Buy. Watch. Laugh. Team America is HilariousReview created: 09/22/05

If you've read any of my reviews before, you probably know that I am proponent of collecting DVDs that will get reuse - for that reason comedy's tend to play a key role in my collection because, for some reason, I get good usage out of comedies (perhaps because I don't need to watch from start to finish each time?). Team America is a definitely collection adder because it has great re-watch-ability - in fact, its funnier the 2nd and 3rd time around.
Team America was created and written by South Park creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone - now I've never been a Southpark fan, but this is fantastically funny stuff. Parker and Stone leave nothing unturned (pardon the pun) - whether its celebrities, politicians, religion, current events, etc - they poke fun at it. And usually in a hysterical, raunchy way. Besides the creators, the actors are a cast of string puppets which move so awkwardly that you cant help but laugh.
Highlights include:
* The puppets in general - the herky-jerky motions and awkward movements are hilarious - making simple acts like walking and 'love-making' quite funny.
* The music and soundtrack are fantastic - from ballads about how terrible Ben Affleck and Pearl Harbor are to "Freedom isn't Free"... you'll be laughing
* A raunchy scene involving marionette sex
Buy. Watch. Laugh. But be warned - its not for those easily offended or grossed out!

South Park team does it againReview created: 08/25/09

Always on the cutting edge of comedy, Parker and Stone prove again why they are some of the most talented writers in the entertainment business today. And also some of the most talented music composers. If you are tired of the same old PC comedy, rent or buy Team America, World Police and watch what you wish you could do to the Hollywood phoneys yourself. You will laugh from beginning to end.

Excellent movie. Shows the truth about the crazy left in America. It's completely awesome that the South Park guys make a stand against the far-left, and stand up for America. Even through the comedy, it can evoke laughs. A must see.

Not for everyoneFrom the geniuses that bring us South Park comes 'Team America:World Police', one of the most hilarious (and unusual) films I've watched recently.
Visually, I'd be lying if I said 'Team America' was excellent, it isn't. It looks like a cross between thunderbirds and a crazy puppetfest. But for 'Team America' we can cast it aside because that's what makes it funny - we can laugh at all the poor movements of the characters that thunderbirds was known for.
You can't really describe the humour in 'Team America' very well. It's one of those comedies which you might find sends you un fits of laughter when you're not even sure why. The thing that stops 'Team America' from being higher rated is that it's deifnately for everybody. There will be some people who hate it just because they think it uses immature jokes. Though not one of the best comedies in the world I personally liked this. But if laughing at how cheap and poor the film looks and moves, laughing at something just because it's disgusting or over-exaggerated, or laughing at people making fun of other races (such as the evil Chinese bad guy in this case) - steer clear.
