The incomparable gang at full length for the first time, with enough jokes, satire, nonsense, and sentiment to justify the eighty-eight minutes.

David Denby, New Yorker
Rotten

Doesn't make the existential leap to the big screen, and it doesn't have the density of gags or the lunatic free-association of the best episodes.

David Edelstein, New York Magazine/Vulture

Nobody should have a cow. Bigger and longer don't always mean better, but The Simpsons Movie is still a cut above.

Paul Clinton (CNN.com), CNN.com

Definitely worth your money.

Some 10 years after expected, The Simpsons Movie couldn't give a doodle in a doughnut hole about expectations anyway. It may deliver what we've already got, but it leaves no doubt why we got it in the first place.

Geoff Pevere, Toronto Star
