Sometimes that works for me, but it didn't this time.
It worked in the case of The Holy Grail, which didn't have much of a plot - it was more of a collection of sketches. And it was silly.
Lol, you don't see any middle ground between incredibly intricate plots and some songs loosely strung together?
Some bits were quite funny. They made me smile. But it wasn't enough to interest me in the whole thing.
