WORST. SIMPSONS MOVIE. EVER.

IT'S NOT THAT IT WASN'T FUNNY, WHICH IS WAS, IT'S THAT IT WASN'T GOOD. Well, no, to be fair it was fine. It just wasn't good. The story was ok, not bad at all. And it's not that it was stretched out, it's that it wasn't deep enough. There was no real depth to the storyline. It was developed fine, it all made sense, but nothing was developed properly.

As you'd expect all the jokes centre around Homer being stupid. Which is fine as a surface level joke, but there wasn't any truly genius jokes involving references to other films (like the epidsode with Marge in A Street Car Named Desire references Citizen Kane) OR any funny signs (like Hairy Shearers barber). Generally it wasn't up to the standards of seasons 4-8, as expected. It was however a lot better than most of the newer episodes... There was a single overall storyline at least.

And none of the other characters outside the family, with the exception of Flanders, said more and a single line. And I'm suprised on how many celebrities WEREN'T in it. Tom Hanks has a funny line though.

My rating is either: ★ if you expected a lot, or ★★★ if you expected crap.
