Reviews of The Simpsons Movie

I thought this would be awful.

Posted : 5 months ago on 5 March 2008 11:36 (A review of The Simpsons Movie)

A Simpsons movie?! I thought, in absolute outrage. Hasn't that corpse been picked dry already?! This was going to be painful.
I awaited it patiently, the adverts began to get tiresome as it was the same joke repeated on tv, cinema, radio, posters, etc etc, i kept thinking to my self "If thats the funniest point in the movie (as adverts normally wind up portraying) then this is worse than i thought!
Fortunately i presumed wrong! The adverts merely portrayed a taste of things to come, and there was a hell of a lot!!
The plot is completely random, like all Simpson episodes, but fantastic in the sense that while you are thinking what the hell?! You are also thinking, thats my Homer!! It was inevitable that he would eventually cause some kind of national trouble which causes the downfall of Springfield and this was the perfect stage for it. I expected "just a long episode" and i think that was probably one of the main worries when writing a film for the Simpsons, and it was overcome just right.
This film had the right amount of "action" (unlike some scenes of family guy that seem to go on a bit too long) the right amount of dragging a joke, ie the hammering the nail into his hand/head gag was used a few times in the film but every time it made me laugh again. It also has the right timing, the right deliverance, and all the characters get to play a part and be funny.
In a normal episode Homer and Bart would usually take center stage in some way, and they did in most of the film, what with its subplot of Homer and Bart's father-son relationship. But Lisa Marge and Maggie had their moments and were funnier than they have been in years, while Ralph was used less which is a bonus in any episode because he just is not funny.
This film should be enough to convince any fan of the Simpsons who had given up completely, that there is still some magic left in the old thing. Its on its 19th season at the moment, and the episodes iv watched recently seem a little lacking in the wit department, but after this film and after reading a lot of the upcoming episode synopsis' i am hopeful it is heading for a revival.

The Simpsons Movie review

Am-a-zing!!
This film was brilliant!
The Simpsons is clearly my favourite TV show and to see it on the big screen was great! Though Homer Simpson thinks we're 'suckers' for watching something that we could see for free at home.. lol

It had some of the funniest jokes from the simpsons, i havent laughed as much in the cinema for a while =] DEFINETLY recommend this to any simpsons fan, well worth it!

The movie was better than i expected.

All i can say is

"Spiderpig Spiderpig
Does what ever a spiderpig does
Can he swing, from a web
No he cant hes just a pig
Look out, he is a spiderpig"
