It's just okay

Rating: 7/10 (17 August 2007)

The Simpsons just aren't what they used to be. The Simpsons Movie is a strong effort for the franchise as of late, in that it was often funny, but it's still missing the depth of the classic seasons. That, and Mr. Burns, who should have been the main villain but was reduced to a cameo- one of the greatest villains of animation brushed to the side when he had his greatest chance to shine.
Some jokes- Homer stuck between a rock and a hard place for example, seem Simpsonish. But the movie as a whole didn't have much of a point, unless you've been faced with the dilemma of living inside a giant dome and you've got to destroy it, and what about the environmental problem posed earlier in the movie? No solid conclusions, solutions or coherent plot needed, just laugh, please.
And, for the record, Spider-Pig was not that bad.
