The Imaginarium Of Doctor Parnassus

This film had good ideas , but i found the story a bit messy and in some cases hard to follow.

I watched this movie 2 days ago and I thought that it as absolutely amazing. The storyline is very complicated, so you might have to read the plot before watching this film. It was really good to see Verne Troyer to have a serious role and Heath Ledger's performance is really great. The whole idea of Tony's transormation worked really well and this movie was written by Terry Gilliam so expect some Monty Python styled themes such as backgrounds. I would recommend you watch this film because it is really worth it and acting is really good.

As with all Gilliams films, a litle bit wierd and wondrful, the more you use your imagination watchng it, the more you will see. A brilliant bed for Heath Ledgers last film, just like the joker, this role suited him

never a dull moment
Terry Gilliam has done it again
losing a cast member has only enhanced this film. would watch it again in a second.
the acting was amazing, Heath will always be remembered and hands up to lily cole who did a wonderful job.
A must watch for everyone!

Terry Gilliam delivers another visually inventive and wildy creative morality tale that has now been overshadowed more for being the last screen appearance of the late Heath Ledger.

As the Devil (Tom Waits) comes after the inveterate gambler Dr Parnassus (Christopher Plummer) for the 16 year old daughter (Lily Cole) he bartered away years before the old man is trying to figure out yet another way to outsmart his enemy.

Can the discovery of amnesiac Tony (Heath Ledger) provide him a way to save his daughter?

Great acting from all, including Verne Troyer in support and the inventiveness of the visuals make this a great fantasy but obviously all eyes are on Ledger. And if he makes less impavct than he did as The Joker, it's only because he role itself here is far less intense. Nonetheless, it's a fitting final performance that he has left us with. Filling his shoes, Johnny Depp and Colin Farrell acquit themselves best - I wasn't that taken by Jude Law personally but that was the only complaint I had.

All in, a highly enjoyable film!!
