What Parents Need to Know

About South Park: Bigger, Longer, and Uncut

Parents need to know that this movie is much raunchier and more explicit than the TV series and anything else their child (or, for that matter, the parent) is likely to have seen. Strong language is as rampant as the dark, immature-for-the-laughs humor, and there are crass sexual references.

    An amazingly funny (but still vulgar) animated motion picture.

    This movie was very controversial in its time (I remember when it came out) because of the moderate violence, animated nudity, sexual humor, and, above all, its extreme profanity. Violence is infrequent and moderate, but still at the level of an R rating. A man jumps out of a building and falls to his death, Saddam Hussein is impaled on a spike, a boy undergoes bloody surgery, and one war scene shows characters being shot. Sexual content is more explicit, with frequent strong sexual humor, one scene showing fourth-grade boys (accidentally) viewing pornography, and four scenes with cartoon nudity (two scenes showing multiple topless female angels, one scene briefly showing a man's animated penis, and a scene where a character is shown holding two very realistic-looking sex toys, which are at first believed to be actual sexual organs). The language, however, is by far the most explicit thing about the movie, and is the only thing that you wouldn't normally find in an R-rated movie. Every possible swear word in the English language (excluding strong racial slurs) is used at least twice, with the f-words clocking in at the 100's mark. One character smokes what might be marijuana, but nothing is ever mentioned. Nearly everyone in the movie is a negative role model, but these characters are used to prove a moral about censorship. The movie does not have as many overt morals as the TV show, but it does have some good things to say. Overall, except for the frequent use of extreme profanity, there's nothing here that you won't find in the TV show (in fact, the newer episodes are worse than this movie in nearly every respect). Just like the TV show, the issue is not whether or not older teens can handle the negative content, but rather whether or not they can see through it into the real message that the movie is trying to teach.

    Explicit and innapropriate for kids

    South Park Bigger Longer and Uncut is without a doubt, innapropriate for those under 14. But it is so clever! Sure, the language is way way over the top, and the sex references are also way to explicit, but the songs and script are actually very clever. Some may assume it's just four primary school students way over their heads, but the SouthPark movie is a clever comedy that is a real winner with me.

    • Inappropriate sexual content
    • Inappropriate language

    One of my favorite movies of all time! I love South Park and this movie is great! It's definitely a must for any South park fan. It is a bit more raunchy than the show. The profanity is not censored and very frequent. There is also sexual content including animated nudity as well as animated violence/gore. This is all played for comedy and despite all the objectional content, the film has a very good message. If you're kids watch the show, the movie should'nt be a big deal.

    Hysterically raunchy!

    This is one of the best animated comedies I have ever seen and one of the best musicals I have ever seen! Note; This is an extreme raunchfest and it makes the show its based off of look like Spongebob. Parents should watch this before letting their kids see it. This is no kiddie cartoon. Note the R rating strongly.

    perfect for older people but not for people under the age of 15 - 17

    Hilarious movie! south park fans will love it! it does have very bad messages like strong languages and bad back talking to people. Buts still a very funny movie that south park fans will love (like me)

    Lots of Swear Words

    Not the best movie ever. It is really violent (but cartoon). This movie actually won the award for most curse words in an animated movie. It's kinda funny but not for kids.

    Fans of the T.V. show will laugh their heads off

    One of my personal favorite movies, South Park: Bigger, Longer, and Uncut is a hilarious movie that no fan of the T.V. show should miss. This movie is basically an hour and a half long episode of South Park uncensored. So fans of the show will be in heaven while watching this, and non-fans of the show won't bother with it. Parents should know that there is an uncountable amount of swearing and crudity in this film. I mean it, this film holds the Guiness World Record of over 400 profanities in an animated film. There is also (all animated) bare breasts, naked butts, implied sex, a sex toy, a photo of a (real life) part of the male anatomy, a porn tape watched by young boys, a war with body parts flying across the screen, a bloody heart transplant, two characters getting shot in the head, one character getting impaled on a jagged rock, and one character committing suicide. Although, parents should note that all the violence is comical and done for humor. Parents should also know that your kid(s) will definitely want to see this film, and as long as you're okay with them watching the T.V. show and you no longer have a problem with language, this film should be alright for your kid(s) to see.

    GOOD

    Not quite as good as the TV Shows. Vay more explicit, and the language is explosively fowl and constant.

    14 and up

    I love south park and i loved both the movies. *Warning* This movie has an UNBELIEVABLE AMOUNT OF PERVAUSIVE AND STRONG VULGAR LANGUAGE THROUGHOUT and also has some very innappropriate sexual humor. It has some pretty bloody cartoon violence too. I would NOT recommend this film for kids 13 and under.
