Details

When North Korean ruler Kim Jong-il orchestrates a global terrorist plot, it's up to the heavily armed, highly specialized Team America unit to stop his dastardly scheme. The group, which has recruited troubled Broadway actor Gary Johnston, not only has to face off against Jong-il, but they must also contend with the Film Actors Guild, a cadre of Hollywood liberals at odds with Team America's "policing the world" tactics.

SpuffyWeb Sadly Over-hyped
Claysaba Excellent, Without a doubt!!
Mandeep Tyson The acting in this movie is really good.
jacobjohntaylor1 This movie is awful. It is badly written. It is sick and wired. I when do comedy fans get sick of the crape being fed to them and stop thinking it's funny. This is one of the worst comedies ever do not see it. It is awful. Who ever wrote it has no talent. The acting is awful. It is the worst movie ever.
keelhaul-80856 These guys took out a leader of North Korea on film, way before "The Interview" from Rogen and Franco. Everyone in this film is ridiculed on all sides(SNL in 2017 should take notes), and I mean EVERYONE.It was very timely for the post 9/11 era, and it does a great job of showcasing the absurdities of everything from country singers cashing in with sappy songs on tragedies, really uninformed patriotism or apathy for what is going on in the world, idiotic self-righteous leftists and Hollywood clowns like Alec Baldwin/Tim Robbins/Matt Damon, etc. with some sex and vomiting and puppet fight scenes that you can't help but crack a smile at.The Film Actors Guild idea was truly brilliant. The songs are hysterical, and now a pop culture throwback reference to most Americans. TEAM America!!! F*** YEAH!! HERE TO SAVE THE MOTHERF***** DAY YEAH!!!!Kim Jong was never more lovable!!! "DO SOMETHING AWEC BODWIN!!!"
Derek Bellas I understand that Team America was supposed to be kid of poorly made, as it resembles South Park for good reasons, but just like South Park, I found myself turned off by the horrible puppetry and I just couldn't enjoy watching it. Some of the humor I enjoyed, but for the most part it just seemed like a 10 year old trying to act edgy around his friends. I enjoy a good offensive joke, but this really didn't have any; it was just bland and uninteresting. I honestly had almost forgotten about this movie until someone mentioned it, and the memory of wasting over an hour of my life came back to inspire me to write this review to tell people not to waste their time like I did.
TheMarwood Back in 2004 Team America rode a tidal wave of controversial hype to theaters, where it quickly vanished off screens. A grueling production and a rushed post production to meet a silly release date timed for election season, keeps Team America from being as tightly edited as it should. It runs about 15 minutes too long and needs some tinkering, but as sloppy as the film can get, it's sheer audacity as not only a technical accomplishment but as a deranged satire is something to behold. The last thing I was expecting from Trey Parker was a meticulously crafted film - something hilarious, of course - but not brilliant cinematography, well lit models and well staged action, while skewering the visuals of Bruckheimer productions. Even if a particular joke falls flat, I find it hard not to still have a smile on my face from watching absurd puppets in absurd sets - the whole film is a visual gag. While Parker and Stone certainly mine laughs at the expense of self righteous actors, the gags worked best as a TV newscast punchline, but turning that punchline into a last act plot thread doesn't fully work. The screenplay never really finds its footing, but my criticisms are dwarfed by the fact that just looking at the film makes me laugh out loud.
