I can tell you that this movie is really great. The Fisher King has collected big amount good reviews among critics and society. I sat in the cinema for a long time after the movie ended, reflecting on my thoughts, and returned home in a calm and meditative mood. The Fisher King filled me with hard to explain energy, made me so embedded in it. I walked into this movie totally blind. I knew nothing about it, even never saw a trailer... The sum of detail and small things of the movie that you can long time later is really amazing. I want to recommend this movie to everyone, you will be satisfied after watching.

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.
