As a 5-year old kid, this movie was absolutely fascinating to me. Also, that ending... Kid says "Don't touch it, it's Evil." And the first thing the parents do, *TOUCH*. It's just absolutely nuts.

Terry Gilliam's modus operandi for this movie was to make a kid's movie FOR kids: no morals, no hidden messages, just have absolute hilarious chaos going on. And in the original DVD commentary for the film, he points out that the ending is one that parents kind of freak out about, but little kids think is just hilarious.

I watched it as a kid also and it did not feel like a "kids' movie. I guess that was part of the attraction to me. It felt very adult. Especially the ending. The ending gave me anxiety about being abandoned. His parents were gone and he was alone. lol I quickly learned the difference between darker. British/European endings verses happy endings of American movies. 😁

This is part of what is considered the Gilliam trilogy. * Time Bandits - Childhood * Brazil - Adulthood * Baron Munchausen - Golden Years Gilliam became known for fantastical movies and so he made "The Fisher King" and got carried away with the fiery knight.

The legos in the set design at the end indicates this is all Kevin playing with toys. A boy playing with his toys often ends in a big battle, so Elliot brings all his toys - cowboys, space ship, etc - to fight evil.

I can't even count the amount of times I watched this on cable as a little kid! I was obsessed with trying to draw/create my own map with all the accurate portals, and I loved the George Harrison song at the end ("Dream Away"). Weirdly enough, I wasn't even phased by the "dark-ish" ending, despite Kevin effectively becoming an orphan. You momentarily think that the whole adventure was in Kevin's head, but Gilliam subverts that by including the polaroids, etc. Such a unique, iconic film. So glad you decided to check this one out!

I feel you on this. When I was 8 we stayed at my Grandma's house in like 1982 for a summer and she had the most wonderful invention for tv watchers at the time - premium cable [that she got for free 'cos her son was selling pot to the cable installer -(never paid a bill for like 20 years!]. It came on every day that summer on HBO in the early afternoon and so I literally watched it 5-6 days a week for a season. The movie, the characters, and their antics consumed our play and fantasy worlds that entire summer and both started and fostered my love of history and zaniness. Thank you, thank you, thank you Terry Gilliam and crew for being such an important part of my childhood!

Ahhhhhhhh, excuse me for saying so, but the giant in THIS flick makes quite a bit more sense than the aliens in Life of Brian. Firstly, THIS one's already FANTASY to start with. It's not like something from a sci fi flick making an appearance in a Biblical epic. Second, THAT scene took place in what was supposed to be a "Time of Legends" (the characters even said that), hence the reason for the giant and the ogre and so forth during THAT particular segment.

I had a reoccurring nightmare for years that only stopped after I rewatched this movie at 19 and realized that the dream was the scene at the beginning where the room pushes out into a long dark hallway. I remember being chased down the hall and ending up in a forest. My dad was a huge Monty Python nerd, so I must have seen Time Bandits when I was super young.

Regarding George Harrison, I have always heard that it was Life Of Brian that was financed by George Harrison because he wanted to see it made after reading the script. This led to the creation of Handmade Films. A short excerpt from the Wikipedia article about Handmade Films: When the original financiers of Brian, EMI Films, pulled out of the project less than a week before filming was to commence, the creators had to find other financing.[3][4] Harrison, a friend and fan of the Pythons, mortgaged his home in order to finance the feature.[1] Eric Idle of the Pythons later called it "the most anybody's ever paid for a cinema ticket in history".[5] Life of Brian grossed $21 million at the box office in the US.[2

I can't imagine the Supreme Being as anyone else but Sir Ralph (up there with Lawrence Olivier as a Shakespearean actor) his bumbling rather uncertain performance was perfect for a representation of 'God'. Great movie, great reaction, great fun. Looking forward to more reactions - I highly recommend the wonderfully bizarre 'Withnail & I'

Time Bandits was directed by the great Terry Gilliam! I am sure a lot of people will tell you to watch his movie Brazil next, but I will recommend some other titles instead: *Jabberwocky* (1977) set in a very filthy Middle Ages, *The Adventures of Baron Munchausen* (1988) even wilder than Time Bandits, *The Fisher King* (1991) a very dark rom-com, and *12 Monkeys* (1995) a time-travel thriller, arguably his last great film. (12 Monkeys was later remade as a surprisingly good TV show on Syfy.)

Brazil is next in the Trilogy of Imagination. But I recommend reading Nineteen Eighty-Four, first.

I saw it in the theater when I was 6 or 7. To answer your question about how well it did, the movie did very well. It was a relatively low budget movie (5 million) and made approximately 30 million in the box office. I think it did well because it pulls off the shrek gambit. I definitely didn’t catch all the stuff about consumerism and the reasons for evil, etc., but I did enjoy watching a movie with funny dwarfs and a cool kid having adventures through time. Add in a cool George Harrison song at the end and the boomers are going to have fun with it too.

Loved this film when it first came out. Sat in the front row with my 4yr-old son, but the film was just too intense for him. When that horse and rider crashed out of the wardrobe, he jumped under his coat. Poor thing spent most of the film under the coat. The film was fun enough, but the reaction was a whole extra level! So enjoyed this!!! ❣💥 You should move on to "The Adventures of Baron Munchausen" (1988), another extravaganza film with big name actors, written and directed by Terry Gilliam. That would be a wonderful reaction film! Seasonal reaction suggestion: "Bell, Book and Candle" (1958) Big name actors, Christmas, witchcraft, Beatniks, publishing, New York City, and a cat named Pyewacket. This is my favorite Christmas movie!

I saw this in the theater as a child. Quite an experience. Weird, dark ending followed by catchy, upbeat George Harrison tune as we left. I had so many questions.

Another one of Terry Gilliam's that I highly recommend is "The Adventures of Baron Munchausen". Amazing cast, great script.

As I heard it, the script called for someone with a build like Sean Connery. When he showed up, he said (insert Connery accent) "I assume I have the proper build for the role."

For those of us in Britain of a certain age, I remember David Rappapport as Shades in Tiswas. A tragic but amazing guy.

He starred in a TV series here in the states called The Wizard around 1987 produced by the same two guys who went on to produce the iconic series Baywatch just a few years later.

Deeper meaning? Nope. I really liked Monte Python and really enjoyed this. I wasn't a kid when I saw it. That would have made it perfect. Good reaction. Thanks.

Hi you two, first time watcher of one of my favourite films starring my favourite actor, David Warner. Great watch! I'm based in UK near Southend and Mike Edmonds once deejayed at our local golf club when I was about 10, got a signed photo! I'm 55 now and still use the Supreme Beings line, 'yes,well,i am the nice one' to this day! Best wishes!

Saw this as a kid when it first came out. Loved it, frightened by it, and over the years watched the shit out of it.😅

You missed the fact that Kenny Baker (Fidgit) is better known for R2-D2. Also the ogre on the boat played by Peter Vaughn, was Maester Aemon in GoT.
