Totally awesome!

The Simpsons Movie delivers on every count and is thoroughly engaging from start to finish. Best of all, my arse did not get numb as it was only 82 minutes long. Some critics have said that it seems like four episodes tacked together but you gotta hand it to them, the Simpsons creators have crafted what could easily be four of the best episodes ever. After viewing the movie it becomes clear that more risks are being taken and the characters are having fun doing things that you wouldn't normally see on TV. I guess the Simpsons formula has become a game of 'Let's see how long we can keep it going before is gets boring' which, I can say with all honesty, seems a long way off. This is as fresh and original as it ever was.
I envy Matt G's huge bulging wallet! ***** out of *****
