The Simpsons Movie


The Simpsons Movie
After all these years, the Simpsons finally make it to the big screen to provide a treat for fans. In some ways it borrows the best bits from the TV episodes, yet still comes up with fresh surprises. The plot revolves around their home town being covered by a huge plastic screen, thanks to Homer's polluting activities. Pre-release reviews have been favourable.

87 minutes.

Jean Barker quote iconDespite a few yawn-inducing action sequences, the writers and animators deliver enough surprises, star cameos, ambiguity and satire to keep you hooked.
