When I first heard about this movie I thought it was going to be a little stupid and cheesey but I have to say that I REALLY enjoyed it.  It was definately a slaughter fest - gore everywhere - sheep everywhere - human sheep everywhere - sheep jokes everywhere; but it was carried out really well.  I loved the banter between Henry and the environmental activist, Experience lots of great lines.  It was a little gross at times but it was worth seeing a movie with killer attack sheep. 

This movie was actually one of the first X-rated Cartoons (of course now in this day and age, it's pretty tame - once you've seen one cartoon penis, I mean you've seen them all).   It was portrayed as more of an art film and had a lot of political and racial issues of the times.  It is actually a step back to 1972 (although I was just a very little girl at this time, I still remember the clothes and the trends).  The art in this film is pretty cool it's also a lot of fun to hear the jive talk and learn all about Fritz the cool cat who just wants friends and to get high and for everyone to like him.  This is definately different and very interesting. 

If you are not a fan of John Waters movies, do NOT watch this movie.  You have to be a true fan of his works to really get and appreciate this raunchy humor.  I know that somethings were REALLY over the top and had a lot of adolescent jokes and giggles.  Tracy Ullman's performance is as always hilarious and I think Selma Blair shows a lot of her comedic side.  Of course Johnny Knoxville is his same old jack-ass sexual deviant self, but all in all it had some fun, dirty humor that really says DON'T TAKE THIS SERIOUSLY, JUST HAVE FUN.  So every time I see a "holier-than-thou" person talking about how wrong sex is or sex education or the EVILS of adultery...I just know in a few months they will be on the news - caught at a sex party with animals or something like that...
