10 years too late, and the wait, not really worth it.

Rating: 6/10 (4 August 2007)

An absolutely average movie. There isn't really a lot about this to say except it had few chuckles and many gags that just don't belong in a movie. Half of the gimmicks/jokes aren't barley even worth a regular episode on the show, let alone having to pay 10 bucks to see what was done better the first few years of the show. Overall I give it a little better than a 2 stars, but not worth more than that. For the die-hard fans (meaning those that still watch the show now) I'm sure they will love it. For those that stopped watching it 10 years ago, we'll just think it was a decent longer episode of the glory years of the show. For those that don't watch "The Simpsons" at all, well they will chuckle a little bit, but they won't think much about it. All the good reviews are sort of hard to stomach, because the film really isn't that good on it's on merits. I won't say the film is bad, but c'mon now people it's not really that good either! Right now it's ranked here on IMDb as one of the TOP 250 ever. I am hoping that as people calm down after waiting 19 years to see this (A big reason why it's rating is so high) film, they will go back and see the film isn't really all that terrific. I will say that the marketing of this film is some of the best I have ever seen though.
