Rating out of 4: ***
**possible spoilers**
After four elementary school boys, Stan, Cartman, Kyle, and Kenny see a movie about two Canadian comedians named Terrence and Phillip who use nothing but profanity to be funny, the kids suddenly get a habit into cursing. The boys' moms find out that Kenny died from attempting one of their stunts(go figure), and Kyle's mother goes on strike about having Terrence and Phillip arrested. They are arrested, and the boys think that it is their fault. They decide to break him free, and if Terrence and Phillip die, then Satan and Saddam Hussein will rise from Hell and take over the world.
A pretty funny movie, but most of it is ruined by some of the stupid jokes. The Terrence and Phillip song got really stupid and annoying, the racism would probably be offensive to some people. But hey, it's a movie. And a satire, I might add. I wasn't a big fan of the show, I watched it occasionally, but this was a little better.
I think that it is amazing at how Parker and Stone do the voices of the many, many, characters. However, one of the major cons, is the use of profanity. When they use it for no purpose, it wasn't funny. But, it was when they used it for a consequence. For example, when Cartman has the "V-Chip" in his head then swears and gets shocked. That was hilarious.
Overall, this movie is worth a look, but if you do not like the TV Show, then don't see it.
