12 Monkeys DVD Review

12 Monkeys was one of the strangest and most enjoyable movies I've ever watched. Terry Gilliam directs this sci-fi masterpiece with a weirdness that has become his signature. I personally think Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas is the best movie Gilliam's ever directed, but I know the court of public opinion won't let normal people think that way. 12 Monkeys is about an unstable criminal being sent back in time from the year 2035 to discover the origins of a plague that is ravaging mankind. In the future they have experimented with time-travel, but they have not perfected it, as our hero gets tossed back and forth and ends up making appearances in eras that are not relevant to his mission. Don't worry, this isn't like those campy Bill & Ted movies, I swear.

Look at these incredible prices on 12 Monkeys DVDs. What's that? You're not an Ebay member! Perhaps it's time to crawl out of that cave and into the 21st century. Register as an Ebay member now. Of course it's free! It boggles my mind when I see people pay retail for items they can get on Ebay for 80% less.

Be sure to check out "The Hamster Factor" documentary included in this special collector's edition. You'll really appreciate the effort Gilliam puts into his work after seeing it.
