Product Description

Having survived a 20-year incarceration for tax evasion, the notorious pirate Yellowbeard (Graham Chapman, Monty Python's Life of Brian) escapes to claim his hidden treasure after the Royal Navy imposes a bogus additional prison sentence. Gathering a crew of miscreants and near-do-wells (AKA his friend and companions), Yellowbeard sets out to locate the treasure map (which has been inexplicably tattooed on his son's head) and find the booty in this comic riff on the swashbuckler. With supporting turns from cast mates John Cleese, Eric Idle, Peter Boyle, Marty Feldman, Madeline Kahn, Kenneth Mars, Martin Hewitt, 'Cheech' Marin, Tommy Chong, Peter Cook, Spike Milligan, Ferdy Mayne and James Mason, Yellowbeard provides hilarious hi jinks on the high seas.

Received our purchase in perfect shape and ahead of time for delivery. Our copy of "Yellowbeard" was stolen, so we were happy to have the movie again.

Classic movie with Monty Python influence. Watch it close, because the details will make you laugh more than the movie will.
Reviewed in the United States on July 20, 2012
What a treat! "Yellowbeard" is an irreverently broad send-up of just about every classic swashbuckling epic ever made, from "Treasure Island" and "Captain Blood" to "Mutiny on the Bounty." Featuring one of the most amazing assemblages of comedic talent ever to show up in one film; "Young Frankenstein" alums Marty Feldman, Peter Boyle, Madaline Kahn, and Kenneth Mars meet former Pythons Graham Chapman, John Cleese and Eric Idle, with Cheech and Chong, Peter Cook and Spike Milligan thrown in for good measure. "Serious" actors James Mason, Michael Hordern and Susanah York display some pretty well-developed comedic chops, too. The humor is absurdly broad as one might expect from this cast, ("I may be blind, but I've got acute 'earing!" "I'm not interested in your jewelry!") the "plot" more or less a pretense for bad puns and groan-inducing punchlines ("Prawn of my loins, my foot!), and the story seems to meander off in stange directions at times, especially when Cheech and Chong take center stage; but if you're in an appropriately silly frame of mind and looking for fun, "Yellowbeard" will have you laughing for a good 90 minutes, and wondering how the time went by so fast.

She wanted it.
Reviewed in the United States on August 2, 2013
This movie, like Casablanca, has lines that are memorable and come to mind in daily life at odd times in a funny way. "You'll have to kill Me before I die!" or "Ahhh, Prison has reformed him!" (in the movie in reference to Yellowbeard (aka Graham Chapman) supposedly raping with his clothes on since he used to "take them off in the old days" as Madeline Kahn puts it. Something like this could fall flat on it's face with boorishness, but done by masters of comedy, they spin gold with hay.

For me, like many British comedies, it gets funnier the more you watch it the first few times, and holds it's charm long afterwards. I've had friends watch it the first time not thinking much of it. Then giggling a few times the next 2-3 times. Then belting out laughing the 5th+ time. It's a movie that has "in" jokes that you become a part of with time.

This movie is a mixture of cast members from "Young Frankenstein", Cheech & Chong, and a few Monty Python members. The screenplay writing is quite rash. "I'll pin your tits to the table" or "It can't have been you, I'm sure I killed the last one I raped". What makes these lines even remotely funny is a normally stoic Graham Chapman delivers a rare outrageous performance and delivers them with rare gift of phrasing and timing. Such a natural talent.

It gets poor ratings on IMDB and from Ebert, and even Cleese supposedly said it's "one of the worst 5 movies ever made" but I have always had a bizarre sense of humor and for me it's my favorite comedy. Pirates, Sexual Humour, outrageousness, and for once, a Pythonish skit with an actual plot!

And when people try to dismiss this below-the-radar-jewel, just remember, it's never more dangerous than when it's dead!!

This movie is far under-rated in the realm of the Python movies. Seems to me it didn't get enough PR or something because as a comedy film alone it is hilarious. It stars Graham Chapman (Yellowbead a crude, nasty, out of touch, murderous pirate that kills anyone that gets in the way of his killing anyone), John Cleese (Blind Pew who has the most acute hearing in the world), Eric Idle, Marty Feldman, Cheech and Chong (Spanish morons), Madeline Kahn (the unfaithful Mrs. Yellowbeard), Peter Boyle (Yellowbeard's adversary and former ship-mate, Moon), and James Mason (a cruely funny, overly sadastic, extreme Mutiny on the Bounty captain type). It is set in the year 1707 and starts out with Yellowbeard nearing his release after 15 years in an English prison, and of course everyone wants to know where Yellowbeard hid his pirate treasure. Yellowbeard escapes the prison after his sentence is unfairly increased (to get him angry enough to escape on purpose) just before his parole and the rest movie is based on his attempt to avoid beng imprisoned again while being chased by the limp-wristed British authorities and going on a funny non-sensical killing, raping (because he likes rape) and pilliging rampage tryng to recover the treasure he hid so long ago. Of course the British authorities and Moon are after the treasure too :) This is a classic and should have been released on DVD a long time ago. This is Python stuff at it's best with the nastiest Python humor anywhere! Someone please pick up on it and make a DVD of it soon as I have only used rental resale VHS version (accch!) copy of it and would love to see it as it was meant to be seen- clearly and with good THX sound.

Perfect Cast made in wrong era. Caught between Python dry and Cheech n Chong Raunch it lacks Irreverencey . The 80s began a censorship culture that pulled away from 70s culture satire of Blazing Saddles and Pythons Life of Brian. All the pieces are assembled but jokes lack punch.

5.0 out of 5 stars From the insane minds of Monty Python......
Reviewed in Canada on March 8, 2020
A wacky, yet fun film from the insane minds of Monty Python, with an all star cast to boot.

A Pirate adventure film done in traditional British Humour style. I laughed my head off at Tommy Chong's character with his oh so noticeable speech impediment, and we even get to see David Bowie make an appearance.

If you are a Fan of that Python style of comedy, then this little GEM is well worth the buy on Blue Ray. It's one of those films that will disappear and go out of print, so get it while you can.

5.0 out of 5 stars Watch this film at least once in your life
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on September 19, 2015
One of the best and definitely under-rated Python offerings, some great 'acting' on show by a host of comedy greats including Marty Feldman, Beryl Reid, Nigel Planer, Cheech & Chong mixed in with a good smattering of the Python crew and one or two other talented more classical actors and actresses, such as James Mason and Madeline Khan.

The film is wonderfully scripted and done in a manner that no-one really stars, but equally take part in a swashbuckling emsemble of fun and frolics. To appreciate this gem of a movie requires a few viewings, the first time you watch it you'll spend a fair amount laughing your head off, hence you're bound to miss some of the finer points of the film going on in the background.

If I were in charge of the BBC, I'd make sure this makes the Christmas Day listings, to be repeated on Boxing Day. Only then will this film truly gain the cult status that it deserves.
