Summary: The Most Savage Satire Since Swift's "A Modest Proposal"
Review: At a time when the popular media was being blamed for every social ill short of bad breath, Parker and Stone let Eric Cartman and the South Gang remind us that there are worse things than a few dirty words. A hilarious and courageous movie statement in support of free speech. It's pure satire which means a lot of people won't "get it." But if you understand and support our First Amendment rights, chances are that you will applaud this marvelous film.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: Take it or leave it
Review: Much like this year's TV episodes, the movie seems to bode the winding down of the South Park phenomenom. It was good while it lasted but the ride is coming to an end. Everything the creators wanted to say has been said and they are showing no inclination to take it to the next level (if such a level even exists). Unlike the Simpsons which keeps finding new avenues to travel, South Park is a one-way street. But what a street it was....

Mind you, the movie has some very funny moments plus a mildly insightful commentary on the damage inflicted when parents neglect their duties to nurture and guide their children all the while expecting other resources to provide it. I do take issue with the gratuitous use of the f-word - it was funny the first 400 times someone said it - but after a while I found myself wishing they would just get on with the dialogue. Being from Canada, I found the references to the 'evil Canadians' hilarious. There is a glaring error, however, when the Canadian Air Force attacks. We don't have anywhere near that many planes and we can only wish they were made of such good quality paper. The 'happy' ending for Kenny was a nice touch.

All-in-all, it's a good buy but I'm not sure I had to get the DVD version. Although there is a veritable gold mine of opportunity here, the producers opted for essentially nothing in the way of extras. Who do they think they are, Walt Disney? (Don't get me started on that issue! )

Summary: The Funniest Redneck Mountain Town Ever!
Review: This has to be the funniest movie ever. Period. I laughed so hard that on several occasions I came close to losing bladder and bowel control. Is it crude and rude - for sure! Is it offensive - you bet! But is it mindless, immature, or "toliet trash humor"? - no way. Practically everything in the movie is a satire of something - politics, T.V., celebrities, political correctness, religion, etc; they leave no stones unturned. I think pretty much anyone will be offended by something in the movie, and thats the point - they aren't picking on anyone in particular; they are picking on everyone. People need to remove the sticks from their rectums and stop taking themselves so damm seriously. If we can't laugh at ourselves then who can we laugh at? The Baldwins? Celine Dion? Satan? The fact that this movie is listed under Amazons family section? - well, its a start anyway.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: No sense of humor? It's not for you.......
Review: If you can't handle swearing, if you can't get past being shocked, if you have no patience with song lyrics skip this movie -- it's wonderful and most of it's joy is in it's incredible music. Anyone who tells you this movie is anything but brilliant suffers from being a stick in the mud with no attention span. It amazes me that anyone could sit through this movie with any kind of intelligence and sense of humor and walk away NOT thinking these guys are some of the most incisive and hilarious social critics of our time. Plus it's funny. And if you don't find yourself humming a tune or two afterwards you must have a tin ear. My kids (12 & 15) adored it, and they get the point of the story: the foolishness of prejudice, the importance of accepting responsibility for your own kids, and the relative harm to childen of being exposed to violence vs. vulgar language summed up so wonderfully by Kyle and the movie's end: "See Mom, in the end it was Cartman's filthy f**king mouth that saved us all..." Also even if your friend's Mom is a b**ch, you probably shouldn't sing about it on the playground, no matter how funny your song is. Get it, watch it and watch it again and again. You'll love it if you have the capacity to understand it.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Shocking at first... gets better every time you watch it!
Review: This is pretty much the funniest movie I have ever seen! My sister and I watch it almost religiously... at least once a week. The songs in this side-splitting movie are catchier than most music out today!(and a lot better, for that matter!) One suggestion: watch the movie before you buy... it may be too much for you to handle.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A lot of fun!
Review: This show is definately not for the easily offended- But it is an absolute riot for the rest of us. This is a great one to get when you want to have a good laugh without trying to figure out a complex plot. Just remember to put the kids to bed first!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: COME INTO SOUTH PARK AND GET SOME LOVE IN CHEF'S WORLD
Review: Even though this movies was quite grusome I exstermley enjoied it. I know, I know it cut-up races but it didn't all focus on one race. It sure didn't stop me from laughing! Once You Enter the south park world you won't want to come out, or that's how I felt when The movie was over. THIS IS DEFENITLY A CLASSIC AND DEFFENCLY A KEEPER. Quite from movie, ''You and me and her and she simultaneus ...... me, baby one, two, three!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Of course it's 5-star, but where do we go from here?
Review: Of course the movie is great, the tunes are catchy the characters are hilarous. And I show it to my 7-year old son with no restraint - he does not understand English yet and just enjoys the songs and happenings.

I was disgusted just once - when this bloody sausage sprung from inside the Saddams blanket. What was the reason for this? It's not very funny and even amidst all this cartoon violence, profanities and gore this episode is unnecessary and embarassing. I suppose the creators just got carried away by the overall mood of the movie.

My favourite scenes are Brooke Shields fart confession, the general's unwillingness to disclose any knowledge of Emancipation Proclamation - he considers it pure hip-hop! Also I liked the idea of Baldwins living together with the same phone number - just different extensions. I share the common admiration of the hit songs and episodes but these are my special little gems.

So it's good, very good. The only thing that bothering me now is that there are many - perhaps too many - cartoons exploiting the image of swearing young vandals. Beavis & Butthead, Rugrats(both of them are also represented by quite successful full-lenght features), Simpsons - and now South Park. This is mostly a parody but parody can not prevail over the norm. It's just a way to deal with common stuff, to make a fun of it and take it with the grain of salt. But now we have much more than a grain. Just remember how funny were the Naked Gun movies and what a garbage are Leslie Nielsen's last efforts. The jokes are seemingly in the same vein but how stale they became!

South Park is a peak achievement and I am afraid the only road from here is downslope. Hope I am wrong. Let's see.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A movie for those who don't take life so darn seriously!
Review: I have been an avid fan of the show South Park for some time now. When I first heard that a movie version was coming out I was ecstatic. This movie was sheer pleasure for the retinas! One should approach this movie with an open mind, a rather LARGE sense of humor, and the need to banish whatever stick you may have up your sphincter muscle. This is NOT a movie for ONLY locker room finks, as one "intellectual" from duckberg, scumberg, or something of the sort would say. This is a masterpiece. The one who may find himself/herself limiting themselves to obscure dribble on a constant basis may very well one day find themselves hung by the noose of deceit. Lighten up, put those ole' Felinni movies aside, as well as your preconceived ideas of "intellectual stability" and kick back and enjoy a piece of film that will live on in infamy!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: thank god we live in this quiet, little,......mountain town!
Review: south park the movie is an extremely funny parody of itself which is chock full of swearing and suggestive references. this is definitely NOT for your kids, sorry. but if you have a good, nondescriminating sense of humour, you'll love this movie.
