too much, too self-indulgent, too bad

Rating: Null/10 (13 September 1999)

I am still a South Park fan. There, I said it and I'm glad. Still, this is one of the worst tv to movie adaptations since "The Little Rascals." What makes the show funny is that feeling that you're getting away with something, that something has been slipped in past the censors, or that the line has somehow been crossed in a way that those in charge didn't notice. Without having a line to cross, the thrill is simply gone. Nonstop obscenities and tacky humor simply aren't funny in a forum where anything goes. Add this with the heavy-handed blasts on the MPAA, the movie is little more than Trey and Matt's personal propoganda film at the expense of everyone else's enjoyment. The fans deserved much better.
