Fans of Cartoon Network's Aqua Teen Hunger Force series (part of the cable channel's Adult Swim programming) know what they're in for with this feature-length extension of the nearly-indescribable animated show. Set in a rundown, Jersey suburb, Aqua Teen concerns the misadventures of three human-size characters who happen to be fast food refuse: the crude Master Shake, a discarded milkshake in a cup similar to those from McDonalds; skeptical Frylock, a flying, cardboard box of french fries; and the personable Meatwad, a piece of expired, red beef of unknown origin. Together, they go in search of a missing piece of an exercise machine that happens to be more than an exercise machine, placing them on a collision course with the likes of Oglethorpe and Emory, a pair of jagged, ridiculous creatures from the future who travel with a robot companion claiming to be the Ghost of Christmas Past. They also encounter Dr. Weird, a mad scientist given to disguises and who seeks revenge against the Hunger Force; McPee Pants, a rapping spider who wears a shower cap and diaper; and the hilarious Ignignokt and Err, two-dimensional villains from the ancient days of pokey, Atari video games. Dave Willis and Matt Maiellaro, series creators and writers-directors on Aqua Teen Hunger Force Colon Movie Film for Theaters, are wildly entertaining class clowns, but they expect the rest of us to follow them into their surreal world of postmodern animated nuttiness. The rewards, however, are plentiful. --Tom Keogh

 Non-essential May 15, 2009
Michael Dwornik
Don't get me wrong, I love me some ATHF, but I didn't think there was anything better in the movie than you can't find in the episodes. Maybe my expectations were too high, but I thought with a bigger budget and a longer running time, they could push the series to new heights, but it just seems like an overlong episode with a bad ration of hit or miss jokes.
I guess that's what I like about the tv show - it's hit or miss, but it's only 10 minutes long and then you're on to the next. The movie just kinda drags for me and I kept thinking that something huge and hilarious is about to happen, but it never really did.
Worth watching, not really worth buying. If you're not a "completest" and just want to pick up some DVDs for casual (ie stoned) viewing, pick up the series first. I do like the DVD cover though...
 Excellent April 7, 2009

If you like the show you'll love the movie. Has every character from the show up till season 4. I saw it twice in theaters and own it on dvd along side all the seasons. Its like what South Park the movie is to South Park the show they just go together like peanut butter & jelly. Number One In The Hood G.
 Never More Has The Word "Colon" Deserved To Be Within A Movie's Title... March 1, 2009
Eric Ericson (Venice, Florida USA)
Whew, try saying that title four times fast! First things first, the word "Colon" here represents the punctuation ":" rather than where they may have pulled this script out of. The further adventures of Cartoon Network's show of the same name basically is one extremely long episode of the exact same quality and look, even if they added a couple of new techniques here and there (and unsuccessfully I may add). The boys Frylock, Master Shake, Meatwad and Dennis Franz looking neighbor Carl find a mysterious machine, the Insanoflex (think home workout type) and with it may find the true answer to just who created them and where did they come from. Not to be a spoiler, they DO find those questions out, in fact at least four to five different versions of it! But much kudos should be given to it's parody-like "Let's go out to the movies and grab ourselves a treat" opening, probably the best part of the film, and no ATHF appearance there to boot! But truth be told, if you don't find the Adult Swim 00's animated humor of surrealism, awkward long pauses, and pop-culture references, plus never have seen the actual long-running show before, this film will NOT make you a fan. Not that it stinks, it just is too strange to be an ATHF start-point. However, another chockful disc with deleted scenes, specials, fake endings, a complete first draft movie (that's really what you saw in the final product minus their mouths moving [?]) and a commentary of people who have no involvement with the film whatsoever (okay one guy, but he adds nothing too). An interesting attempt at trying to make the cult show into a movie, but in the end like fast food, while it might taste great, it just isn't that good for you.
(RedSabbath Rating:6.5/10).
An ATHF Fan's Dream January 2, 2009
Sarah
This is one of those movies that comes along and grabs all of the fans of the original show, holding them in an eternal death grip that even the stuffiest of movie critics cannot break. ATHF loyalists know this film is the shizz and I am speaking from their perspective when I say this film RULES. If you have never seen an episode of Aqua Teen, stop reading right now. You won't understand this movie and you never will until you've sat down with the first five seasons of the show and watched all the episodes. But for all you fans out there, WATCH WATCH WATCH! It's got Plutonians and Mooninites and the Cybernetic Ghost of Christmas Past and even Willie Nelson makes a blink-and-you'll-miss-it cameo (yes fans, Willie Nelson. I almost died, too). Best of all, Mastodon gives an...educational...metal intro that will blow you away. Add guest voices from three SNL alumnus (Fred Armisen, Chris Kattan, and Tina Fey) and you've got one target audience males 18-34 dream.
