Carry On Cleo

The Funniest Film Since 54 B.C.

196494 min6.7 / 10

A broad, irreverent British comedy that gleefully parodies historical epics through slapstick, wordplay, and absurdist humor.

Two Britons—inventor Hengist Pod, and Horse, a brave and cunning fighter—are captured and enslaved by invading Romans and taken to Rome. One of their first encounters in Rome leaves Hengist being mistaken for a fighter, and gets drafted into the Royal Guard to protect Julius Caesar.
