Thanks to Lisa Simpson, Lake Springfield is cleaned up from the pollution that once fouled it. But when Homer, who's adopted a pig (Spider-pig) and dumps a silo full of the pig's waste in the lake, the EPA places a large dome over Springfield, and the Simpsons family manage to escape through a sinkhole. The family flees to a better life in Alaska, but when the head of the EPA, Russ Cargill, orders the towns destruction, it's up to Homer to save Springfield.
If you are a fan of the Simpsons television show, I'm sure you'll enjoy this film as well. I haven't watched "The Simpsons" for at least 10 years, so there were some characters I wasn't familiar with and I'm sure I missed some inside jokes that true Simpsons fans would catch. The film itself wasn't terribly original, the jokes have been done before and the blatant product placements and ads were lame. The plot was OK, but nothing special. Overall, it's not a must see unless you're a Simpsons fan.
