I loved it!

Rating: 10/10 (11 August 2007)

I've watched "The Simpsons" for nearly a decade and in that time, I always wondered whether they'd make a Simpsons movie like its competing shows "South Park" and "Family Guy". As a Simpsons fan, I was deeply satisfied with "The Simpsons Movie".
As always, Homer makes a stupid mistake that puts the town Springfield in a crisis. This time, he pollutes the town's water supply with a silo of "Pig Crap", which leads the EPA with the option by President Schwarzenegger (which was a laugh riot) to encase the town with a gigantic dome. Once again, Homer and his family must stop the EPA from destroying Springfield before it is too late.
Homer is a true Homer in this supported with his sight gags, one-liners, and obvious, laughable stupidity. All the other characters, including: Bart, Lisa, Marge, Maggie, Itchy & Scratchy, Moe, and Flanders (to name a few) were all their typical selves.
The plot was a bit on the corny side, but it flowed and was not as hokey as it could have been. The hour and a half film flew by with no slow spots.
But to a disappointment, the movie only focused on a few of "The Simpsons" characters, mainly on Homer and his family. It did have all the characters, yes, but they didn't have a lot of screen time. I was really looking forward to more of Mr. Burns, Smithers, Apu, etc. as well as more of their comic genius. Otherwise, as a Simpsons fan, I loved it! 10/10
