REVIEW: THE IMAGINARIUM OF DOCTOR PARNASSUS

Right off the bat, I’m going to say it’s a movie I wouldn’t recommend to a buddy. But that might just be a commentary on the sort of company I keep (goons), not the film’s quality itself. And how do I even begin to tell that buddy what it’s all about? In classic Terry Gilliam fashion, it meanders an...

There’s a curate’s egg quality to The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus. Admittedly, with that mouthful of a title, the end result was unlikely to be without flaws. But, as ever with Terry Gilliam, all the broken pieces are somehow precious. After all, nobody else on Earth would make a movie like this.
