Film 340/365, Day 353/365 – Team America: World Police

Hi-lar-ious!  The guys behind South Park have delivered another exceptionally funny film complete with their usual brand of songs.  They somehow know exactly when to be vulgar and when to be clever and so far I have not seen anything they’ve done that I haven’t found funny.  The puppet love scene and when Gary is being sick are two of my highlights but I could probably list another thirty!

Synopsis:  Gary Johnston, noted Broadway actor, is recruited by the top world counter terrorism unit - Team America.  He has been brought in to help them find out who stole a nuclear weapon.  Everything is going well until Gary begins to doubt his abilities, but can the team function without an actor?

Film 69/365, Day 70/365 – South Park: Bigger, Longer and Uncut

This film is excellent on so many levels; the main story is a self-parodying non stop celeb bashing delight where no one is safe from ridicule.  I have never once disagreed with the humour of Parker and Stone and this is just one of the funniest films ever made.  It is also a musical with one of the best collections of songs that are guaranteed to stick in you head long after you’ve seen it.  Simply brilliant!

Synopsis: Four young boys from South Park, Colorado, go to the cinema to watch the film adaptation of their favourite TV show, Terence and Philip in Asses of Fire!  When the boys pick up some fairly colourful language their parents look for someone to blame and as Terence and Philip are Canadian, well, they blame Canada and manage to gain support to begin a full scale war.
