Very, very funny

Rating: 10/10 (9 October 2001)

I laughed as much the second time I watched this film, as I did when I watched it the first time. I had missed so many jokes the first time round as I was trying my best to control myself from vomitting with the giggles. This is a very funny movie. For the people who will watch it and tut, or turn off, or merely be morally outraged by 8 year olds swearing and farting and generally being rude and abusive to anyone they want including each other, then either a) don't watch it again and shut up so the rest of us can enjoy it, or b) get a sense of humour. I am not blinkered enough to realise that this film will not appeal to all whom by it is viewed. But at least I have enough of an open mind to admit that. For people who would brand this movie a disgrace (and I have heard a few), please don't be so self-consciously narrow minded as to ignore the fact that it brings pleasure to many others. If I understand the film, of which I do to a basic level at least, it was not designed to be serious, realistic or politically hard hitting. What isn't funny about a foul mouthed boy getting a chip implanted in his brain which shocks him everytime he swears, which he did often due to a movie he had recently watched, which had pretty much directly resulted in one of his best friends burning himself to death (almost) to try to win $100 of said boy? Comic scenario or what. AND ALL A BIT OF FUN. Thank you Trey and Matt, but the hard part is trying to eclipse it in South Park: Even Bigger, Even Longer and Still Uncut. Or at least doing another to make me laugh again and you a few million bucks more, I am looking forward to it.
