TEAM AMERICA: WORLD POLICE (2004)
Certification15 Our Rating
South Park creators Matt Stone and Trey Parker offend everyone from the neo-conservative Bush administration to the Hollywood liberal mouthpieces as they set about defending the world from villains, despots and anyone else who offends their gung-ho sensibilities. So it's goodbye to the reds, the mullahs and the bleeding heart liberals – bye-bye Paris, bye-bye the Pyramids, and bye-bye WMD toting Arabs. Team America is a work of utterly over the top genius, crass, tacky, neon-lit, pom-pom-waving

THE DARK CRYSTAL (1982)
CertificationPG Our Rating
A lovely fantasy of a far-off star where one era is ending and another dawning. The prophets decree that only a wee cute (muppet-like) Gelfling can save the world from domination by the evil Skeksis forever. This stunningly made film's imaginative settings could only be from the Henson team. Excellent.
