The Simpsons had already ruled TV land for many years by the time they finally attempted to conquer the movie world as well. It was never any big secret that a Simpsons movie was in the works: Fox registered the domain name 'Simpsonsmovie.com' in 1997, a full nine years before the film was finally greenlighted. When creator/producer Matt Groening’s creation finally made it to the big screen in 2007, it only turned out to be the biggest hit of the summer, raking in over $100 million gross in box-office receipts in its first week, before heading on to do over $500 million worldwide, proving that the best joke in the movie was actually played on the audience: 'Why pay for something when you can see it for free?' asks Homer at the movie’s start. Naturally, all the trouble starts with him. When he adopts a pig ('Sir Oinks-A-Lot') destined for Krusty’s slaughterhouse, it triggers an environmental catastrophe, forcing the government to seal Springfield into a dome and destroy the city. While the family manages to escape and flee to Alaska, they eventually decide to return and help save the city in more-or-less classic Simpson fashion. As Homer’s joke about the audience shows, Groening and producer Al Jean are keenly aware that their franchise is first and foremost a TV show. Maybe a little too aware, as the movie fails to ever rise above anything more than an extended episode, and not even one of its best episodes at that. True, there are plenty of good jokes; the animation has been kicked up a notch to be particularly sharp and detailed; and there are some truly memorable moments such as Bart’s nude skateboard ride and the 'Spider-Pig' song. But when the film finally materialized, the payoff for long years of anticipation turned out to be small as the movie failed to live up to its potential; it’s amusing but not truly funny. The Simpsons Movie leaves the impression that maybe the show’s writers and producers had already spent their best ideas on the best years of the TV show. Had it been made years earlier… well, we can only wonder what could have been. --Daniel Vancini

Average Rating: 
Rating: - "Oh no. Blowback!!"
This movie was great. I was bored and it gave me something to do! Most of the laughs were good although there were some empty jokes.
Every character never strayed away from what they usually would act like and the animation was fine.
Homer was the biggest quack but made up for it in the end.
It was nice to see Maggie's parts too!
4 stars.
end note: It's funny. Don't believe anything else!
Rating:  - Not even a good episode
With so much debate over older seasons vs. newer seasons, I have to say that I have enjoyed every season much more than I enjoyed this movie. This was not made for die-hard fans, and lacks most of what makes the Simpsons so entertaining.
I won't belabor what others have said, but I will repeat it: Short shrift for the supporting cast, angry Homer not funny Homer, tedious "message" movie, deficit of jokes. Just so very, very disappointing. But it did make money and some people liked ... Read More

weekly we would sit and watch this show. I like the simpsons and the humor on all levels.
Rating:  - Meh
Meh, *not* D'oh! I mean it's not bad. If your a diehard Simpsons fan you probably loved it, or at least like it.
Been a Simpsons fan since the beginning. For years as everyone knows there was talk of a full length movie. I read somewhere Matt Groening saying that they were waiting for "the right story". For about two years Groening and a small group of the central writters worked on a script and unsatisfied with the results kept throwing it out. During the process Groening and company ... Read More
Rating:  - I was chosen to lead, not to read!
I remember watching The Simpsons when it was first shown on The Tracy Ullman Show. Who would of thought it would still be on to this day. Both The Simpsons and Family Guy are my favorite.
The movie which was rumored for a while, finally comes to the big screen. I remember when it first came out, there was a big banner hanging from the Multiplex. Mmmmmm. Simpsons on the big screen! argharghargharghahr!
The DVD has a good number of extras on the DVD including one of my favorities, ... Read More
