He's unconventional and doesn't conform to "industry standards". That alone makes him worthwhile.
As for his style, well, it's his style. Unmistakably. I'll say the same thing I say for Wes Anderson or Tim Burton: You don't have to like their signature approach to visual storytelling, but at least they have an approach to visual storytelling. That's automatically better than not having one at all, i.e. 90%+ of Hollywood's studio puppets.

his animations delighted me. brazil, one of the greatest films of all time. never understood his life-long study of don quixote. laughed when he interacted with graham chapman's ashes. guy is royalty

His more recent stuff hasn't been as good but Time Bandits, Brazil, Baron Munchhausen, Fisher King, Twelve Monkeys, Fear and Loathing is a really great run of films.
>>
>>221189791

I always found it odd that some rando American ended up in Monty Python, the archetype of British anything.
>>
>>221190630
I thought Zero Theorem was decent
>>
Made a lot more good movies than bad.
>>
>>221189791
He's a good retarded hack director.

One of the best of all time. And people forget Holy Grail is him too.

He will go down as the maker of the greatest dwarf movie in human history. He was also able to make child kidnapping and a half naked fat guy with a model ship not look pedo. I kneel.

>good director

I haven't seen any of his films since Fear and Loathing; but I liked pretty much everything he made in the 20th century. If nothing else he has some amazing visuals, I think he may just be a little too weird to function in modern Hollywood.

He was the animator. They recruited him to do the cartoons.

>>221189791
Retard savant, though lately he's lean to far to the latter.
