Team America: World Police
Well, the big release is today. The New York Times posted a review, but instead of reading it, you should read Ann Althouse's review of the review.
The Weekly Standard also has a review. I'm not going to read either the NYT or Weekly Standard reviews until I've seen the movie. I'll post my own review after I see it.
UPDATE (copped from Althouse): This is interesting, from Entertainment Weekly (subscription needed):
After Parker and Stone received a letter from the Oscar winner [Sean Penn]— in which he condemned them for recent comments in Rolling Stone urging uninformed voters to stay away from the ballot booths — the duo had a laugh at the actor's expense. ''It was like he missed the point,'' says Stone. Adds Parker: ''It's obvious what he's really pissed off about is that we made him into a puppet and had him eaten by a panther [in the movie].... It's hysterical, because nothing could make us happier. It's like, Spicoli's pissed at you. What does he think, we're going to be like, 'Dude, Sean Penn's pissed at us! What should we do?''' One thing they brieflyconsidered doing was taking Penn up on his offer to escort them around Iraq: ''We were going to take him over there and kick his ass,'' laughs Stone.
