oh my God, this film is the best if you have not seen this film you really need to. It is one of those films that you quote most of the line. The story is pointless but that�s what makes this film so good also all the characters are funny.
Yeah everyone says the first time they watch it 'i dont get it' ...theres nothing to get!! Thats whats so good about it!! Definatly watch it, its a classic!!!
I agree with Shineybomb, you either love it or you don't. It IS one of the most quotable movies ever though, it's almost more fun to sit and quote the movie after seeing it with your friends.
That being said, I did love it and it's hugely popular in the States. Everywhere I went I saw NP t-shirts, greeting cards, books, posters, you name it.....
I think it's very much like Withnail and I in the sense that it has a legion of devoted fans who find it hilarious and love quoting its lines, but loads of other people just don't get it. For what it's worth, I think it's comedy genius. PS Vote for Pedro.
I didn't like it. But then I never like movies about poor, ugly people doing boring stuff. Too much like my own life, I need escapism! Bring on the Aliens I say...
