of a wild and giant production (although I liked this film far better than that film).  There was a dreamy feel to this film that was not unlike that of Pernassus.  There was the question of delusion that was central in Fisher King.  And in Jonathan Pryce's performance I could easily see John Cleese if the film were to have a more comedic slant to it (this is not to say that there wasn't comedy in the film). **EDIT*** It turns out that Cleese was in fact supposed to be in the film when they attempted to make it in 1997. I think what stands out the most in Gilliam's work is just how unique of a story teller he is.  While not all of his films work for me I can always appreciate the ambition that he has in taking on these project.  It always helps to get the kind of stellar performances that were delivered by Pryce and Adam Driver. follow me at https://IHateBadMovies.com or faceook page IHateBadMovies

Sadly not worth the wait.

This movie honestly makes no sense at all. You can barely tell what's real and what's not and it's so random and all over the place. I get the concept of a modern man believing he's Don Quijote. That's an interesting concept but the movie just jumped around randomly and everyone was honestly completely insane.

25 years in the making and yet...we get a great big lumbering mess of a movie. The film might have been better in one of its earlier incarnations, but this, sadly, is a disappointment.
