The Simpsons Movie

About this movie

It takes a feature-length film to fully capture Homer Simpson's epic stupidity. After 18 seasons, 400 episodes, and 23 Emmys, The Simpsons has become a feature-length motion picture based on the hit TV series. In the eagerly-awaited film, Homer must save the world from a catastrophe he himself created. It all begins with Homer, his new pet pig, and a leaky silo full of droppings - a combination that triggers a disaster the likes of which Springfield has never experienced. As the fates of Springfield and the world hang in the balance, Homer embarks on a personal odyssey of redemption - seeking forgiveness from Marge, the reunion of his splintered family, and the salvation of his hometown.

Ratings and reviews

This movie is way funnier than the seasons of its time (ie tv seasons 9+), and still falls waaay short of the pre futurama simpsons seasons era (ie seasons 1 to 8). So, as someone who grew up on the tv show, to me the movie represents a reminder of the sudden collapse of the best tv comedy EVER to just another cerebellum sitcom for the masses. Like star wars' jaja binx to the c3p0.

The simpsons is great in 30 minute episodes but gets quite boring after that. Simpsons movie is too over the top but not the worst movie I've ever seen

There are more jokes in here than an entire (poor) Simpson's series! Loved every minute. My only complaint is it wasn't 10-15min longer :)
