Disappointing

Rating: 6/10 (26 November 1999)

I was all set to be blown away by outrageous South Park humor.
So much for expectations.
I have 3 gripes with the film:
1) Spouting profanities through the entire movie will not shock anybody who is familiar with the series. Ultimately the profanity gets real boring. It had a dulling effect.
2) 1 or 2 musical numbers would have been campy fun. By the 3rd and 4th songs I was squirming in my seat. Can you say tedious? And much of the songs were rather forced.
3) Biggest complaint....over-the-top on the gay-bashing. I do no want political correctness and have no problem with the way gays are treated in the TV series. But the Satan/Saddaam sodomy scenario, not to mention the use of the word 'faggot' in casual conversation was extremely annoying. And Big Gay Al was just part of the evil townsfolk, a relative non-entity.
Again, disappointing. There was a chuckle or 2, but not enough to justify the price of admission.
