Review of Team America: World Police (2004) by Chase L — 11 Apr 2014

A brilliant satire on the mostly unnecessary U.S. ("World Police") involvement in the Middle East and its effect on the world and certain celebrities/actors that can be ignorant of what is really going on. Although the movie pokes fun at the U.S.'s foreign policy in the Middle East, it doesn't wholly condemn certain precautions in foreign nations. The greatest example of this comes from Gary Johnston's vulgar, yet moving speech:

"We're dicks! We're reckless, arrogant, stupid dicks. And the Film Actors Guild are pussies. And Kim Jong-il is an asshole. Pussies don't like dicks, because pussies get fucked by dicks. But dicks also fuck assholes: assholes that just want to shit on everything. Pussies may think they can deal with assholes their way. But the only thing that can fuck an asshole is a dick, with some balls. The problem with dicks is: they fuck too much or fuck when it isn't appropriate - and it takes a pussy to show them that. But sometimes, pussies can be so full of shit that they become assholes themselves...because pussies are an inch and half away from ass holes. I don't know much about this crazy, crazy world, but I do know this: If you don't let us fuck this asshole, we're going to have our dicks and pussies all covered in shit!".

The animation is also praiseworthy. The designs and movements of the marionettes are all hilarious and based off of stereotypes you find in action movies. If you aren't laughing your ass off within the first 10 minutes, this movie probably isn't for you.
