The Simpsons Movie (2007)
directed by David Silverman
rating: 3 out of 5 cravats
seen on the screen at Oxford Studio Cinema
"The Simpsons" aren't mine on ardent terms. The show was funny, the writers well-intentioned, at their worst when they followed the lead of the derivative adult swim and let a madcap grace go manic. But this movie, for all the particulars I can't remember (something about Green Day, or a woman with a washboard), felt goofy and gentle just enough - like those lovable Springfield cats and dogs the animators like to let pad around.
