Saw the Simpsons Movie yesterday with my buddy Rob here in Toronto. First time I've gone to see a movie on its first day. No lines at all at the theater, odd.
Rob and I seemed to agree with the reviews, the movie's a B/B+ rating. An entertaining enough story line, some very clever gags. Biggest negative was that the movie felt like a collection of short TV clips stitched together. Not a bad thing necessarily, just not as smooth a story arc as many recent animated movies.
If you love/like the Simpsons TV show, you won't be disappointed.
Worth seeing in the theater?: Yes (the audience response was half the fun!)
Buy the DVD when it comes out? Absolutely
Go see it a second time? No
Recommended for watching when you're in a coma? No, you should be fully awake for this one
