I am a HUGE South Park fan, never once have they offended me, what anyone sees as offensive I see as hilarious, that's why I've seen every episode of South Park at LEAST twice. But somehow Team America didn't work for me, I know these guys stand a bit more to the right than your usual Hollywood folk and that's what I've always found them so refreshing. Although I lean more towards the left, I've always appreciated them for their insight. My problem with this movie isn't that it's too controversial or offensive, it's that it isn't enough of EITHER!. All of the elements seem to be in place, Trey directing, Thunderbirds style puppets, Jerry Bruckheimer parody, roasting of Hollywood stars, everything except the HUMOR!. What's up guys, where's your nerve? you had all the targets up, and yet you left most of them standing!
Any episode of South Park is way funnier than this, they should've gone in with a more provocative script, I guess they were holding back because of the sensitive issue, but that goes exactly against the theme of the movie itself, what a shame. Extremely weak compared to the South Park movie, this goes into the hall of shame next to Baseketball, I'm afraid.
