Summary: Saddam and Satan!
Review: The Saddam and Satan scenes were classic, this movie lives up to the original South Park concept (ie "Spirit of Christmas" short film). I thought it was pretty darn good for an attempt at a full length film. The only part I didn't like was all of the musical bits (as for that I am personally biased, some people will love that aspect). Be careful, you may find youself spontaneously breaking out singing the "Uncle Fxxxer" song!

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Good Movie, but Way Too Much Language
Review: I recently rented South Park: Bigger, Longer and Uncut hoping to see one of the funniest movies I would ever see. However, the crude and constant use of foul language in this movie kept me from giving this movie a five star. On the other hand, the plot was very entertaining and funny and some language was nessecary to get the message across. However, it wasn't needed in a lot of places. If you are a fan of South Park, as I am, watch this movie. If you've never seen the show and want to see the movie frist, watch a few of the television episodes before sitting through this movie.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Don't Do This Movie on an Airplane!
Review: I've seen this film 3 times in a theater and now, 3 more times in flight. I was coming back to the U.S.A. from London, recently on Virgin Airlines. Visionery, Richard Bramson (Virgin's owner) had the great foresight to include, "Southpark: Bigger, Longer & Uncut" as one of the inflight films.

Despite numerous "pokes" from my wife, it took one of the flight attendants to get me to stop singing along with the movie, as "I was disturbing the other passengers."

Buy it, watch it, again and again!

Summary: Sweet!
Review: Having been a fan of the television show since the begining, I watched this movie fully knowing what to expect, and even I was supprised by this movie's cutting edge humor and terrific plot. How do they always come up with such original and bizarre story lines? I watched this movie with a friend who never had seen "South Park", and he literally asked me to pause the DVD because he was laughing so hard he didn't want to miss anything. Needless to say, he's hooked! This poddy-mouth musical needs the Broadway stage for a live review just as Charlie Brown jumped from the comics to live preformances. An equal opertunity offender with outstanding musical moments. Matt and Trey have done it again!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Exhilarating!
Review: This was pretty much everything I could have hoped for in aSouth Park movie. The plot was an average South Park plot. Atwo-hour long South Park episode? What's wrong with that? Hanging the comedic hook on the premise of animosity toward Canada just isn't that effective. Movies that try to elicit humor by making a scapegoat of Canada (like "Canadian Bacon") don't do that well. The concept flops. But no matter. The writing was at its usual delightful level. Parker & Stone got off their shot at the movie rating board. And I loved it all. I felt a special connection with the character The Mole, as if he were my alter ego. Scary, huh? I was initially worried when I heard this was a musical. But calm your fears; these are no hokey Disneyesque or Broadway show tunes. These are Parker & Stone songs. You know how fun those are. The energy in the songs is overwhelming. I walked out of the theater refreshed, with a spring in my step. When's the last time that ever happened to you? This movie is definitely worth buying.

Rating: 1 stars
Summary: Don't waste your money
Review: I watched this movie expecting it to be funny, it was a waste of money and time. Ask yourself a question before buying this movie--> Do I like swearing? if the answer Yes, then buy it, if No, then DO NOT buy!

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: a college student in southern calfornia
Review: This movie was funny for the first 20 minutes but then it occured to me that this is horrible. I cannot believe that this is what the movie industry uses to entertain us. a movie like this and the success it recieved reflects poorly on this society.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Brilliant Movie, Decent DVD
Review: What is there to say about South Park? The movie is absolutely brilliant--deliciously dirty and an incredibly smart satire. The first viewing is, of course, the funniest, but the movie holds up well under repeated viewings--especially for a movie that derives many of its laughs from shock.

This DVD presents the movie very well, in anamorphic widescreen. And it includes trailers, which is nice. However, I have to take one star off for this DVD not being as good a presentation as it could have. I would love to see a Trey Parker/Matt Stone commentary. Furthermore, I would have absolutely loved to see this DVD include the feature from Boogie Nights in which you can jump directly to a song's scene. One click access to Uncle F**ka, What Would Brian Boitano Do?, La Resistance, etc. would have been perfect.

Still, this DVD is currently the best way to experience the movie, so pick it up if you're a fan. But I still want my Special Edition, Paramount.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: But hey, I'm just a kid
Review: My mom didn't want me to see it, infact I wasn't aloud to see anything remotly related to south park til this summer when my great uncle Don showed my Dad a couple episodes and he was rolling on the floor laughing.

Granted, there are alot of cuss words, and because of that its not for the extremeley religous or for those who think something must be absoluteley clean to be funny a.k.a. people with no sense of humor.

Basicly this movie is about itself, and what could happen, taking a satirical view of censorship in america. Its funny how comedy can be a good protest for the way things are. In it the boys see a rated R movie with alot of cuss words and they start repeating them, and their moms get into fits. This movie is funny with the main plots, the little side storries, and the unforgettable music. This has so many little memorable tunes. I just hope people don't go overboard with this movie, get past the language and find the comedic genious underneath, but hey, I'm just a kid.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: This movie ought to be rated hazardous to your health!
Review: When I saw this movie in the theater I laughed so hard I almost wet my pants. My friend, who has asthma, had to take hits off of his medi-haler after some of the scenes as he was laughing so hard. _South Park_ is crude, scatological and some of the best satire on the planet. Those who discount _South Park_ are those who don't that children are basically asocial little monsters when they can get away with it. It is this understanding by Parker and Stone that makes this show and the movie so funny. I can remember doing similar things when I was a kid. Stone and Parker also have a great appreciation for movie musicals, this movie manages to pay homage to, in a satirical fashion, every genre of musical theatre from Rodgers and Hammerstein to the overblown and maudlin stylings of recent Disney musicals and Andrew Lloyd Webber.
