This movies looks really funny. It’s out tomorrow and I cannot wait to watch it.
It’s deals with current politics and world events in a humourous way and is portrayed using marionettes. I’m sure there will be offensive stuff against Arabs (just a feeling), but I guess that can be expected considering this is by the makers of South Park.
Team America, an international police force dedicated to maintaining global stability, learns that a power hungry dictator is brokering weapons of mass destruction to terrorists. The heroes embark upon a harrowing mission to save the world.
To infiltrate the terrorist network, Team America recruits Gary Johnston, a rising star on Broadway, to go undercover. Although initially reluctant to sacrifice his promising career, Gary realizes that his acting gift is needed for a higher cause.
With the help of Team America leader Spottswoode and his fellow members Chris, Sarah, Lisa and Joe, Gary slips into an arms dealer’s hideout where he discovers that the terrorists’ plot has already begun to unfold.
From the pyramids of Cairo to the Panama Canal and finally to the palace of power-mad dictator Kim Jong Il, Team America criss-crosses the globe on a desperate mission to preserve the very fabric of civilization.
Hilarious movie - They rip on everybody hardcore - that's why they're so great - Micheal Moore's a big boy - he can take it. :D
there were at least 3 parts in the movie where i almost died laughing - the music in the movie is also pretty funny - especially the Team America theme song - i would definitely recomend it to people who are old enough to get into the theatre.
i was a little let down.. but maybe i was expecting more from the gang that brought us South Park.. somehow I missed Cartman.
It's an ok watch.. intentionally made cheesy in places .. the trouble with this movie may be that the theme appeals to right wing self righteous asses who are not gonna go see it cuz of the coarse language and vulgar humor.
