A tasty baron. A fantastic baron. A mesmerizing baron. The Adventures Of Baron Munchausen is a movie that has come here to take you on a trip to the far ends of this world where fairy tales and bedtime stories is what really matters. Filled with fantasy elements, from trips to the moon till fights with the Turks the baron is a movie that will do you good, it will hug you and love you like you are the most beloved lover of it. Terry Gilliam, one of the greatest fairly tale storytellers that we have, is here to entertain you and take you by the hand on a trip that will be most refreshing for you. The Adventures Of Baron Munchausen is a movie that speaks the words of the fantastic, the one that no one believes but truth is that is out there and if you have the right kind of eyes you can witness it. The movie has all those elements that makes it a film that is here to make you feel bigger than you are, to make you say that "one day I will by a horse and I will go on an expedition with it." You see the love of the adventure, the love of the thrill, the love of staying unafraid, the love of being who you are and not giving a damn about what others think about you are qualities that you can find in that movie. There is that strong character that this film has, that strong persona that it has and it speaks about a story that tells us that fear is the ultimate horror in that life. Fear of the thing that lies outside, fear of ourselves, fear of everything that is not ours.
The Adventures Of Baron Munchausen is a movie that takes you on a huge trip. This is what the film is about. About going out there and making it, no matter who you are. Your momentum will prevail. Your fear will die, your enemies will be thrashed. There is no better recipe than the trip, the journey, the adventure. The thing that we all have in our hearts, the thing that we all are afraid of pursuing. We live safe lives inside a cocoon, and we think that this living, that safe, miserable thing that has routine for entertainment and boredom for fun. The Adventures Of Baron Munchausen tells you the quite opposite. It tells you to go out there. To be there, to participate and the thing will happen. To be one of them, to not forget that you are special. And by special I mean all the idiosyncrasies that you might have. Take the ride. Don't be a fool. Don't let others do what you were meant to do. Live your life. Tell the story. Tell that bedtime story and believe in it. Because bedtime stories are more real than life. You see you were meant for adventure. Like Bilbo was. The Adventures Of Baron Munchausen is a movie most didactic. And we are listening with great interest.
