Time Bandits

Time Bandits Review CFIR

This week, Cult Film in Review is taking a trip through the ages and beyond. The guys are discussing the Terry Gilliam fantasy, Time Bandits. In this episode, Mike talks about the takeaways from this film when he was but a wee lad. What are his thoughts now that he’s seen the film at 58? Will his opinion change? Later, the crew marvels about this movie’s special effects. How can a 1981 film still look this good in 2018? Also, the guys debate over what might be one of the most perplexing questions this film leaves audiences. Was that a boat or a hat? Finally, we talk about this film’s surprise, dark ending. What was Terry Gilliam trying to say with it? Did the parents really deserve their fate?
