What Parents Need to Know
About Monty Python's And Now for Something Completely Different
Parents need to know that this movie is a collection of irreverent comedy sketches performed by British comedy troupe Monty Python. Sex and sexual identities are often major components in the sketches -- a marriage counselor hitting on a wife seeking help, a cross-dressing lumberjack, a milkman greeted at the door by a woman in a negligee. However, there's no nudity (aside from a cartoon depiction of a Venus statue) or graphic depiction of sex. Violence is repeatedly used for comic effect, and no real consequences are ever shown -- nor would they mean much in the context of a comedy sketch. Drinking of alcohol is a minor component of a few sketches, and the language is quite mild.

Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about the plethora of topics raised in the skits, including gays in the military, American intervention in world politics, juvenile delinquency, and many others. Parents could discuss how these comedic sketches are often making a serious point about culture or society. For instance, why is it funny for a male lumberjack to want to dress as a woman? Or what is the piece about violent "grannies" attacking young men really commenting on?

Great movie, but might be embarassing to watch with others.
This is hilarious and genious. The way they tie the skits together into one long movie. I love it. 13+
- I rate this title iffy for age 2 and give it
A bunch of the best sketches from the first two seasons of "Flying Circus" tied together into a movie. The re-filmed sketches usually aren't as good as the studio versions (with a few exceptions, like "Dirty Fork"), but it's a very funny film nonetheless. 13+
