This is probably one for the rental bin (and with some friends with you and some beers in you), though I suspect it will get plenty of quotation action in the coming years.

You do know the "Montage" song was USED in an SP episode before, right?
It was in the ep when the boys go to Aspen for skiing and adults go to the timeshare pitch...one of the boys gets training on skiing and they use the montage song.
That was my one criticism with the movie: the use of a couple of gags already used in South Park.
Other than that, I feel it is a great blend of political satire (the title itself is satire...Team America: **World Police**) and South Park irreverent humor.

i've been wrestling with a review of this for a few days now, deleteing and re-writing and undoing and so on. What i can agree on, though, is that the soundtrack is without dobt the funniest thing in the film.

Not being an SP regular viewer, no, I didn't know about the Montage sequence. It's still funny.
And, yes, I'd say the music is the most reliably humorous bit in the movie.
