South Park's Trey Parker and Matt Stone lampoon Dubya's war on terror using a bunch of wooden puppets that look as though they were left over when Thunderbirds closed down. A mysterious agent, Spottswoode, approaches Broadway actor Gary Johnston to find missing weapons of mass destruction for Team America.
Johnston faces down a gang of arms smugglers led by North Korean dictator Kim Jong Il and investigates sabotage by a gang of celebrity liberals - Alec Baldwin, Tim Robbins, Susan Sarandon, Matt Damon and Sean Penn.
Not so much a movie as a collection of funny moments, political incorrectness, crude humour and weak ideas that Parker/Stone fans will adore.
