Time Bandits

Time Bandits Terry Gilliam’s endlessly inventive fantasy is 25 years old this year and still manages to knock spots off the dozens of more expensive movies that have followed (even Gilliam’s own!). When a young schoolboy is whisked off on a journey through time and space by six renegade dwarves he meets heroes and villains in ascending order until finally he is confronted by God Himself. An ferociously ingenious movie that just gets better and better.
