Possibly the greatest musical ever made

Rating: 10/10 (9 December 2008)

While the musical genre is bogged down by "classics" such as West Side Story, and The Sound of Music, or pop contemporary music video pieces of garbage like Chicago and Across the Universe, South Park remains to be one of most poignant satirical musicals ever made. South Park creates a world of absurdity that reflects the absurdity of real life. Due to the animation quality the choreography of the characters is easily manipulated and we see these crude characters both in style and language dance across this epic landscape of morality. An obvious satire of both the religious right and the liberal left South Park delivers on its promises to upset disgust and outright cry with laughter. Such classics as "Uncle Fu""er" make me cry with laughter even after a few years. This movie celebrates the ability to manipulate people through music. This manipulation is never used in the classical sense but used to celebrate the fact that people will listen more closely if a scene is composed through music. This archaic storytelling device works very well in terms of an animated comedy. Since we are already in the realm of the unreal, why not sing dance and fart your through the course of it?
