Life of Brian is a fantastic comedy, one of my top favourite films.
But I don't think it's blasphemous at all. In fact, Jesus is actually treated with respect in the Sermon on the Mount scene.
What the film does, and does brilliantly, is highlight problems with some of those who are followers of religion - such as in the Sermon on the Mount scene when it's made clear just how easy it is to misunderstand things; or at the scene where the crowd harassing Brian argue amongsht themselves about what's more important the sandal or the gourd - mocking factionalism and how it's easy to get caught up in things which aren't important.
