• Simpsons Movie Review

  • Pre-movie impressions

    • Too hyped up

    • I gave it a Pre-B rating

    • Afraid that all the best jokes were already reviled in the commercials

    • Hoped that the bad guy was a group of bad guys that was made up of all the bad guys ever in the Simpsons

  • Movie Review

    • Some of the jokes were dated to present time so the appeal to later generations may falter

    • Second-half of movie ran out of jokes, but that was where most of the story occurred

    • Surprisingly there was a lot of shocking things.

  • Overview

    • I stuck with my rating of B and would recommend the movie to any Simpson fan.
