Team America: World Police... BWAH!
Team America: World Police had a preview showing at the mall last night, and at $8.50 for the ticket, it's the cheapest bag of crack I ever smoked.

This isn't a movie for the easily, or even medium-difficulty-offended. It's not mature, it doesn't play nice, and it makes Crank Yankers look like Sesame Street. The things they do with liberal celebrities are pretty terrible, and it's not exactly ethnically sensitive.

That said, it was the hardest I've laughed in years. Absolutely hilarious. I can recap the most funny moment, but I'll add some spoiler space if you don't want to see them.

If you can enjoy a good hard ribbing and can just sit back and laugh at some wildly immature humor, you can enjoy Team America: World Police. It's Parker/Stone humor at its "finest" (read: most wildly inappropriate.)

The best/most horrible parts of the movie:

***SORT-OF-SPOILER-SPACE!***

















-The hit songs "Everybody has AIDS" and "America! (Fuck Yeah!)"

-The marionette sex scene. They took out a puppet giving oral sex but a movie with THIS doesn't warrant an NC-17 rating?!

-Matt Damon! (No, he doesn't provide a voice in this movie. Still, hilarious)

-Kim Jong Il with an Elmer Fudd "Engrish" accent singing "I'm So Lonely"

-The fact that, even with glorified Barbie dolls on strings, they managed to make it REALLY gory.

1. I saw it last night
It was pretty funny. I don't think I have ever seen puppets used so well.
And the set design and art work was pretty amazing.

Be warned, It will have something in it to offend anyone.
I don't know if I will want to see it again, but it did make me laugh.
