Premise: Politically incorrect puppet super heroes destroy Paris and save the world.
Fans of South Park may be disappointed. Ditto for fans of Alec Baldwin and Matt Damon. The film seeks to offend everyone, as does South Park, but overall it’s not nearly as funny.
The first 30 minutes of “Team America: World Police” were slow. There were some payoffs for those with patience. Kim Jong Il, who oddly enough looked a lot like Edward G. Robinson to me, was the highlight of the movie. His Elmer Fudd-like voice and oversized glasses made this pint-sized, ruthless, egomaniacal dictator almost endearing.
The puppet sex scene that vexed the MPAA ratings board when the movie was released lived up to the hype. The movie definitely earns its R rating. I’m wondering now if Barbie and Ken really were doing it in her Malibu beach house, despite Ken’s anatomical shortcomings. The endless vomit scene could have been edited or omitted all together as far as I’m concerned. (Unrated version viewed) (98 min.)

Team America: World Police, Unrated, f* yeah!
Southpark creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone, along with co-writer, Pam Brady, skewer everyone from the left to the right and take on international terrorists too. This puppet-powered full-length action/comedy feature blasts Americans who toe the party line and terrorists who wouldn’t know a party if their turban turned into a lampshade.
Always pushing the envelope, an extended scene featuring sick puppet sex – yes I said sick – goes where Pinocchio never went before.
Should you see it? If you’re not easily offended, I say, “F* yeah!” (Unrated version viewed) (98 min.)
