The review praises Life of Brian (Brian Di Nazareth) as a brilliant satire aimed at political and religious fanaticism. It highlights the chameleon-like performances of the Monty Python troupe and Terry Jones's role as Brian's mother. The reviewer singles out Palin's Pilate and the film's enduring wit and wordplay.
