Team America: World Police

I'd pay real money to see a Broadway play written by Matt Stone & Trey Parker. With songs like "America! F*(@ Yeah! (Bummer Remix)," "Montage," "Blame Canada," & "Cartman's Mom is a Big Fat B!$%," these guys are building a songbook to rival Johnnie Mercer.

I wouldn't advise paying real money to see 'Team America: World Police,' however. Despite some amusing scenes, the movie doesn't add up to a particularly satisfying experience. It isn't that I don't like its skewering of action movie conventions or American politics; it's just that I felt like the movie was laughing at me as much as it was with me. Ah, well.
