Although it isn't quite consistent with itself and some parts devolve into typical Gilliam absurdism, Time Bandits is a fun and imaginative adventure tale, in the vein of Labyrinth and the Princess Bride. The visuals are vintage Gilliam, the start of the director's flair for unique set pieces, and the film has some smartly written lines.
