Avventure e guai tragicomici di re Artù e dei suoi cavalieri che vanno alla ricerca del santo Graal e fanno gli incontri più strani. Benché diseguale e sgangherato, per colpa della regia a due teste e dei mezzi insufficienti, i fan vi troveranno: ricchezza di gag, ritmo, gusto per il grottesco e l'anarchia.
