Critics Consensus

The Simpsons Movie contains the hearty laughs, biting satire, and honest portrayal of an American family that makes the show so popular. And it boasts slicker animation and polished writing that hearkens back to the show's glory days.

Charlotte O'Sullivan

London Evening Standard

The big-screen Simpsons are mildly entertaining, but too much of this is as flabby as Homer's belly.

There were plenty of decent jokes, but I've already forgotten most of them; I suspect within a month's time I'll be hard pressed to recall much about the movie at all beyond a vague sense of disappointment.

At the Movies (Australia)

It's very well written and, as I say, it's consistently funny.

Rated: 4/5

Gone With The Twins

In its long-awaited moment in the limelight, the film can't manage to present itself as much more than a couple of regular episodes tied together.

Rated: 5/10

I'm not sure if this film will draw that many new fans, but the millions who can't get enough of Homer, Bart, Marge, Maggie and Lisa in first-run or syndication will surely be pleased with this latest venture.

The Dispatch (Lexington, NC)

This is not a movie so much as a series of loosely connected punchlines.

Rated: 2.5/4

The Simpsons Movie is a fun and filling movie when you're in the mood for a comedy. It has a interesting story and just want to make you happy. It stretched out sometimes and makes a lot of random jokes that don't hit like the others.

This film came out 17 years ago, I watched it yesterday. It was amazing, I laughed the whole way through and never realised what a terrible person Homer actually is. He saves the town in the end, but he was the one that destroyed it in the first place. Little character development there, but hey it's The Simpsons Movie and we all love the Simpsons. WHERE IS THE SEQUEL?!

I’m not even a Simpsons fan and this movie is still one of my favorite animated movies of all time. It was really funny and I enjoyed the story a lot. I’d really like to see a sequel to this movie

In some ways it's not quite as good as the series, but in many ways it succeeds and is even better. The jokes are funny, the heartfelt moments shine, and it's just a great time for longtime fans of the show.
