Quite a let down, if you ask me

Rating: 2/10 (8 August 2007)

Let me start by saying that I was a kid who's parents turned off The Simpsons if they ever caught me watching it, because they thought it would teach me by bad example. Now, in my mid 20's, I have been buying up all the seasons as they come out.
This movie, makes me reconsider my parents prejudice towards the show. There is one particular scene that shows the naked genital area of Bart while streaking on his skateboard. That along with half a dozen other distasteful scenes makes me lose interest in all things Simpson. I'll sell the DVDs on some online auction site and ignore the new episodes when they come out.
That is not the only reason I though the film was a waste of 2 hours. The storyline was well thought out, but the scenes just lacked all the traditional Simpson feel that I have come to enjoy.
Where were all the barely-noticeable political and pop-culture quips that are the staple of the show.
Rather than an idiotic scene of Homer and Marge being assisted with their physical relationship by a horde of woodland creatures, why not show a kiss and a fade off? I will give the writers and actors the benefit of saying that there were a small handful of humorous moments. Those moments, however, are a featherweight compared to the proverbial anvil of stench with which this movie wreaked.
