Wonderful Movie

Rating: Null/10 (27 July 2007)

The actual plot does not involve Homer dumping waste from the Nuclear Power Plant into the lake, losing his job, forcing the evacuation of Springfield. If you go see the movie, you will see Springfield on the verge of an environmental catastrophe. Homer then, as usual, forgets to pay attention and adds "the hair that broke the camel's back." After the environmental meltdown, Springfield is covered with a huge dome (which is visible in the trailer countless times). The rest of the movie is Springfield dealing with being enclosed, the usual Simpsons' side trips and humor, and Homer trying to redeem himself in the eyes of Springfield and, more importantly, in family's eyes. All in all, I'd say if you like the TV show, then the movie will be right up your alley. It is an over-sized doze of what I love to see. But it doesn't try to carry on for two and a half hours like most blockbusters today. 8/10 stars.
