For a very long time, this was the only thing I knew about The Life of Brian:
Such a perfect oddball moment - just the thing you *wouldn't* expect from the Monty Python crew, until you do.
The rest of the film? Eh.
The premise is fine. I didn't find it particularly blasphemous as many people have reported.
But I didn't need to see Graham Chapman's dong, sorry.
The film took an interesting premise -- one that's often misinterpreted as "What if someone else were mistaken as the Messiah -- and turns in a pretty lackluster movie, in my opinion. Fun set bits, but overall their sketch comedy is better. (The premise, I should mention: A bored dude gets caught up in an anti-Roman rebellion and comic hijinx ensue.)
