Not up to par as an entertaining cartoon film on the big screen, but good for a rental.

Rating: 3/10 (28 July 2007)

I've finally been able to agree with a friend, whom sees movies in a totally different frame of mind as myself, this was a shocker. Usually, his tastes in comedy and situations drastically differ from mine. We had both agreed that the film wasn't up to par and just a strung out version of a regular television episode.
Needless to say, driving away from the theater, we had a conclusive bitch-session about the movie being very slow paced and excessive plays on old clichés, general idiocy, the Muntz mock, and defunct family units. There was an abundance of dry filler that dragged down the film even more to the point of wondering if one was able to count a few sheep without falling into a deep sleep. I must admit that I chuckled the odd time, but it wasn't enough to be pleased and leave feeling satisfied with the price of admission.
I witnessed that a lot of people typed out that this film was a knee-slapping, barnyard circle dance of a movie, but I thought otherwise. My friend laughs at the most silliest things and is immature by nature, but he also thought the film wasn't good. I'm more of a reserved person, but I concluded that my comments be based upon his final outlook and I couldn't be any less in agreement.
I suppose we both have outgrown 'The Simpsons' family nest and it's about due time. I surely won't miss the gratuitous violence, bullying, typically decrepit family values, and general nonsense. Yeah, it will be the last time I watch 'South Park' as well. Silly rabbits, these darkly sprinkled television cartoons are not for kids and growing tiresome for some adults.
