Review: The Simpsons Movie

I really am not a die-hard Simpsons fan. But every once in a while, I find myself watching the series on TV. I can't believe its a;ready been running for 18 years! Well, I guess now they've cashed in on the franchise by making the inevitable "Simpsons Movie". The plot is simple, with Homer placing Springfield in jeopardy after he pollutes the river with his 'pig crap' silo. Which in turn makes the American Government place Springfield in a huge glass dome. While the story was overly shallow, I still found my self laughing at some scenes. It indeed was very funny. Everyone on the casts still gives life to each of the yellow-colored characters. All in all, I had fun watching the film. But I guess it wouldn't make any difference if this were a one-hour special episode. The Simpsons Movie: 7/10
