It took 20 years for the most famous television family to finally make the jump to the big screen. This is a good movie and if you are a fan of the television show you will not be disappointed at all. Everyone of the Springfield characters we have come to love and adore has something to do in the film. Homer is at his best, as is Grandpa and Bart. The celebrities are all over the place from Tom Hanks to Greenday and the pacing is good- It just feels like an extended episode. The Simpsons are often said to have jumped the shark some time ago but this film is a healthy reminder that it is still an incredibly witty show with great writers.

I found the simpsons movie so funny. I liked all the scenes in the movie. I liked all the characters. They were so well drawn. I can really recommend this movie if you are looking for a cheap laugh or if you are just in mood for a movie that you can relax. At least I really enjoyed this movie!
The Movie Diorama
I'm not a massive fan of TV shows turning into movies, most of the time they are just chancing their luck and trying to earn some quick dollar. Only a select few that have garnered a following or popular fan base deserve the big screen treatment. The Simpsons is one of them. In this ninety minute episode, residents of Springfield have been the biggest contributor to environmental pollution. The government take action and seal them off in a giant dome, before eventually wanting to blow the city up. It's up to the Simpsons to save the city. If you aren't a fan of the series, then you shouldn't be watching this...it's not going to change your opinion. It really is just a longer episode with a heightened scale of grandeur, improved fluid animation and a variety of different jokes. If you are like me and enjoy the series, then you'll be sure to come away from this feeling entertained. Plenty of pop culture references from a pig dressing up as famous characters (Spider-Pig and Harry Plopper...) to Green Day dissolving in an acidic lake. It's what The Simpsons is famous for, consistently humorous references injected with a quick witted script to appeal to all audiences. We've got lines of dialogue that joke about race, homosexuality, age...they've pretty much covered all the bases. It's obviously nothing crude, adhering to the tame nature of the TV series. A bountiful of past Springfield residents get plenty of screen time. There is always something amusing about Ned Flanders, and he does have the most quotable line. "Thank you lord for this bountiful PENIS!?". The plot moves along speedily, perhaps too fast in certain areas and does delve into issues about marriage which are unfortunately shrouded by the main story. The humour does grow tiresome by the end and my smile slowly melted away. However, this is a delightful watch. It's not going to set the cinematic world on fire, but it's good enough to pass the time.
