Team America: World Police (2004)
Friday, January 27th, 2006I miss you more than Michael Bay missed the mark
When he made Pearl Harbor.
If subtlety were a sin, this movie would be an immaculate conception. Team America is the cinematic equivilent of a fraternity hazing, not that there’s anything wrong with that. I got the feeling that writers Trey Parker and Matt Stone were on a beer bender when they wrote it and then got the studio execs drunk before they pitched the idea. Not that there’s anything wrong with that, either.
This is one of those films where summarizing the plot is pointless because, outside the context of the movie, the plot is beyond stupid. That’s not a criticism, just an observation. Parker and Stone would probably not only agree, but would laugh and call me names if I said otherwise.
