Ex-Python Gilliam is one of the great conjurers of cinema, and this film is proof of his ample and unpredictable talent.
December 30, 2014
Gilliam opts for an acerbic and often nasty tone that risks offending the very audience at which it purported to be aimed.
June 24, 2006
Gilliam fills the screen with bizarre images, and directs with a breathless ingenuity.

This is an enterprising project in free-form cinema; it's just not very entertaining.

Amazingly well-produced. The historic locations are jammed with character and detail. This is the only live-action movie I've seen that literally looks like pages out of Heavy Metal magazine.
March 14, 2015
It's a strange and weird and wonderful mix of boy's own adventure, Python-esque humor, and grim irony, all wrapped in tall tales, ancient myths, and historical figures.

When you can count the laughs in a comedy on the fingers of one hand, it isn't so funny.
December 17, 2014
Time Bandits is one of Gilliam's more chaotic films, which is really saying something, but his six time-bandits fill the screen with fractious energy.
August 30, 2004
A cheerfully irreverent lark -- part fairy tale, part science fiction and part comedy.
December 16, 2014
As an adventure tale to enjoy with your kids, you could do much worse than Time Bandits - you just can't expect the depth of Gilliam's more adult works.
June 05, 2007
The film is resolutely, passionately antiadult, yet much of the humor has an adult sophistication and edge to it; this is one kids' movie that doesn't condescend.
November 14, 2002
Perhaps the greatest characteristic attributable to Time Bandits is its sense of invention. The movie does so many things, all of them well.
