In Terry Gilliam's fantastic voyage through time and space, a young boy named Kevin (Craig Warnock) escapes from his gadget-obsessed parents to join a band of time-traveling dwarves. Armed with a map stolen from the Supreme Being (Ralph Richardson), they plunder treasure from Napoleon (Ian Holm) and Agamemnon (Sean Connery)--but the Evil Genius (David Warner) is watching every move! Featuring a darkly playful script by Gilliam and Michael Palin, "Time Bandits" is all at once a giddy fairy tale, a revisionist history lesson, and a satire on technology gone awry.
