The freakiest funny animated movie ever. Plympton is whacked. I have seen his shorts, but this takes the cake. What a hoot. It has no redeeming value. It just makes you laugh. Total absurdity at it's finest. If you hate this, feel sorry for your comedic side. You at least have to appreciate the animation. Plot aside, or plot against, just too creative for words. If you like Monty Python's animation, you'll love this.
... View MoreI love Bill Plympton's animation. I remember going to animation festivals in the early-to-mid 80's and his short-shorts being a staple. He has an active imagination, his work shows movement at all times, and his artwork even approaches beauty in its own way.That all being said, this is a movie that could have been. The trademark Bill Plympton weirdness is all there, and it's really all the film is about. This could have easily been a twenty-minute short, and probably should have been. The same plot actions are repeated over and over again, simply to give Plympton opportunities to be more weird. These pieces -- in themselves -- are fascinating, but it makes the entire movie crawl. There IS a plot, it's just very underdeveloped.I'd still recommend it to Plympton fans, but anyone else will be extremely annoyed.

This movie was a wonderful fantasy in which Plympton used the animated media to its highest potential. This movie does have something to offend just about everyone, from extreme profanity, extreme violence, to bizarre (but funny) sex scenes to quoting Hermann Goring?? The bird sex scene in the opening probably did a good job offending most of the population and let you know there was a really raunchy good time ahead; the facial expressions were great! Another great part to look for is when one character watches the "How To Make Love To A Woman" video. There was one segment I rewound the tape three times and STILL couldn't hear what was said because I was laughing SO HARD! WONderful movie and such an improvement over "The Tune".
... View MoreThis film is quite mad. The balloon animal sex scene is completely nuts. I watched this film in a quiet room with about five of my mates, and we were sat there laughing our heads off throughout. Watch it, if only for the aforementioned sex scene.
