It's Canadian Humor!

Eh, it wasn't all that bad, but I failed to laugh more than a few times. I like the idea of bringing back marionette's with strings and all, but I just felt that they could have taken it further. I believe they were rushed during production, so that might be it. Supposedly working on the new season of South Park at the same time while finishing this up. It was no Meet The Feebles.

I have a friend that finds it hilarious as shit, but he gets drunk all the time and thinks me going exploring is lame, so go figure. We're probably not the target demographic.

I agree that Team America was stupid, but it also had me laughing out loud at several points. I loved that it was so right-wing that it came back around to left-wing. It was pretty quickly evident that Trey P. and Matt S. hate actors in politics. Also, I'm working on the assumption that Matt Damon fucked one of their girlfriends.
Also, the first time "America, Fuck Yeah" started playing I quite nearly sprayed soda out of my mouth.
Otherwise, though, having seen one too many of the Jerry Bruckheimer-style movies that it's making fun of, I appreciated the satire aspect as well.

On the other hand, I was bored too often. Some of the funny gags were repeated to the point where they stopped being funny. There wasn't enough puppet sex. They took too much time between the bigger/funnier gags.

Overall, I'd give the flim a C or C-.

I have to agree with what was already said, and the lack of more puppet sex was because they didn't want the NC-17 rating. I'm hoping for the whole scene to be in a deleted scenes part of a dvd, I could watch puppet sex all day.

there's something about puppet sex that is just 'wrong'? It's like watching the cast of Sesame Street getting it on... Team America just looked a little too out there for me.

I'll probably rent it when it comes out on DVD, though just to see what all the noise is about.

Those interested in Hardcore puppet sex should watch Meet the Feebles. It will satisfy your needs.

I was, of course, joking about the puppet sex.

Though Meet the Feebles is a fine movie.

Well I wasn't joking. If I could become a puppet and have sex with other puppets, I would do it in an instant. And I wouldn't be able to stop laughing.

Not me... I'd rather be a MUPPET than some stupid sock puppet... Being a muppet and banging other muppets would be bad ass, rebellious!

It was funny, but ran way too long.
