The Simpsons Movie Mini Review Page

This document is unfinished.
—————————————————————————————————————-

And finally it has been done!

After 18 years of making the show on television, The Simpsons Movie hit the theaters 27.07.2007.

I watched the movie first time at Finnkino’s theater 27.07.2007, local time 1530 PM.

My thoughts

Homer and Marge and their marriage. While this has been dealt in the series also – it goes deeper this time. Homer’s actions against the town are too much for Marge. Scenes we’re very well executed and felt real. Well, been a fan of the show from Ullman years, yellow family has sort of grown to me and when Marge leaves Homer, it felt disaster in my mind.

Bart also has his own kind of troubles this time. Bart finds a new “dad” from neighbour. I was bit blown away first to see him going in the wings of angel, Ned, and whole “i need real Dad” scenery felt more like scenes written for Nelson than Bart. But… there we’re some good parts where Bart showed his true image by dissing Rod and Todd for starters. Kind of different what i used to see from television. Hmmm.

Lisa is Lisa. I think she is more funny or that kind of feel i got from her. Although, she had big role as an activist (as usual), it would have been disaster to end it just there. Scenes with new boyfriend, Colin we’re great, expressions we’re excellent. I really like his part on the Movie!

Maggie speaks! A word die-hard fans would love to hear. Scenes with bottle and other minor ones we’re hilarious. I kind of got a feel she was older and wiser than the television version but it might just be me who thinks this way.

It was almost what i expected to be. In my opinion whole movie was very touchy. It involves lots of scenes between Marge and Homer. It is more Homer-centered but he had the main role on the movie anyway. Whole dome thing is just great. As absurd it is – it was almost like taken from real life situation. Great writing.

Opening sequence with Itchy & Scratchy we’re beautiful. Absolutely loved. And how the actual plot of the movie was run in was great. Mobile phones taking video, CBG on the crowd (hah hah), Green Day sinking like Titanic… Aaaah!

And what’s even better- it’s was not musical.

On scale 1-5, i give 4,5/5. Now, waiting to see it second time and of course dreaming of DVD-release which would be in 2008.

Best gag in the movie

Smithers: “They’ve taken eveything, Sir.”
Burns: “Smithers, I’ve been thinking about suicide… if you wanted to try it, it might cheer me up to watch…”

(Bart Skateboards by Naked)
Ralph: “I like Men now!”

Quimby: “I declare a State of Emergency. Code Black!”
Lenny: “Black!? That’s the worst colour there is!… no offence, Carl.”
Carl: “I get it all the time.”

Errors?

Like anyone notice Moe’s Tavern was Moe’s Bar, in the movie. I thought that was a little odd. – thrill house

Reviews

JimmyC

For starters, I guess I better address my primary concern with the movie going into it. I, like many, thought that it could have been an extended version of a season 18 episode. It’s probably best to start off by saying that above all else, it was far, far better than any other season 18 episode. It’s probably also important to note that unlike my grades when I’m considering season 18 episodes, this score is relative to the entire show. This is a B, relative to every episode that ever aired. I guess that’s saying some pretty good things about the movie.

Anyway, I’m gibbering. The humour, as I said, was the main concern for nearly everyone I guess. It was actually pretty good. My friend said after the movie that he didn’t find it as funny as he thought it was going to be. I kinda agree, but I didn’t find it a problem. I mean, yeah, I wasn’t kicking myself laughing out loud at every moment, but then again, I wasn’t really expecting to. It sounds cliched, but it was highly obvious that the movie was appealing to everyone that was going to be in the audience, rather than in, say, Bart Gets and Elephant where it’s kinda aimed to a specific audience. There were adult jokes, kids jokes, teenage jokes and a whole bunch of in-jokes, awkward jokes and meta-jokes that would satisfy everyone.

The joke writing, I best mention, was actually really quite good. There were NO extended jokes ala’ the rake scene, everything was in the rapid-fire format, the jokes were coming in thick and fast, for everyone. So yes, while that means that one of my friends (the dissapointed one) went through phases of not laughing at things, there were always people in the audience laughing at what was going on. I thought that was a good indication of the quality of joke writing. Also on the subject of joke-writing, is that character protrayals weren’t really sacrificed for the sake of jokes. While I don’t really have a problem with the use of meaner charatcerisations for the sake of a laugh, I only don’t have a problem so long as the style isn’t overused. For the most part, the humour was acheived without having, say, Homer lying on the ground saying “baby made a boom-boom.”

I guess I gotta also mention the big one – ‘jerkass Homer’. Was he there? In places, but that’s fantastic. It, and everything else in the movie (angry Marge, religious Flanders etc.) was used in a perfectly moderated fashion, once again appealing to everyone without really offending people. The pain gags were another fear of everyones I guess, and once more (beggining to sound like a broken record), they were used in moderation. Actually, the more I think about it the more I realise just how well moderated the movie was. Meta-jokes and sight gags were there, but weren’t there enough, IMO.

To summarise the humour, I found it funny, and that’s the main thing. Furthermore, it became clear that everyone else in the cinema found the movie funny, even if it didn’t live up to the impossible expectations of being the best Simpsons episode ever. Favourite joke? I was the only one in the cinema who laughed at it, surprisingly, but…

Bart: Did you guys hear something?
Lisa: It was probably just a moth
Marge: I hope it’s ok.

Lol. It was the weirdest, random and yet completely satisfying joke I’d heard on The Simpsons in years. Totally offbeat. I loved it. Martin’s revenge was great too. Least favourite? Probably the very first joke (“especially you!”), or the advertisement ticker down the bottom. Both fell fairly flat.

I won’t spend long on this point, but I want to mention characterisations. They were all superb, unless you’ve got a problem with Homer acting in his jerkassy way (then again, Homer is a jerk by nature, so shuttup). Flanders struck an awesome balance between religious-zealot and nice-guy, Marge was both the sensible, loving mother and wife we knew to always make the best decisions, Lisa was portrayed fairly well as stricken by romance (although maybe a bit under utilised), and Bart being cast as the child looking for a real father figure was quite awesome. In fact, the Bart-Homer-Flanders love triangle was pulled off really well, didn’t take up a lot of time, but carried the movie through quite a bit. I could probably write paragraphs on this, but you know, I’d be repeating myself. Point is that the characters were written very well.

Animation was spectacular, absolutely spectacular. It was brisk, and yet remained super-clear. It was lit beutifully, characters were in perfect form (loved some of the Silverman facial expressions), backgrounds were lavish. It was just beautiful. I cannot fault the animation at all. In my opinion, this was certainly the peak of any animation I’ve ever seen. I loved seeing all the Korean names of the animators too – it was a lovely touch, which I guess was required out of law rather than the producers just being nice guys.

Voice acting was superb too, although some characters still sounded offkey (particularly Martin), but I guess the actors are aging. All the core actors were great.

I’ll stop babbling. My summarised thoughts are thus: It was a good movie. It was funny, it was nice, it was touching, it was beautfiful. In spite of all that, it had expectations with me that it couldn’t really live up to. I give it a B+, which is probably liable to be risen to an A, or A- with time and consideration.

SimplySimps

It was good. It didn’t quite leave me with the exhillirating feeling of ‘whoa, that was awesome!’ like I hoped, but I still enjoyed it quite a bit and will get the DVD. The good: A nice story, pretty epic, brilliant voice acting all round, overall fantastic animation, some good emotion, great music scores, plots intertwined well, nice callbacks to earlier epiosdes, some hilarious moments and good parodies of other movies/satire of current environmental concerns.

The bad: some shockingly bad / stupid jokes, too much physical punishment humour, a few plot holes/loose threads at the end, sorta rushed ending, rushed overall with nice tangents (Lisa’s, Bart’s) but these weren’t quite developed enough, took a while to get into the main story which didn’t really kick in until about 1/3 into the movie.

The first few minutes in, the I&S cartoon and opening aside, I was afraid the movie was going to stink. A lot of forced humour in that church scene, and I couldn’t help but feel the writers were trying to point out the flaws with the characters to people who hadn’t seen the Simpsons before. This resulted in a lot of forced jokes and exaggerated characterisations I wasn’t keen on at all. I did sort of like how the movie set up the little side stories before rushing into the main plot, and this is where most of the humour was for me. Bart thinking Homer was a bad parent, Lisa finding the boy (damn- can’t remember his name!) and Homer’s pig. Oh yeah, and the nude skating sequence was hilarious- everyone was taken by surprise at the quick scene of Bart’s privates, even me! I can see how they avoided a rating over PG with it, too.

I thought the movie progressed in the right direction. There was so many tangents though, a lot felt underdeveloped. I wish we could have seen more of Bart and Ned. I really enjoyed it, the setup was good and each moment was either heartfelt or hilarious. Ned was in top form, really. The writers need to take note of this, I want to see him like this in future episodes. The ending to that was sweet and pretty much perfect. Didn’t end on a stupid gag, and left Ned happy.

Lisa and the boy felt a bit underdeveloped. His character wasn’t explored that much at all, so I think it lost a lot of punch that way. I liked it, and the sweet animation too, but I wish it could have been explored better.

Homer and the pig was funny and sort of cute. I liked how Homer took so well to him, but once it kickstarted the main plot, this story sort of fizzled out with no real conclusion, and there was no sign of the pig at the end, I wish they could have concluded it properly. But it was fun.

The main plot, while it took a while to get into, was funny and progressed well, but peppered with dreadful jokes. I wish Homer caused a nuclear accident, we could have seen more hilarious Burns moments (I loved the later Burnsie scene!) There was lots of stuff I loved, in particular I laughed at the crowd scenes and Homer trying to distract the townsfolk. Their escape was a bit unbelievable, but it was sorta funny (especially the wanted poster part!). There were 2 jokes I really hated here though, Homer’s head stuck and everyone attacking it, and Bart drunk/repeatedly drinking whiskey. The former was an example of a joke that started hilariously (Homer flipping everyone off) but ruined by a completely stupid scene after, and the latter was especially bad- the cinema was almost silent throughout it. I wasn’t so keen at all on Kent’s botox / the guy getting crushed by the dome, Lisa knocking out Bart or the endless Homer-in-pain jokes either.

The second plot (Alaska) was good but maybe felt a bit random.
The disney-like animals, and the avalanche were two things I really liked. Marge’s heartfelt note was the best voice acting from Julie possibly ever. That lifted it above your standard Homer/Marge marriage problems to something else entirely. And the callback to The Way We Was was awesome. I loved ‘To be continued…’ ‘Right away!’ Homer meeting the boob lady was a little bleh, but I liked the dream sequence.
The conclusion was predictible but it was the best way, and I liked it a lot. The suspense worked well. I detested the Dr. Nick joke though, mainly because I could see it coming, but it was worse than I thought. (was he killed?!) Apart from this it was good but could have been all wrapped up just that bit better.

The animation was brilliant, very well drawn, a little rough at times but I think this added to the charm. The voice acting was superb all round.

Overall, I wish those very bad (and some overly extended) jokes had been cut, and more time had been given to the side plots and a slightly longer ending with some of the loose ends tied up, like the Simpsons’ house destroyed, and no sign of Snowball II or Plopper. The Homer pain gags did go to overkill too often, some of these could have been cut too. Good overall though, I did enjoy the movie and I’m glad I saw it. B+

Universal Polymath

Just got back from the midnight premiere. I’m not exactly sure if I can write a definitive review yet, my mind is still spinning. After all of these years of waiting to see the Simpson family on the big screen, the realization of this fantasy was a bit surreal. Every so often throughout the movie, it just flashed across my mind: “I’m at a movie theater and I’m watching The Simpsons”. It’s a winning combination that I’ve been waiting for for well over a decade.

The audience at our premiere was fantastic. Lots of Simpsons shirts and dressing up and enthusiasm. As the movie opened a huge cheer rose from the crowd that I just had to join (and I’m usually not the cheering type). It was huge laughs all the way through, but especially in the rapid-fire opening sequence. The church scene was great, from “American Idiot: Funeral Version” playing, to Homer hoping for Flanders’ homosexuality. And then there was a favorite line of mine: “This Book doesn’t have any answers!” Yes, I had seen that in the trailer a million times but it even still got a good chuckle out of me.

The pain gags weren’t bad at all. The rest of the audience seemed to love each and every one, but I am much more critical of such cheap gags. I can honestly say, though, that not one of them in this movie really bothered me. The worst is the wrecking ball bit, but now seen in the context of the movie, even that wasn’t so bad. And I loved the little conversation going on in the back of the truck: “I think it was a moth”/”Ohh, I hope it’s okay!”
That was really great.

I wasn’t quite as big on the middle section of the movie. It had some great moments, none greater than the animals-undressing Homer and Marge sequence or the tape that Marge left for Homer (but more on that later). This section was still quite funny, and no gags just totally fell flat, it just wasn’t as good. I found myself hoping they would just hurry up and get back to Springfield, to allow them to further interact with the other characters. Oh, and the whole Boob-Lady thing wasn’t nearly as cringe-worthy as I thought it would be, but it wasn’t good. This was probably my least favorite portion of the movie, and I am glad it didn’t last too long. It just felt awkward and out of place. Homer’s dancing was definitely good for a laugh. And I love the version of the Spider-Pig theme that played here, which we would hear again during the credits.

Then the great big finale and the triumphant return to Springfield. The resolution came and went very quickly, but it was ultimately satisfying. I’m really glad Homer and Bart made it over the gorge. When Bart managed to use his slingshot to save himself, I thought for sure Homer would be taking another very familiar tumble down the rocks, and I thought for sure the motorcycle would land on his head this time. I just don’t think I could take seeing that yet again. The wrecked ambulance in the background was an excellent touch; major kudos to the writer that came up with that one. When the ambulance appeared on screen it got a huge laugh and applause. It was a great moment in which I realized I was surrounded by people who truly knew and loved this show as much as me. It was quite refreshing.

Also refreshing: The emotional material was fantastic. There were some truly moving moments, something that has been sorely missed in the past few seasons of the show. Hell, I think this movie out-moved most of the emotional stuff from the classic years, even. The taped-over wedding video moment was incredible, and acted to perfection by Kavner. The scene that immediately followed in which Homer runs out of the house in a panic yelling out the names of his family members was truly heartbreaking. In that moment, Homer felt more real to me than he did in any other scene in the movie. Flanders was also written wonderfully. He was probably my favorite supporting character. The way he treated Bart felt very genuine, as opposed to the caricature of his former self he’s become in the series.

The movie flew by so quickly. I would have loved to see more material for the non-Simpson Sprinfieldians. I would have loved for Mr. Burns to have more to do. And where the hell was Skinner? Or Sideshow Bob? I know this cast is huge and it’s impossible to include everyone, but at a mere 87 minutes, it just feels like they could have done so much more. And I wish there were a lot more little meta-references. Nothing that would really alienate the crowd and come across confusing to those that are less familiar with the series. Just some little nuggets for us die-hard fans. These are my only complaints, and even these aren’t real complaints. The only criticism I have is that they could have added more, but what is already there was really solid. I wouldn’t omit anything, except perhaps the Boob-Lady thing.

I tried as hard as I could to go into this movie expecting it to be terrible, just to avoid disappointment later. Well, that didn’t work, and I instead entered this movie expecting gold. Somehow though, I still wasn’t disappointed. This movie was incredible, and frequently reminded me of the classic years. And no, this is not because the film reminded me of a certain season. It reminded me of the classic years simply because it was funny, humor being an element unfortunately missing from the past few seasons.

Perhaps it is very, very foolish of me to get at all excited about the next season. But how can I not, after such an incredible film? This movie has proven that The Simpsons is still capable of being brilliant.

5/5. No doubt about it, it was totally worth the wait.

Sequel?

Bumblebeeman92

The Simpsons Movie is up there among the greatest animated movies ever made. Hell, I think it’s among the greatest comedies off all time. With Brilliant gags that will have you chuckling for a long while after the film has finished, quotable one-liners and a great plot that is simple but pulled off in an intelligent, witty and “Simpsony” way, The Simpsons Movie is a worthy venture onto the big screen by everyone’s favourite yellow Family.

The film was brilliantly written and executed, with some of the smartest gags that The Simpsons has delivered in years. Examples of such brilliance include the Bargoers swapping places with the Churchgoers as a large glass dome is placed over the town, the notice outside the church reading “We told you so” when Springfield is apparently doomed and, of course, Bart’s already famous “Naked Skateboard Ride”, which will almost certainly go down as one of the greatest animated sequences of all time.
The scene in which Marge tells Homer that she and the Kids are leaving him for good and then revealing that she taped over their wedding video to record the message, is one of the most touching moments that has ever come out of The Simpsons. I seriously had a tear in my eye. The voice acting in this scene was the best we have ever been accustomed to, well, at least for a long time.

Another good point about the film is that all the characters were in character. Two thumbs up for that.

The film reminded me of what a brilliant show The Simpsons once was and why the Hell I am a fan in the first place. Even with my expectations set incredibly high, The Simpsons Movie didn’t dissapoint. Those classic writers have done it again. If only every new episode was written like this…

4.5/5

Although there are slight flaws (lack of much-loved secondaries, length), these aren’t enough to pull down such a brilliant film. Well done to The Simpsons team and, more importantly, thankyou.

J.Re*

The voice work was absolutely great. Sounds like the actors finally got some motivation to be interested in The Simpsons again. Dan Castellaneta and Harry Shearer have been phoning it in for years now.

I went in saying to my girlfriend saying “I hope this doesn’t suck” but really meant “I’ll be devastated if this sucks”. Luckily, The Simpsons Movie did not disappoint me as a fan and a movie has never made me happier (yeah, lame). It was everything I had hoped, at least based on the wackiness of the previews. I was so excited when most of the crazy things in the trailer ended up happening in the first 5 minutes with the Itchy & Scratchy short.

Everything in the first half hour was absolutely hilarious and had everyone in the theater laughing constantly. The line “enough to power Pittsburgh” got some great Simpsons-esque “Hey That’s My Hometown”-Applause.

There was a very noticeable slowing down after that, obviously to make room for some actual plot, one of my only major gripes with the film is how subdued the jokes were in this bit.

Loved the meta-references. The ambulance at the top of Springfield Gorge, the jump itself, Albert Brooks creditted as A.Brooks.

I mean this movie was brilliant and I was so excited that it worked, I could go on and on about the great things, so I’ll TRY to find some bad things.
– Homer’s motorcycle story was weird, but it worked with the story
– At times the family was a bit out of character, except for Lisa who was perfect
– I didn’t really need to see Bart’s penis. It was funny, and pushed the envelope like classic Simpsons, but still kind of weird
– Some of my favorite minor characters needed a bigger role, really could’ve used more Apu and Snake, but thats a constraint of film making I guess

5/5 absolutely no doubt in my mind.

Simpsons Forever

“Saw it just now and I really liked it, actually. I had low expectations and didn’t want it to be a flop, but once I got into the actual cinema and it started, they were suddenly on the big screen and I just thought “Whoa!” The audience were really great, they laughed almost all the way through and really burst out at some gags. Loved the atmosphere, maybe that’s what made it feel better than a Simpsons episode. Plot was pretty straightforward, could’ve seen more of the town overall, but it allowed for dramatic scenes, which, unfortunately just won’t look the same on DVD. Homer and Plopper were fantastic and SLH’s “I did things a dog should never do.” – Brilliant! It would definitely need a re-watch, though, I’m sure there was loads I missed. An improvement on recent seasons, but I wouldn’t say better than the classics.

Can’t think of anything I didn’t like, but I thought it was kind of sad Tom Hanks appeared where Troy McClure should certainly have been. And no Patty, Selma, Sideshow Bob, Kang, Kodos and loads of other characters. Maybe they’re in there somewhere? Disappointed they ended on a Homer pain gag and Maggie speaking at the end could have been used in the actual Movie to much more effect, rather than just “Sequel?” Animation stunning, of course, but I didn’t really see the point of them visiting Alaska, other than just that – to make it look good on-screen. One of my favourite parts was the Homer and Marge scene with the animals – their expressions were absolutely hilarious. Too bad there wasn’t a proper song.

Well, that’s about all I can think of at the moment – I’ll definitely see it again while it’s out.”

Going again today actually, so after the first viewing, I’ll rate it 4.5/5

And Tomacco

That was a surreal experience. Wow. I don’t feel like analysing it til I see it a second time, but here’s some first viewing thoughts:

Praises

– The characterizations were absolutely PERFECT!!
– The best Marge performance since… I couldn’t even say. It has to be at least 10 years, probably even beyond that, maybe EVER. I almost shed a tear during the video scene.
– Bart was phenomenal. The scene in front of the church with Homer and Ned where Bart says “hey, the guy knows me” sums up Homer and Bart’s relationship so well. They have fun together basically, even though Homer can be careless.
– I don’t think a single joke TRULY fell flat. I had least favorite jokes, but I can’t even remember them now.
– There weren’t many completely knee-slapping hilarious moments, but there were TONS of jokes and moments that brought more than chuckles. I feel like repeat viewings will just make the humor richer.
– I’m glad they really refrained from making a million meta-references. They had a great balance with doing one at the start of the movie and then one at the end (Springfield Gorge, with the ambulance).
– The animation and direction was spectacular.

Criticisms

– As cliche as it’s becoming to say this, I wish there were more arbitrary secondary character appearances, notably by Skinner and Burns.
– Lisa’s plot with Colin was truly underdeveloped.
– Some more time on the “life in Alaska” part of the movie could have been nice as well.
– More A. Brooks would have been peachy.
– Homer’s epiphany scene could have been done in a more effective way I thought. Mainly, more interaction with the “boob lady” before entering the fantasy sequence would have made the whole thing seem less arbitrary.

I think that’s all I can come up with.

The Audience

– Since it was a noon show, my theater (which is big with stadium seating) was about half full. Still good. Unfortunately, a woman brought a misbehaving child into the show and the kid was making noise for the first 20 minutes of the movie before people started yelling “SHUT UP!!!” and they left. Otehrwise the audience was great. Applause for a few different bits, laughter throughout, and then you could tell who the die-hards were by who stayed through the opening credits (which was about 55% of the audience).

All in all, despite a couple things I think could have used improvement, this seemed like the most honest and real depiction of the Simpson family in decade. While it may have not always reached the “classic” level of humor (which mind you we might be idealizing a great deal), it was a completely rewarding and totally surreal experience.

4/5 – may change after more viewing
