  3. Apr 12, 2019 · With the US release of The Man Who Killed Don Quixote, we have decided to rank every live-action film Terry Gilliam has made from least interesting to best. Only a couple of his early ‘70s animated films have been left out, because they are very much in the vein of his Monty Python work and don’t quite fit in with his feature work, and a ...

    Rotten Tomatoes score: 50% Despite a very average critical response, this 1998 film's high audience score earned it a place on the list. Based on Hunter S. Thompson's 1971 semi-autobiographical novel, a kind of drug-fueled eulogy to the 1960's counterculture movement, it would always be a contentious project. RELATED: From 'Life of Brian' to 'Holy ...

    Rotten Tomatoes score: 64% A contest between the devil (Tom Waits) and Parnassus (Christopher Plummer), the owner of an impoverished troupe of traveling entertainers, this 2009 film revolves around the Imaginarium of the title: a doorway that lets people travel to places shaped by their own desires and where they choose between ignorance and knowle...

    Rotten Tomatoes score: 66% The perfect example of development hell, The Man Who Killed Don Quixote, had been a pet project for Gilliam since 1989. Through thick and thin, starting with a version simply called Don Quixote, and with various actors considered for the role — ranging from Sean Connery, Jean Rochefort, Gérard Depardieu, Robert Duvall, an...

    Rotten Tomatoes score: 84% A remarkable story about love, tragedy, and ultimately, redemption, 1991's The Fisher King starred Robin Williams and Jeff Bridges as two men linked by circumstances and fatewho help each other find a way through their own personal hell. Perhaps because he was not involved in the scriptwriting, The Fisher Kingis the most ...

    Rotten Tomatoes score: 88% Whether or not Gilliam planned 12 Monkeys as a companion piece to Brazil, comparisons are hard to avoid. It's not simply the film's "look" — the almost overwhelming sense of dread and hopelessness inspired by its overall design — but, as in Brazil, it's the tragedy of the inevitable fate waiting for its protagonist, James...

    Rotten Tomatoes score: 90% If Time Bandits were made now, it would still delight and startle audiences like it did in 1981. The story follows a boy, Kevin (Craig Warnock), who joins a band of dwarfs trying to make free with the Supreme Being's map of all spacetime. Their adventures shuffle them through a connected series of set pieces throughout hi...

    Rotten Tomatoes score: 91% One of the first fantasy films ever made was Georges Méliès' The Surprising Adventures of Baron Munchausen. In 1988 it was Gilliam's turn to co-write and direct his version of the life of the famous teller of tall tales as Munchausen (John Neville) avoids the Angel of Death, saves a city from an invading army, antagonizes...

    Rotten Tomatoes score: 98% While Gilliam can make films that delight and enchant, he is perhaps at his best when he creates dark and dystopian worlds. Even in films that are largely upbeat, there are scenes filled with long shadows and a suggestion of desperation. RELATED: The Best R-Rated Sci-Fi Movies, Ranked 1985's Brazil is a film about long sh...

    Rotten Tomatoes score: 98% Often hailed as one of the greatest comedies ever made, 1975's Monty Python and the Holy Grail was the first original film from the renowned and beloved Monty Python troupe (their first film, And Now for Something Completely Different, was a compilation of recreated sketches from their television show). The film had two d...
