The Simpsons Movie

Homer Simpsons: We have a great life here in Alaska, and we're never going back to America again!

The Simpsons is a comic movie, created in 2007 after many episodes of the show the Simpsons. The tagline of the movie is : See our family. And feel better about yours.

The movie was directed by David Silverman and written by James L Brooks and Matt Groening. There is no actor of course because the characters are not real. But there are people for their voice. Many people did more than one character. The main characters and their voices:

Homer- Dan Castellaneta
Marge-Julie Kavner
Bart-Nancy Cartwright
Margie-Nancy Cartwright
Lisa- Yeardley Smith

Synopsis: When Lisa Simpson tells the town of Springfield about their pollution problem, the town reacts and prohibits all pollution into the water. This doesn't stop Homer, who dumps a pig-waste silo into the water. Russ Cargill decides that Springfield is too dangerous and places a dome over the town, stopping anything from getting in or out. When the town people find out the true culprit behind the problem, they set out off straight for the Simpson's home. Escaping from the dome, the Simpsons decide to start a new life in Alaska, whilst the remainder of the town disappears [From Film Fan]

My personnal rating: I would give **** to this movie. I think that the movie is funny and serious at the same time. If we look at the movie many problems we have in our world now are treated in the movie. A big one, polution, is the main one in the movie. Even if they exagerate it with the dome we don't realize that our planet is "dying". The movie also make fun of the Government and it is pretty fun! I think because the characters are not real humans they can be more open with the subjects they are using and the way they show it.

My rating scale:
*The movie was really bad
**The movie was bad
***The movie was ok
****The movie was good
*****The movie was really good
