Profanity at It's Finest and Humor and It's Brilliance

Rating: 8/10 (27 July 2007)

I'm not one for vulgarity or profanity but this film truly made me laugh my ass off. The profanity and the almost constant swearing really make this movie worth a lot of laughs and amusement. The storyline follows the four friends as they see a vile Canadian film (Terrance & Phillip: Asses of Fire) and they start using various swears and insults that were used in the film. It comes to a boiling point were they push Kyle's mom to the point of raging war, literally, on Canada.
There are several things that make this work. First, the obvious, classic style in which the cartoon is presented, only this time bigger, longer and uncut. Second, they turned the profanity into a show stopping musical. Who but Trey and Matt could take the counselor's catch phrase *m'kay * into a musical number, or even the *Viva Le Revolution* song. The swearing and the insults are so overdone and completely unnecessary it's funny, just funny, the whole "raging war on Canada," something that is completely random but not too distant. There are points within the movie were, if it weren't for the cartoon feel, it could have been a serious drama or horror.
Also, they took the old cut-out felt and reworked it into more detailed backgrounds and the use of computer generated backgrounds and creaters. The fact that Americans consider anything that happens to celebrities a National Tragedy such as, in the movie, Canada bombs the Baldwin Brothers and the Nation is in shock. The relationships that the characters have with each other are priceless. The homosexual relation that Satan and Saddam have is hysterical and the "kid-next-door-love" that Stan has for Wendy is something we can all relate to. The songs, I can't stop bragging about, are very intoxicating. For example: "Blame Canada," "Mountain Town," "Hell Isn't Good," "What Would Brian Boitano Do?" and "La Resistance."
The satire is priceless. That is pretty much the whole movie, satire piled on satire, but what also makes this movie is that, like every other South Park episode, there is a theme that everyone can learn from. It teaches real-life lessons that kids and adults can learn from, however, the kids can learn it from someplace else. I recommend this movie to those who seek brilliant humor and potty humor, but those who are too uptight for this movie, stay way from it. I enjoyed it immensity and I don't usually go for movies like this.
