Low brow but high humour in Team America

Since Team America comes from the South Park creators Trey Parker and Matt Stone, we know what we’re in for…a screen full of puppets saving the world from the evils of a North Korea bent on destruction of the American way of life.

Team America: World Police

Director: Trey Parker

Cast (Voices): Trey Parker, Matt Stone, Phil Hendrie, Masasa, Kristen Miller, Daran Norris

Cert: 15.

Since this story comes from the South Park creators - Parker and Stone - we know what we’re in for…a screen full of puppets saving the world from the evils of a North Korea bent on destruction of the American way of life.

And along the way everyone comes up as a target for the raw humour … though it is the liberal elite of Hollywood who cop it most.

It’s not quite as funny or shocking as it thinks it is, but at a low-grade level of universal incorrection it somehow works.

Star Rating: 2/5
