DVD: South Park: Bigger, Longer and Uncut

South Park Bigger Longer and Uncut. In 1997 Two men Matt Stone and Trey Parker created a Television show in where it showed a group of kids who lived in the small town of South Park, Colorado. Two years later the group of foul talking children of South Park came to the big screen.

Just much like the television show South Park Bigger Longer and Uncut play much like the show. With America on the brink of war with Canada, can the four young kids of South Park, Colorado save the world from war and also from Satan?

The film is laugh out loud funny. Who would of known that a group of kids and those around them with foul language would be so hilarious. If you like racism and vulgar language jokes then you'll most likely love this film, but if not then I think you should stay away from this one. The fans will find many of the same characters they know and love in the Comedy Central television show.

What I thought of this film was that the story was a well thought out. The songs the characters sung (like Uncle F**ker, and the Oscar nominated Blame Canada) where great and well written. Ofcourse the script was well written. The acting in South Park the creators Matt Stone and Trey Parker play most of the characters in the film which is always great acting. Other than Matt an Trey they have some other great actors like: Isaac Hayes as Chef, Dave Foley, and Eric Idle. This movie is really other then a like it or love it film. If your a fan of the South Park television Show you'll probably love this one If you're not you should keep your distance.

DVD

The Dvd of South Park Bigger, Longer and Uncut presents the film in 16x9 Widescreen version with Dolby Digital 5.1 Sound in either English or French. The Dvd also contain English subtitles, and a Interactive menu with 3 Trailers of the film.

This Dvd was very disappointing. The film alone is a great buy but in this era of Dvds There should be more special features. Three different trailers really isn't a special feature on a Dvd. I would have loved to see a "making of" Feature.

If you own every seasons of South Park on Dvd and are die hard fans than this is one that you should add to your collection. If you like the film but you are not that big of a fan I would suggest that you should rent it, but the Dvd shouldn't be a buy for you.
