The Adventures of Baron Munchausen (1988)
Should I see it?
If you have spare time.
If you have spare time.
Sally Salt (Sarah Polley), a young girl, follows the mystical Hieronymus Karl Frederick Baron von Munchausen a.k.a. Baron Munchausen (John Neville) up to the moon, through the center of the Earth and into the stomach of a sea monster as he tries to compile his group of fellow adventurers.
Terry Gilliam (The Fisher King, Brazil, Monty Python And The Holy Grail) overplays his talent and delivers a cramped and distracted piece that manages more smiles than laughs. Like many of his other films, this is more interesting for its design than its story.

This is the worst film I've ever seen. Worse than Avenging Angel 2.
