Criterion has released a superb version of Monty Python's Life of Brian on DVD. The widescreen anamorphic transfer preserves the original theatrical aspect ratio of 1.85:1. The film has never looked this good on video before. The English soundtrack is rendered in Dolby Digital Surround. English subtitles are accessible. The fantastic supplemental materials include one commentary track by director Terry Jones, Terry Gilliam, and Eric Idle, as well as a second commentary track by John Cleese and Michael Palin. Also available are the original theatrical trailer, deleted scenes with commentary from Python members, British radio spots, and a documentary film made during production. The film looks great and the bonus features give Python fans everything they could want.

Don't know what the first reviewer was watching...this is the funniest parody of religious fanaticism ever. Even funnier than Holy Grail.
