FIRST 20 MINUTES WERE GREAT (the length of a regular episode)

Rating: 6/10 (1 August 2007)

I wanted this movie to be great because I hoped for a lot of corporate bashing. This movie showed evil polluters, trigger happy cops, lying government, etc., Not a lot of corporate bashing unfortunately.
The first 20 minutes of this movie were great. After 20 minutes, it started to show some serious cracks as prototypical Simpson's bits became tiresome. After 40 minutes it became so boring that I stopped watching it and did some chores as I listened to it in the background.
Overall, this movie was ruined by the fact that the Simpson's creators and writers have run out of materials after a decade of writing. This movie should have been released 7 years ago, by which, they could have released 2 or 3 sequels. They know they missed out on a grand movie franchise opportunity and now they are feeling lucky this movie has been the biggest movie of the Summer, 2007.
All in all, it is still worth watching but beware the corporate messages placed in the story - people ruining the environment (not corporations), evil G.O.'s, etc. ,
