The Simpsons had already ruled TV land for many years by the time they finally attempted to conquer the movie world as well. It was never any big secret that a Simpsons movie was in the works: Fox registered the domain name "Simpsonsmovie.com" in 1997, a full nine years before the film was finally greenlighted. When creator/producer Matt Groening's creation finally made it to the big screen in 2007, it only turned out to be the biggest hit of the summer, raking in over $100 million gross in box-office receipts in its first week, before heading on to do over $500 million worldwide, proving that the best joke in the movie was actually played on the audience: "Why pay for something when you can see it for free?" asks Homer at the movie's start. Naturally, all the trouble starts with him. When he adopts a pig ("Sir Oinks-A-Lot") destined for Krusty's slaughterhouse, it triggers an environmental catastrophe, forcing the government to seal Springfield into a dome and destroy the city. While the family manages to escape and flee to Alaska, they eventually decide to return and help save the city in more-or-less classic Simpson fashion. As Homer's joke about the audience shows, Groening and producer Al Jean are keenly aware that their franchise is first and foremost a TV show. Maybe a little too aware, as the movie fails to ever rise above anything more than an extended episode, and not even one of its best episodes at that. True, there are plenty of good jokes; the animation has been kicked up a notch to be particularly sharp and detailed; and there are some truly memorable moments such as Bart's nude skateboard ride and the "Spider-Pig" song. But when the film finally materialized, the payoff for long years of anticipation turned out to be small as the movie failed to live up to its potential; it's amusing but not truly funny. The Simpsons Movie leaves the impression that maybe the show's writers and producers had already spent their best ideas on the best years of the TV show. Had it been made years earlier… well, we can only wonder what could have been. --Daniel Vancini

This might be the funniest movie i have ever seen. This movie has dumb people, guns, cops, homer, bart, and the famous spider pig(harry plopper). This movie is so funny, you will be on the floor in about 20 minuets into the movie. My favorite part is when bart goes to krusty's on his scateboard, NAKED. i freackin laughed my head off. you will love to add this movie to your simpson collection, and your movie collection. Anybody who buys this movie, will love it.

This movie has the same problem that the series did, it has too many individual pieces that are edited together. For instance, their was an episode where a mailman was found frozen with hundreds of undelivered peices of mail. That in and of itself would have made a great episode but the mailman was only mentioned as an afterthought. The same goes for this movie as well, it is several good, independant ideas for a tv show or movie all thrown together with tidbits of environmental jargon thrown in to make it appear as if it is one complete movie. It is not, and this method has only fooled a couple of people. Perhaps there are too many writers all contributing nonsense.
