Matt Stone and Trey Parker had to rewrite the script several times before they reached something that was doable with puppets. When questions to a possible sequel were raised, they said that there was no way they were ever going to work with puppets again. See more »

I went into Team America expecting to see something along the lines of South Park humor, and I wasn't disappointed.
If you can't stand South Park's humor, you won't enjoy this at all. The use of marionettes was an unusual choice, but thanks to the great puppetry and designs, they work very well.
The story is just really there to serve the increasingly twisted humor of Trey and Matt's vision. And it works perfectly. There are at least three scenes which made the audience (and me) in the theater laugh out very loud - that is something that very few comedies in recent times have been able to accomplish.
I was surprised how much I enjoyed Team America; but then I really enjoy South Park. A very entertaining (adult) cinematic excursion for the South Park creators, and an impressive display of puppetry skills (for which the sex scenes will be remembered! :)
