Wonderful, intelligent burlesque

This film is one of my favorites. I saw it in Europe for the first time and at least 5 five times since then and I still laughing loudly. It's very intelligent humor, full of love about a great man.

The only thing what shocked me is that the American version is missing many great parts. For instance the 'prohibition era' spoof is entirely cut out along with the Albert Schweitzer sketch.

Rent it out today and have a great time!

A celebration of art

Gösta Ekman, you will be missed. If you enjoy comedies like "The Holy Grail" you definitely have to see "The Adventures of Picasso". This film is truly something unique. It blends humour and surrealism while at the same time featuring some of the best slapstick and satire from Swedish cinema. The sets, the effect work and the animation is all fantastic. And especially for the time it was made. There are so many strange and absurd jokes in this that I'm sure Alejandro Jodorowsky himself would have loved this. It's a celebration of the history of art that's also just a really fun time. Recommended!

Hilarious

If this film was much shorter, I'd give it a 10 out of 10. There are so many details to notice, filmatic as well historically. And the use of language will crack you up - at least if you know a little French or Spanish. Lots of silly slapstick and creative use of both props, sets and costumes.

All in all a very funny and silly film that, while it will certainly will keep you entertained, soon runs out of gas. Or you could say that it's a little too far between each gas station, so to speak. This is why I gave it only 7 out of 10, however the funny parts are so good that they are worth the wait.
