Yellow magic

Rating: 9/10 (5 February 2008)

It's always possible that a film version of a half hour program is going to disappoint. How could you ever doubt the Simpsons, however. The quality of writing is tremendous and this film sustains the ridiculously high standard throughout. The key to how any film has been enjoyed is often the amount of time it feels like it took to watch. Well, in one respect this felt like it took five minutes whilst in another they seemed to pack in enough for three films. Both are high praise.
The jokes are non-stop even if you may have to be a Simpsons fan to get many of them. There is some plot but that doesn't spoil the show! And if you could pick a couple of highlights from among so many, then the nude skateboarding scene and the spider pig scene are gold-dust!
