South Park: Bigger, Longer and Uncut

Really funny. Better, really funny all the way through. Only a few moments stand out as just too stupid to be worthy of the concept and talent, but most the film is really funny. The only regret is that this was made in 1999. Still at the beginning of the series, the film was made when the writers were still getting better. I find many newer episodes to be both funnier and more graphic. Who knows how great a well made South Park movie would be if made today. The other comment is about the musical element of the film. Parker and Stone do well to make every song good and be able to ryhme, but the fact these guys succeed shows how little depth for entertainment currently resides on Broadway. The scheme South Park has is to have songs be semi clever and ryhme well and then put a generic music soundtrack behind it to just give the Broadway flair. Other plays have better talent in making the lyrics and dialogue really forward the story, but all that happens here is that they give a little color to the scenes. They really add nothing. I remember reading Parker and Stone received kudos from Broadway writers for their effort and they laughed it off. The fact that Parker and Stone laughed at it is more telling.
