    Well it's January 14 in the U.K so Im guessing it's the same date here. It's brilliant by the way. Fans of Matt and Trey will love it!

    Really dissapointing tbh.

    Only about 2 "laugh out loud" bits.

    I can see why some people don't like it.
    Don't go into it expecting a political satire.
    It's a film that rips on the action genre and celebrities up their own arse.

    Trey Parker and Matt Stone are a pair of Libertarian, Republican-supporting, Bush lovers. There is no way in hell I will pay to see their unfunny potshots at people genuinely trying to make a difference.

    Agent Orange, its a film, its funny, dont look into it.
    And its is a bloody funyn film that that, the songs in it are legendary, particularly the one about Pearl Harbour, and the drunk guy on about d*cks p*ssies and a*sholes was priceless too.

    They have stated publicly that George Bush is an Idiot so I don't think they are Bush Lovers. They say that people think you have to love either Bush or Michael
    Moore but they don't like 'em both.

    Didn't like it that much. Definantly not as funny as 'South Park: Bigger, Longer And Uncut', in my opinion anyways!

    A couple of funny moments though: particularly "MATT DAMON" and the "Like Ben Affleck Needs Acting Lessons" song.

    It's not terrible though... just don't go expecting another "South Park" movie.

    I've been looking forward to this for a few months now. I showed my friend the trailer and now he's like, "When's Team America coming out!? When's Team America coming out!? When's Team America coming out!!!!!!!!!!?" It's kinda annoying.

    Anyway, I'll be going Friday week. :D

    In Team America, they paint Michael Moore in a bad light and make him look like an idiot, but surely this is acceptable, given that that this is exactly what he has done in his last few books and documovies? Oh and I'm a Moore proponent and very much anti-Bush..

    lol, you know, if parker and stone were europeans, they would be hailed as satirical kings, and up there with the likes of Chris Morris or Rory Bremnar.

    They are liberal comedians who understand the point of true satirical comedy - no one is safe, there are no sacred cows, especially self-publicising shock-journos with delusions of being some messianic character.

    lol, parker and stone republicans; that's hilarious. that truely is. I think Michael Moore's the worst thing to happen liberlism in America in years; I guess tht makes me republican bushlover.

    You can see the uncut version of this scene (without sound) here. There are at least 3/4 shots that aren't in the theatrical cut.

    worth a look alright. not as good as southpark the movie tho but good in it's own way. The song when TA go on a mission is classic, as is the aids song. rofl.

    I thought it was excellent, very well done, i love the way the puppets walk really crappy, and all the action movie clichés, such as the hand-to-hand fighting in paris.

    The songs were great, and i didn't think there were very many really.

    I did prefer southpark B.L.U.
