| Rating |  | | Date | August 03, 2005 | | Summary | This Movie Is A Comedy Gem!!! | Content
 | This movie was made Trey Parker and Matt Stone who achieved great suceess with their South Park series. This movie is VERY FUNNY from the outset when Matt reveals his intentions to Trey as they arrive at a girl's party. Later they are seen having a good time in (unknown to them) the girl's mother's bedroom.The jokes come hard and fast and a highlight is when Trey and Matt try to "outpsyche" their baseketball opponents. I give this movie 5 stars because it is guaranteed to offend some people which means that is it tastless, crude, vulgar BUT very funny which is just what a good comedy should be. |

| Anyone who likes southpark will enjoy this movie. The creators of southpark have made another humorous production, starring themselves this time. True fans will note that Trey Parker does 2 of the voices from their animated series (Mr. Garrison and Cartman). This movie is always good for a laugh. |

| The best part of this momentus, history-making film is the heartfelt french kiss shared by Coop and Remer at the end of the film. Nothing says "homosexual undertones" like a big sloppy kiss between two friends. Even funnier is the outtakes (which I'm not sure are included on the DVD; I saw them at the end of the VHS), where they're trying, really trying, to get the kiss right wthout laughing and seeming TOO gay... that's comedy. |

| So far, the creators of South Park have 3 movies(I believe), Cannibal the Musical, Orgazmo and this one. Usually with these kind of movies it's best to watch them in spurts as excessive watching just deadens the joke impact but putting it away for maybe a month then revisiting it refreshes it in a sense.
Coop and Remur are 2 misfits who only drink and hang out and don't even bother to pay the gas bills. While at a party, they invent a game right on the spot: baseketball, where you play basketball only involving baseball rules. Soon it becomes a neighbourhood hit and a guy wants to make it a popular sport, which it does.
5 years later, and they have a professional arena, tons of fans and many teams. Only, as usual, people want to expand it for profit. This creates a little divider between Remur and Coop as one wants to be more traditional about not allowing endorsements and switching teams. Not to mention, their game is on the line as they have to win the playoffs or it'll go to the owner of the league and his wife, who just happens to be in cahoots with the "evil" corporate guy.
A lot of the laughs are quite funny while others fall completely flat. Personally, the radio song, some of the psyche-outs(the defense team has to do anything to make you miss the net) are funny and I love the Unsolved Mysteries spoof. For all you South Park fans(cause let's face it, why else would you watch this?) there's primarily 2: Coop does a Mr. Garrison voice and then the ever-popular Cartman psyche-out at the end.
Still, if you're in the mood for that off-the-wall humor, can't go wrong with it, just don't overdo it. |
