Aqua Teen Hunger Force Colon Movie For Theatres (2007) 6/10


Let me begin by saying that I am a fan of Aqua Teen Hunger Force. I've enjoyed the show since the first season and still dig it. I feel that most of the critics that watched the film had never seen the show therefore they didn't "get it." Well, I "got it," I just didn't like it.

The film is mostly a series of running jokes and references from the show, which if you haven't seen the show, you wouldn't really understand. Just about every character that has ever been on the show throughout the years is also in the film and are given no introduction. Once again you have to see it to understand. I didn't really expect anything less but even the casual viewer may feel lost at times.
The film also just feels like a long episode with the swear words uncensored. This would be great but honestly it looses steam quickly, picks up, slows down. You get the idea. Basically every 15 min the movie gets good then goes down hill.

At the end of the day i know all the fans will check this out and you can make your own judgement. I didn't really think it was very funny and i found that disappointing since I still love the show. If you're not a fan, you better watch some episodes first to get to know the characters first. Might i suggest the broodwich episode?

Overall 6/10
