THE most brilliant satire of American culture to ever hit the SCREEN. I am going to praise this film highly in this review so I wish to stress that there is one animated show to which it cannot, willl not, and does not hold a candle. I am talking about The Simpsons. The Simpsons is a mass parody of American culture that succeeds independently of media attention and long after the death of Bartmania. That said this is a funny movie. Being from a small town in Arkansas, the song Uncle F***er was a shocker and a great release for me. In fact the heart of the movie is its unmasking of the insane obsession Americans have with cursing. The characters in the film favor inflicting pain on children, starting a war, kidnapping, demagogory, and commiting murder as long as the people who get hurt were using dirty words. That is what is known as embarrassingly and frighteningly misplaced priorities. This film teaches three lessons America must learn. 1). There are NO BAD WORDS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! There are only bad thoughts and bad intentions. Words themselves are innocent whereas people are not. 2). Violence is worse than anything, including sex and "bad language". 3). The only ones who usually don't get blamed for the corruption of children are their parents and that is insane. The point of this film is not fart jokes but rather that we are offended by them so.
