Team America Rocks.
I knew going in that I would love this movie, I'm sorta biased
when it comes to Matt & Trey. We bought our tickets online last
week, and arrived early last night to get good seats. The sneak
preview was not sold out when we arrived, it was only 3/4 sold
one hour before showtime. I didn't see any empty seats by the
time the film started. YAY I cheered as it finally began. It was
hysterical and politically irreverent. I love that!
Here is my scorecard for the film, after my initial
viewing....

Comedy |
A+ |
oh my goodness - my sides hurt from laughing!!!!
Death, gore, and violence is absolutely hysterical when its
done with puppets. |
Sex |
A |
I cannot image what they cut out to get the
R rating... ok I guess I can imagine, nevermind. |
Violence
|
A

plenty of blood and gore to keep
my horror fan husband happy |
Music |
B+ |
I'm getting the soundtrack from amazon.. Some
songs were really great, some songs seemed rushed, almost
incomplete in spots, ..... it's a tough act to follow Oscar-nominated
SP:BLU. My husband was still singing "I'm Ronery"
today. I loved the montage song. Pure Trey. |
Special Effects |
A |
the combined use of marionettes with only a
small amount of cgi was impressive - We loved seeing sculptors,
puppeteers and mold-makers in the credits for a change. |
American Cheese |
A+ |
If we can't make fun of ourselves...then everyone
else will. Over the top patriotism is always funny to me. |
Celebrity Bashing |
A+ |
I was surprised at the sheer number of celebs
lampooned (and worse) in this film. |
