[REVIEW] The Simpsons Movie

[rfmcdonald]

Released in 2007, The Simpsons Movie wasn't as spectacular a movie effort as it might have been had a decade and a half ago. I'm inclined to agree with Jerry--a much bigger fan of The Simpsons than me--in his feeling that the movie wasn't a movie so much as it was the equivalent of four episodes strung together. Perhaps lagom might be the right word to describe it. That said, even when the The Simpsons are lagom, the show is better than most of what's on television, and Jerry and I would have to agree with--say--Jaquandor at Byzantium's Shores that it's great fun.
