Most TV shows that are made into movies usually suck. However, every once in a while, a TV show-movie comes along that has fans awe-struck, and that's what South Park: Bigger, Longer, and Uncut is. If you love the series, you'll love the movie. If you're like me and enjoy the show but don't find it hilarious, that's the same as what you'll think of the movie. If you think it's deplorable for its language and curse anyone who watches, well
stay away from this movie.
Surprisingly short and entertaining, it's also surprisingly a musical. Although it boasts famous songs like `Blame Canada' and `Kyle's Mom is a Big Fat B**ch', they're all basically the same. They are, however, memorable and unexpected. I don't religiously watch the show, but occasionally I do and have a laugh at it. It's basically what you'd expect from a 30-minute crudely animated TV show. It's a fast-paced movie that has four kids from South Park, Colorado, who try to stop the United States from waging war against Canada. In it is childhood love, Conan O'Brian committing suicide, V-chips, and much more.
Paramount must have paid the Guinness World Record people a lot of money, because it holds a record for `most swearing in an animated movie'. There are 399 curse words (about 128 F-words) and 128 offensive gestures, and I saw it uncut on Comedy Central. It's probably going to make Comedy Central receive its highest ratings, but I don't really see why. It's funny at times, very funny, but it isn't consistent, and the plot moves too quickly for its own good.
The show's creators, Trey Parker and Matt Stone, who also wrote the film, voiced most of the main characters, who all sounded the same. At times, it was hard to understand what the characters were saying, but the animation was a little better than the TV series. However, nobody would care about that. All they want to do is laugh, and I think there are better movies than this to do that in, but if you see South Park: Bigger, Longer, and Uncut, you won't be disappointed, or not much.
My rating: 7/10
Rated R for pervasive vulgar language and crude sexual humor, and for some violent images.
