Very funny... Very crude

Rating: 9/10 (31 July 2009)

First off I must warn anybody thinking of watching this film, it contains quite a lot of material that many people would find offensive... that said if you aren't offended you will probably be in hysterics as it is very funny. If you are familiar with the television series you will be familiar with the crude style of the animation, although if you have only seen the later episodes this may seem cruder.
The film starts with the four boys going to the cinema to watch the "Terrance and Philip" movie, an R-rated film from Canada. Unlike their television programme their film is full of swearing and when the boys come out they are all swearing like troopers. Soon all the children in South Park seem to have seen it and are swearing in class. When their mother's are told Kyle's mother decides that something must be done and that something is to arrest Terrance and Philip and begin hostilities against Canada. While this is going on Kenny has more serious problems; after copying a stunt from the film he dies and ends up in Hell where he learns that if the US goes ahead with its plans to execute Terrance and Philip Satan and his gay lover, Saddam Hussein, will take over the world.
Unlike the television series this film is a musical; the songs are actually rather good, not just the comedy lyrics, they have good tunes too. The comedy isn't only crude it is also a fairly biting satire about censorship in the US where a few naughty words are considered more offensive than acts of violence.
I'd recommend this film to any adult who isn't easily offended and likes a good laugh, just don't assume that because it is animated it must be suitable for children; Disney this is not.
