  I quite liked the ending, and thought it was a hilarious way to finish it. Maybe I’m alone, however I honestly did like that as it seemed typical of a Monty Python thing.

    I can’t even watch it now. I’ve seen the movie countless times, haven’t watched the ending in probably 20 years. It’s just straight up better if you cut it off like the sopranos lol

      the ending is a great joke (a literal cop out) but I agree it isn’t all that fun to watch. it (purposely) is very anticlimactic. even with all the shenanigans going on thru the movie, it still has the main plot of Arthur finding the Grail. people want resolution to that even if it’s a weak joke, for example

  What you on about, the ending is great? It’s dumb sure. But it perfectly suits the film and Monty python in general in my opinion
