Now before you get all disapointed let me say that the movie none-the-less was still pretty damn funny. I'd say a solid laugh every 20-30 seconds. It just did not live up to South Park: Bigger, Longer, and Uncut (10/10) in my mind. So before I go into detail, let me reiterate: DO NOT GO INTO THIS FILM EXPECTING ANYTHING SIMILAR TO SOUTH PARK. I'd say about 40% of the movie's humor lies on the puppet factor. Puppets will do something funny since puppets can't move like real people, we got that joke. That was what didn't do it for me. I want the humor to be COMPLETLY dependent on material, not the fact that puppets walk funny. Next, the actual message. This was the best part of the movie. Past all the toliet humor (damn funny) and the puppet humor (got pretty old) the whole terrorism message was stelar. I loved the poking fun at celebrities and the constant ridicule of everything fucked up that has gone down in our currect political situation in the middle east. They had the whole war on terrorism standpoint perfect and funny as ever. Now alot more of the humor in this film was on toliet humor. The overuse of the word fuck, shit, cock, dick, every curse word in the book. This film features a particularly funny puppet sex scene that rocked my world. Hardcore South Park fans will catch a few nods with the Kim Jong Il voice being strickingly similar to the City Wok voice on South Park, and the celebrities as well. I also have to give them MAD props on the hillarious soundtrack this film sported. It was obviously Matt and Trey's band DVDA doing all of the songs and they were hillarious!!! The fact of the matter is that these guys are brilliant at South Park, and pretty damn funny at real-people-movies ( Cannibal: The Musical!!!!!!!!!!). But the puppet angle, although it was good, got extremly overplayed and downed my enjoyment of the movie. I would have much rather seen another South Park movie with the same elements of the war on terrorism parodied in that aspect. I understand they were trying something new, but they're better at South Park...way better. NONE THE LESS, WORTH A WATCH, or two.... ITS STILL DAMN FUNNY 7/10 |
