Sinopsis(1)
Una espectacular fantasía épica totalmente distinta a cualquier otra película. ¿Quién es el Barón Munchausen? ¿un mentiroso?... ¿un bribón?... ¿un loco?... ¿o el más grande super-héroe que luchó y venció en los más disparatados combates? ¿Será cierto que cabalgó por el aire en una bala de cañón, acabó con un dragón de tres cabezas, que viajó a la luna y todo ello antes de desayunar...? (Columbia Films S.A.)

A magical fairy tale in the inimitable style of Terry Gilliam. I wonder what would have happened if he had made a Harry Potter film, which was reportedly under consideration.

Narrative hedonism that divides its audience right in the film. I'll always choose John Neville over Vincent Price, my old pals aren't what they used to be either, but I have faith that one day we'll all get together and save the city. And then we'll get trashed. Yeah.)

It is not a pure fairy tale and it also doesn't work as an adventure film – perhaps there is enough humor and irony – but for my taste, it is a bit lacking. Visually, it is typically Gilliam, with bizarre and sometimes insanely theatrical-looking sets – I'm starting to become a little allergic to the director's name because every film is eccentricity. It's not that I mind the fact that everything is not typically Hollywood, but I simply don't like this style. The running time is also too long considering how simple the screenplay is, and essentially we only have three big flashback parts (moon, volcano, and fish). The ending is also quite strange, they did let their imagination run wild here, and it shows.

Visually, it is definitely an interesting film, but honestly, I'm not as entertained by Gilliam's visual approach. No, when the story isn't as interesting to impress me as a whole film. And that's exactly what happened to me with the film "The Adventures of Baron Munchausen". Visually interesting, beautiful tricks and masks, but the overall impression is diluted by an uninteresting presentation of the story.
