Digital Spy, 21st July 2014Monty Python Live (mostly) - flogging the dead parrot?
Monty Python Live (Mostly) was always going to be a mild disappointment, because everyone's favourite memories of the troupe are from 30-40 years ago, but as a celebration of the Python name it worked very well. It felt good to see them all together, one final time, having fun, giving the fans what they came to see. It could have been a lot better with more thought and fresh material, and had the slight whiff of a cash-grab because it felt a bit lazy at times... but, during the inevitable "Always Look on the Bright Side of Life" climactic sing-along, after which the Pythons linked hands and bowed to the 15,000-strong audience (plus the millions of others watching around the world), I was suddenly moved.
