Combining the puppetry of the mid-1960s series THUNDERBIRDS with action/disaster flicks produced by Jerry Bruckheimer (TOP GUN, ARMAGEDDON, PEARL HARBOR), Parker and Stone tell the story of a small group of heroic figures who span the globe protecting democracy and freedom against terrorism. Along the way, they destroy such famous international landmarks as the Eiffel Tower in Paris, the Sphinx in Egypt, and the Panama Canal. All the while they are developing close relationships that lead to love, jealousy, and betrayal. Their primary mission is to stop North Korean leader Kim Jong Il's peace conference, which is a ruse to allow him to attack the rest of the world with his weapons of mass destruction. Team America must also take on F.A.G., the Film Actors Guild, which is supporting the peace conference, including such participants as Alec Baldwin, Tim Robbins, Susan Sarandon, Sean Penn, George Clooney, and other actors who have spoken out against the war in Iraq (but did not agree to be spoofed in the film). Parker and Stone reserve a special message for FAHRENHEIT 9/11 director Michael Moore, and even former UN weapons inspector Hans Blix shows up. Among the very funny--and very dirty--songs in the film are "Everyone Has AIDS" (from the Broadway musical LEASE), "Only a Woman" (about homosexuality), and "I'm So Ronery" (Kim Jong Il's soaring solo). Despite having no actual humans in it, the movie earns its R rating with lots of blood, very adult language, and a steamy puppet sex scene. [More]

Profane, violent, and scabrously funny, this Team has something to offend all, from pious Hollywood liberals to knee-jerk nationalists.

If you're not a fan of naughtiness for naughtiness's sake, Team America is this week's must-miss movie.

Trey Parker and Matt Stone take such pleasure in being naughty that it makes their work more silly than smutty.

It's hilarious, vicious, offensive, thoroughly profane, and a joy to watch, just like you'd expect.

Good try, some funny and clever ideas, but not really worth the time.

For its imagination, audacity and willingness to tick off absolutely everyone, Team America is the most memorable comedy you'll see this year -- at least among the ones starring puppets.

There's lots of tastelessly funny stuff here, but too much repetition.

When Team America runs out of ideas, Parker and Stone turn into a couple of obnoxious kids running around in circles giving the finger to everyone they see.

Forget about Fahrenheit 9/11; this is the most incisive political film of 2004.

The movie probably hits the left harder than the right, but ultimately "Team America" aims to make everybody wince and make everybody laugh.

Team America might sound like a backyard enterprise, but this highly detailed motion picture could stand proudly alongside any blockbuster.

In Stone/Parker’s sick and twisted story, an actor will save the planet. That’s almost a more disturbing image than the puppet porn.

These are no Thunderbirds string-dolls with few movable parts and no facial expressions. They're high-tech — and anatomically correct.
