Team America follows an international police force dedicated to maintaining global stability. Learning that power hungry dictator Kim Jong Il (Parker) is out to destroy the world, the team recuits Broadway star Gary Johnston (Parker) to go undercover. With the help of Team America (Stone, Miller, Masasa, Parker, and Norris), Gary manages to slip into an arms dealer’s hideout to uncover the plan to destroy the world. Will Team America be able to save the world?
Mannn, this is without doubt one of the funniest films I’ve ever seen, EVAR. It’s made in a ‘Thunderbirds’ marionette puppet style.
It’s also so quotable, some movies you can just quote endlessly, like Pulp Fiction for example is eminently quotable.
America – Fuck, yeah
So lick my butt And suck on my balls
YEAH!
It’s just so me aswell, I feel like this about America, and their actions. They don’t care about other countries, they are just there to blow shit up and act tough. They only go to countries where they can gain a tangible benefit and extract something. Or lend them a shitload of money and leech all their natural resources.
This movie is a perfect social commentary on that. Plus is demonstrates Americans ignorance, and well it’s just generally hilarious in all ways.
Especially the puppets humping scene, and the part where the ‘hero’ is puking his guts out, classic man, seriously classic.
I was pleasantly suprised to see it ranking so high on IMDB aswell, as it’s so totally outrageous and offensive, it scored a very good 7.3.
We all TOTALLY love Kim Jong Il.
I’m the smartest, most crever
Most physicarry fit
But nobody else seems to rearize it
It’s quite possible the most politically incorrect thing I’ve EVAR seen, and that’s why I love it. It’s totally Trey Parker style, not giving a fuck what anyone thinks and just laying it down.
If you haven’t seen this movie, I recommend you do so ASAP.
I give it a hilarious 9/10.
For those that have seen it, and love it, the Team America Script..
FUCK YEAH!!!!!
rotfl, this was a funny show idd. i watched this in manchester last year in the plexes. we didn’t know what to watch, so we asked the bloke behind the counter to give us some ideas.
wasn’t a bad idea, that.
well HERROOO DO YOU KNOW HOW FUCKING BUSY I AMMMM
puppet sex is best!
I guess it was inevitbebebele… inevitbelele… INEVITABLE! that you’d do this review… hehe.
derkha derkah jihad!
yeah!!
saw it last year and it was totally hilarious. loved the humping scene, although the puking scene ranks as the all-time most disgusting (and funniest) scene ever…
fuck yeah! watched it long time ago. The sex part was the best… ahaksss
Funniest? God…. this is the worst movie I ever watched! its totally wasted of time! I rather kill myself to watch it again… fuck team america stupid pupet!
Hmmmm,… it’s not really a surprise how gross/politically incorrect yet funny it is though, right?
I mean: it’s from the people who brought us South Park lah…..
DAGGNAMMIT! I feel like there are all these TEAM AMERICA QUOTES floating around and I just ain’t getting any of them!!!!!
you are breaking my balls
McDonalds, FUCK YEAH!
Wal-Mart, FUCK YEAH!
The Gap, FUCK YEAH!
Baseball, FUCK YEAH!
NFL, FUCK, YEAH!
Rock and roll, FUCK YEAH!
The Internet, FUCK YEAH!
Slavery, FUCK YEAH!
Damn. I like the lyrics. FUCK YEAH!
my comment has no relevance to this post… i dont know if u know this already but Kanna curry house has a new branch in Jalan Gasing opposite the EPF building. Hopefully it’s as good as the ones in SS2 n puchong. take care ST 🙂
Daren: Perhaps you didn’t get the social commentary, or perhaps you’ve just had a sense-of-humour bypass?
Dabido: Yah time to learn the script man!
__earth: Fuck YEAH!
nal1210: Hahaha cool man thanks, must be trying to rival Acha by opening in that area. I already discovered one in Bandar Menjalara, which is much nearer to my place, and it’s also excellent. Cheers!
I soooo wanna hump Kim Jong Il after watching this movie. Film Actors Guide= F.A.G!!!! LOL, one of the best movie I saw last year.
I can’t follow the script, it has no action and doesn’t list who is speaking like a real script does.
It even disagrees with with what IMDB lists as the opening lines!!!!
SACRE BLEU!!!!!
althought this movie is funny…but i do find it sucky though…
Was doing my weekly DVD shopping when I found this sitting in the kid’s cartoon section! I’m not too sure if the parents will like their kids learning all these at such a young age haha..
I actually thought this film was well made.. one of the funniest show I watched so far.
One thing you missed in the review, whilst the film does satirize (shit on) American foreign policy, it also ridicules those opposed to that ‘Gung Ho’ approach too…the viewer is left a little confused as to what Parker & Stone’s true political leaning is…but, Fuck Yeah — it’s great!!!
Btw, why is this adulation 4 the film seemingly appearing on every Malaysian blog going at the moment — has it only just been released there, or did you all collectively get together one night with a rental???
P.S the out-takes on the DVD are hilarious too —
“Team, this is all my fault. I was overzealous in Cairo. I let racism cloud my judgment. I was so sure the ultimate terrorist was Middle Eastern, but I didn’t realize he was a goddamn Gook. I’ll never be a racist again.”
I concur with your review – the movie was r0X0Rz! I remember watching the “Super-Marionation” kid shows when I was a rugrat and that made it all the more funny!
We watched it on the back shift in the NOC some time ago; I damned near fell out of my chair laughing when the two marionettes started getting it on! [LOL]
Cheers,
Ted
Dabido: I guess you’ll actually have to watch it then 🙂
HalfmanHalfbiscuit: Yeah I agree, I prefer to concentrate on the anti-american sentiment tho 😉 Not sure what you mean about every blog either, I haven’t seen it on anyone elses? Most of us did watch it around the same time though.
Ted: Yeah the sex scene had EVERYONE in stitches, especially when it got ‘kinky’
Damn! I only watched a few seconds of it. The DVD’s lying somewhere…………..
Not another anti-american film…. sigh.
MATT DAMON!
(Sorry, can’t resist.)
KABLAAAH!
(Again, I apologize.)
