Could have been much better

Rating: Null/10 (28 November 2000)

I'm a pretty big fan of the South Park television show. It has to be the funniest thing on television mainly because of it's shear honesty. I got so excited about the movie, and while I did like the movie, I know this is not the best Try Parker and Matt Stone could do.
Well, the language isn't as offensive as some people make it out to be. But, the movie really lacks the edge that the show has. The movie over uses songs, uses tired language gags, and focuses too much on the story. Seriously, I think they did TOO good of a job being emotion, characters, and plot to the screen. This is South Park man. They should focus on all of that, but try and be funny too.
I mentioned the over use of song. Well, that's problem number 2. There are too many songs. I know that SP frequently uses songs in the show, and I like that. Some songs are funny. But this is so close to being a musical. Really close.
But, the movie can be hilarious. The jokes are so good infact, I wouldn't dream of ruining them here. But, as many loyal fans know, this could have been better had Trey and Matt not pushed it so far. The whole Gay Al bit is just sick. I can handel the Saddam dildo scene, but that Gay Al thing is just sick.
So, I'm not going to rate this movie. Why? I'm too conflicted. The show is worthy of a ten out of ten. the movie is still conflicting me. If your a mature adult who has never even thought about watching a show, you might not like this. It is a good movie though, so if you casually watch South Park, but haven't seen the movie, see this. Like I said, it could have better. But, it still good.there is good stuff here. Like all South Park, it is terribly honest (in a good way).
Oh, by the way, the mole is the man! Viva La Resistance!
