When North Korean ruler Kim Jong-il (Trey Parker) orchestrates a global terrorist plot, it's up to the heavily armed marionettes of the highly specialized Team America unit to stop his dastardly scheme. The group, which includes the thespian-averse technology expert Chris (Matt Stone), not only has to face off against Jong-il, but they must also contend with F.A.G., the Film Actors Guild, a cadre of Hollywood liberals at odds with Team America's "policing the world" tactics.

Critics Consensus

Team America will either offend you or leave you in stitches. It'll probably do both.

The whole thing plays like Thunderbirds Goes to Hell and will doubtless offend all those numskulls who complained about the BBC's transmission of Jerry Springer: The Opera. For that alone, it gets my vote.

Raunchy action comedy from South Park team isn't for kids.

Juvenile in the worst sense: confused and frightened by the adult world, and begging to be protected.

2/4

Once the novelty of the marionettes wears off, the movie has trouble sustaining its length, its laughs, and even its level of outrageousness.

7/10

Whatever the case, at just over 90 minutes, with rarely any time to slow down, Team America is the sort of bold experiment that delivers plenty of laughs and a clear level of ambition on display. The craft alone is enough to warrant a look.

Team America: World Police has South Park evil geniuses Trey Parker and Matt Stone doing what they do best: savagely making fun of big-game targets while burning every bridge around them

Team America is hilarious and offensive from beginning to end, and I love every solitary second.

Team America World Police is the most shameless and hilariously outrageous comedy of all time benefiting from the crazy minds of the South Park brothers.

Team America: World Police needed better characterization and the first half is weaker than the second one, but the movie is still classic Trey Parker and Matt Stone stuff with a terrific parody of US politics, Hollywood and action movies, many hilarious jokes and particularly effective musical numbers which are so funny in their lyrics.

It's clearly not for the easily offended but if you able to not take the offensive jokes too seriously, Team America World Police is a pretty enjoyable, constantly funny satire of American style action movies.

Gleefully stupid, but also incredibly topical and clever for the time in which it was made, this film from the "South Park" folks is a comedy winner that still holds up today.
