    The Fisher King

    Set in a highly-stylized and ultra grim Manhattan, The Fisher King is Terry Gilliam';;s magical reworking of an Arthurian legend. After hearing a popular DJ rail against yuppies, a madman carries out a massacre in a popular New York bar. A burned-out, embittered radio deejay finds personal salvation after he is saved from death by a strange vagabond who takes him into a dark, fantastic quest for the Holy Grail.

  • Critic Reviews of "The Fisher King"

    Chicago Reader
    January 29, 2010

    Visually impressive, frequently pretentious, and extremely fluid as narrative (the 137 minutes sail by effortlessly), this mythic comedy-drama presents Gilliam as half seer, half snake-oil salesman and defies you to sort out which is which.

    Variety
    March 26, 2009

    The Fisher King has two actors at the top of their form, and a compelling, well-directed and well-produced story.

    Newsweek
    April 07, 2008

    Working within the constraints of a big studio film has brought out Gilliam's best: he's become a true storyteller and a wonderful director of actors. This time he delights not only the eye but the soul.

    Scary, touching, often hilarious, this modern fairytale is surprisingly enchanting.

    New York Times

    For every wild ride through Manhattan by an imaginary Red Knight trailing billows of flame, there is a small, comic encounter in a more down-to-earth mode.

    Rolling Stone
    May 12, 2001

    So what if it's not perfect? It's magic.

    Common Sense Media
    August 09, 2016

    Intense '90s drama has gory violence, mature themes.

    [Numbers] among the director's masterpieces.

    The Dissolve
    June 22, 2015

    Gilliam exaggerates the romanticism, the grotesquerie, and the personal pain that runs through LaGravenese's story, creating a reality where the more preposterous turns make sense.

    Cinema Sight
    August 15, 2011

    It's sometimes hard to follow the action, but you have a bit of fun trying to figure it all out.

    TV Guide
    January 29, 2010

    The Fisher King's problems begin with Richard LaGravenese's screenplay and are amplified by Gilliam's showy direction and an unbearably fey performance by Robin Williams.
