Summary: A Great Musical...This According to a Gershwin
Review: Now, I know it certainly isn't PC to say this, but this is my FAVORITE comedy OF ALL TIME. Put down your Dr. Strangelove, your Holy Grail and your Pink Panther. What Trey Parker and Matt Stone have here is nothing short of comedic genius. All of that is not to say that "toilet humor," as Mrs. Broflovski puts it, is genius. But the way in which the fearsome foursome prance their way light-heartedly through all of the paranoia, uptightness and finger-pointing reminds me of the great comedians of old times like Rabelais.

The music is great, too. I mean, Blame Canada was nominated for an Oscar for Pete's sake. Now, I'm sure they WANTED to nominate Uncle F**ka, but that really wasn't possible. Regardless, the music is catchy, well performed (who'd have guessed the singing would actually work?) and absolutely hilarious.

The humor of this movie runs deeper than just fart jokes, though fart jokes are great. The thing that will allow this movie to hold up decades from now is its satire, its unwillingness to take itself seriously and its startling originality. The movie ends with Cartman saying "Barbara Streisand" to activate the V-Chip in his brain, shoot lightning out of his hands and banish the Devil and Sadaam Hussein, who have been allowed to come and take over the world because of paranoid parental protests. Who comes up with that? Comedic geniuses, that's who.

Summary: South Park or Goodfellas ?
Review: 1/2 Star....at best.
How many times can you possibly use the F-word in a movie? Judging by this piece of trash, not enough.....
Come on, guys! This isn't creative and it isn't funny. It's filth.

Spend your money on the season DVD's.

Summary: miss... miss... hit... miss... miss... miss...
Review: Some would say that South Park has always been a hit-or-miss affair. It's always crude and irreverent, but it is also occasionally hilarious social commentary. But it is at least as often mere trash without any redeeming value. Could anyone seriously think that a half-hour episode of Terrance and Phillip farting was anything other than Trey and Matt's way of telling their viewers how little they thought of them? Does anyone really think that Mr. Hankey is anything better than annoying? If you answered either of these questions "yes," this is the movie for you. Check "yes" where it asks "was this review helpful" and buy this movie without delay. And read no further.

For the rest of us, don't bother with this movie. With the South Park series, there are really good episodes and really bad episodes. Mmmmkay? The problem with the movie is that it's got both. Mmmmkay? It's as if they had a half an hour of good material, and then stretched out to movie length, with garbage thrown in to fill the extra time. Mmmmkay?

Contrary to what the gushing reviews have said, the social satire isn't brilliant, it trite. The songs aren't brilliant, they're tripe. This movie doesn't even begin to approach the quality of "Beavis and Butt Head Do America." It's just tedious.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Only the intelligent "get" South Park
Review: What I found interesting about the movie was how we were shown that it's not Satan we have to worry about taking over the world- it's extreme, narrow minded knee-jerk reacting people (unfortunately those who seem to have the most power, or at least the loudest voices) who will be our undoing. South Park is some of the best satire I've ever seen, bar none. People who can't get past the profanity and farts to hear the show's message aren't worth my time and energy. They can go back to their Seinfeld and Friends and live on in blissful ignorance. Parker and Stone are the big middle finger to these people. Bravo! Long live the 1st Ammendment.

Summary: Deliriously hilarious
Review: A movie containing lots of profanity about the reaction to a movie containing lots of profanity, "South Park: Bigger Longer, and Uncut" is also on the short list of THE funniest movies ever made. This movie manages to remain hilarious even after repeated viewings (I'm at about eleven and counting) by taking everything that makes the TV show such a romp and carrying it to even greater levels of excess. About five minutes in, when Terrence and Phillip break into a seemingly impromptu song and dance number whose name I can't repeat, it's obvious how much fun Trey Parker and Matt Stone had letting loose with everything they couldn't put on TV. Blatantly calculated to please the show's fans and appall its detractors, "Bigger, Longer and Uncut" celebrates political incorrectness at every turn. Pushing the show's penchant for subversion to new heights, the movie simultaneously manages to turn profanity into a plot device and an art form. The first half of the movie is especially devastating, with the walking id known as Cartman unleashed in all his greedy, racist, foul-mouthed glory before his wrath is short-circuited by a V-chip. The onslaught of naughty language and gross-outs could become numbing in a less intelligent movie, but fortunately the satirical edge that has always characterized "South Park" is completely intact. Human nature in general and American culture in particular are given a massive sendup, with special attention devoted to the insufferable moralizing of hypocritical censorhip advocates that's best exemplified by Mrs. Broflofski's immortal line, "horrific, deplorable violence is okay, as long as no one uses any naughty words!" And even when it's not slicing and dicing some aspect of modern life, the movie comes up with enough zany, inspired details to evoke continuous laughter in all but the most uptight viewers. A must-see if there ever was one.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Kick Ass!
Review: Oh, God. This movie was awesome. It was funny as sh**! It must of had hundreds of cuss words!

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: How many times can we say the f-word?
Review: First off, I'm a big fan of the South Park TV show. The TV show has always been crude, vulgar, and witty. The movie is not witty. The whole movie is just trash! They must have used the f-word over one hundred times and it never generates a laugh. They were going purely for shock value of the f-word. It seems the script was written by a bunch of 10-year-olds that just learned how to swear. C'mon, I know these guys can do better.

I am not one of those people that are hyper-sensitive about everything. I am just calling it as I see it. This movie is stupid. I really don't understand what other people see in this movie. I think people just like the excessive vulgarity. This movie will seem very dated over time as the next "Elvis" becomes popular.

The story is OK but slow moving because of all of the lame songs. I would recommend getting any of the season DVDs before getting the movie.

PS ...or get the newer Primus DVD... highly recommended!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Hey dillhead005
Review: The kid was saying that the makers of the Terrance and Phillip movie are canadian, not Trey Parker and Matt Stone. As for spoiling anything, the Kenny part is not that big of a deal. Hope you did not lose too much sleep over it.
