Über diesen Film

In this fantastic voyage through time and space from Terry Gilliam, a boy named Kevin (Craig Warnock) escapes his gadget-obsessed parents to join a band of time-traveling dwarfs. Armed with a map stolen from the Supreme Being (Ralph Richardson), they plunder treasure from Napoleon (Ian Holm) and Agamemnon (Sean Connery)—but the Evil Genius (David Warner) is watching their every move. Featuring a darkly playful script by Gilliam and his Monty Python cohort Michael Palin (who also appears in the film), Time Bandits is at once a giddy fairy tale, a revisionist history lesson, and a satire of technology gone awry.

Bewertungen und Rezensionen

I have no idea why this is listed as a children's movie. It is an adult movie by any standard but me and my kids love it. It is one of my favorite movies of all time. Clever, strange and nuanced.

I wish this much care went into modern movies. The amount of attention to detail and over the top set scenery is amazing. This all before cgi. The film is one of a series by the director. Baron Munchausen & Brazil are MUSR SEES. Brilliant movie!

Fantastic adventure film. If you don't thoroughly enjoy this movie then you clearly need to work on your sense of humor because it's broken!
