Lisa convinces the locals to clean up the polluted Lake Springfield after a crowd of fans sink the Green Day concert stage. Meanwhile, Homer saves a pig from being killed in Krusty Burger and adopts it, calling the animal Spider Pig. After two days, Spider Pig fills up a silo with its excrement and not knowing what else to do, Homer dumps the silo in the lake, polluting it. The angry population forces the Simpsons to move to Alaska. Meanwhile, the president is induced by his advisor from the EPA to put a dome over Springfield to hold in the population and destroy the city. When Marge sees the news on television, she tells Homer that they must return to Springfield to save their town and friends, but Homer is not convinced that the people of Springfield deserve their support.

Funny!
Not what I expected!
Not The Best
I love the Simpsons but I expected more from a show that's been around 20 years. There was a great deal more suspension of disbelief needed to watch this movie than the show. The environmental message the movie had was a bit heavy handed as well.
simpsons
very funny movie, the simpsons are hilarious!
I'd choosen
to review this movie in relation the Jetson's & Flintsone's movie after all not really fair not notice the television franchise's attempt lead into request for ticket sales better quality broadcast! This movie as archival artifact? Falls victim dual-layer pausing in critical moments proving enough data very least! It's been an epic run and I've memories of times it was easy find "Black Bart Man" tee shirts being boot legged on Virgina's peninsula in our blue ridge group support a north Atlantic fleet! If you've never lived through times the series was a scheduled part of network television this would be fine introduction & sure it's lacked an edge for decades being birth experimental! But, in lacking both condemnation fringe, & even some how oddly as if Trojan coming be identified functionally codependent? An amicable acceptable arrangement? The plot far bigger than an episode, the animation of motion within still to live action modern standard? Perhaps the curse is it's on success to even spin off a surprise pick vice presidential candidate United States of America might be said! Simply further advancement, the motto leave them laughing, an as well acceptance cartooning a stand alone art form by itself!
The Simpsons Hit The Big Screen... And it only took 19 years
I remember thinking back to "The Itchy And Scratchy Movie" feature on The Simpsons early on. It was the biggest event to hit Springfield featuring all star cameos of Dustin Hoffman and Michael Jackson. And even though they didn't use their real names, you could tell it was him. Now, just the mention of Michael Jackson in a sentence with the words "all star" give you an idea of how long that was. Had a Simpsons' Movie hit the market within their first five or so years on the air, it might have been the biggest thing to hit the silver screen. But alas, they didn't even make it within their first first ten or even fifteen years. The Simpsons find themselves on the brink of popularity, even their staunchest supporters have given up on them (I consistently watched the first fifteen seasons, but even I had to admit, they needed to throw in the towel.) So the initial reaction to a real Simpsons movie was less than excited. I went into the movie with little expectations.
And suffice to say, there were parts I thought really funny. There were parts I thought really dumb. There were parts I thought acceptable. And I hated the animation. It looked like Futurama (which is fine for Futurama, but The Simpsons has lost its hand-drawn feel.) I liked Albert Brooks. The movie was okay. I'd probably watch it again, though, because, like most Simpsons reruns, I'll watch 'em if there's nothing else to do.

Boooooooorringgggggg
There are nights when you don't feel like a heavy film, so I turn to what I like to call,"mindless teenage brain-rot", a title I borrowed from the King of Radio, "The Hound". I thought,The Simpsons Movie,would fit that bill. I was wrong, terribly wrong. This has to be one of the most boring re-hashed wastes I've suffered through all year. I really wasn't expecting much and I got even less. If the public has to put up with this 10+ year old left over, why can't we have a Family Guy movie, with all it's high and low brow comedy intact.The people who make this show would at least not dissapoint with their left overs.I tried to rate this a minus,but this site requires a star,so don't be fooled by the star like you might be by the ads on TV.
