"America, F*** Yeah!" From Trey Parker and Matt Stone comes the outrageously hilarious comedy Team America: World Police. When North Korea's rogue dictator Kim Jong Il plans a massive terrorist attack, it's up to the elite counter-terrorism task force Team America to save the day. The political satire is brilliant, especially in its lampooning of Hollywood. And the choice to do the film with puppets is comedic genius; setting the perfect tone for this brand of humor. Additionally, the soundtrack is full of original songs that are ridiculously funny. Team America: World Police is an irreverent and inspired comedy that delivers a ton of laughs.
Sometimes the theme song of Team America comes up on my music playlists on shuffle. I enjoy the song. Because of that, I had a positive memory, but I forgot everything about the movie since my last watch in 2005. After the revisit, the scenes and the songs all came back. The movie isn't fantastic. Today, certain scenes bothered me in their juvenility (Film Actors Guild and the Korean accent). Yet, some of the satire is spot-on and quite good.
I lost when saw Star Wars reference. LOL I understand why Quentin Tarantino loves this so much.

An excellent satire on action movies, Hollywood and America. It has a unique look with the toy puppets and I find the puppet mannerisms funny, they make the jokes even more funny. It's from the creators of South Park so expect dumb humor with a lot of cursing, but just like South Park there's always a social commentary hidden underneath it all. Not every joke landed for me but a good portion did. The fact that this was made with puppets is what makes it great in my opinion, i'm not sure any of this would work without them. Quite entertaining, lots of action, overflowing with movie references, great soundtrack and the third act is a blast. Favorite moment was the cats. Really fun watch!
Matt Damon!
Still great in 2022!!:rofl:
Kim Jong Il: You are worthress, Arec Barrwin!
It’s been a lot of years since I last watched Team America. Still a decent movie but not nearly as good as I used to think it was. Some of the jokes still work and some just don’t anymore.
The political satire is harmless, but as a parody of Hollywood action blockbusters, it’s pretty funny. Plays with literally all clichés and stereotypes of the genre. The choice to have puppets is genius, as the context always looks so silly that even when the jokes don’t land, you still end up laughing.
