Oy, so this has a long convoluted back history and it's crazy it's gonna be shown in theaters at all. Terry Gilliam, cult director and Monty Python has had this film in limbo in pre-production, production and finally release due to money issues and other factors and there is still some legal issues over ownership . It's unknown if you"ll ever get a streaming version or blu-ray soon. So, it may be your only chance for possibly years to see it?
It has such a generic plot device of the advertising exec as the protagnist that it may seems really dated. That's the job movies give people in rom com's and live action Smurf films.
