I love the Simpsons. In 17 years, I can think of maybe 3 episodes I didn't really care for, and they were still funny. So I was totally excited this movie came out, and even more so because they kept the same crew who write the episodes, and didn't ruin it be bringing in oursiders.
My friend also saw it, and said that he was disappointed, because it was like watching a long episode. To me, that was the best part.
It follows the basic pattern. Homer doesn't listen, Homer does something half ass, Homer puts everyone in danger, Homer tries to right things.
There really is nothing new, but since it's a movie, they can do things that they can't on a TV show. The subtle jokes that are too adult for TV, and the young chilluns who watch it, and you get to hear Marge say "God Damn IT". Awesome
I admit, I'm biased, and I've been waiting for this movie for years.
I won't ruin it with details, but if you're a Simpson's fan, go see it. If you're not, you probably won't like it.
I give it a 10 out of 10.
