The 2007 animated comedy Aqua Teen Hunger Force Colon Movie Film For Theaters stars Dana Snyder, Dave Willis, Carey Means, Andy Merrill, and Matt Maiellaro. It is devised by Dave Willis, Matt Maiellaro, and Jay Wade Edwards. The managers are Matt Maiellaro and Dave Willis.
The movie opens with Master Shake, Meatwad, and Frylock escaping from the back of the Sphinx only to be attacked by a giant poodle. The poodle kills Frylock before being destroyed by Master Shake. Frylock is later revived by Time Lincoln, a reputation Shake and Meatwad meet after leaving Egypt. After the three of them escape government agents by fleeing in a wooden spaceship, it is revealed to the viewer that these events were all an elaborate story formulated by Shake. Later on, Meatwad decides to coordinate a concert to attract girls. Master Shake convinces him that it won’t work because women like men with outstanding bodies. He claims to have a great body because he works out on a machine. We are then shown that the machine, the Insanoflex, has without doubt or question never been used. Frylock goes on the internet to find instructions for assembling it. The web site he visits warns him not to ever put it together.
Then, he calls a special number which connects him to the phone of Oglethorpe and Emory, the Plutonians. They don’t answer the phone because they are too busy being admonished with regards to the Insanoflex by the Cybernetic Ghost of Christmas Past from the Future. Frylock, Shake, and Meatwad put the machine all together except for one missing piece. They find an address with the machine and determine to go there and search for it. Meanwhile Oglethrope, Emory, and the Ghost, having just broken into the Aqua Teen’s house and barbarically interrogating their neighbor Carl, find the same address and get there just in front of them. Unable to locate the missing piece, the Plutonians leave. Frylock, Shake, and Meatwad arrive and find the piece. They head back to their house and put it in with Carl attempting the Insanoflex first, seeing as Master Shake had in the first place stolen it from him. But it doesn’t go as expected. The machine transforms into this giant robot, with Carl strapped in and forced to exercise. The robot wreaks mayhem all over the downtown area, dropping it is eggs everywhere.
The kind of comedy that is displayed in this movie is similar to that of South Park, even though not almost at the same level. There are graphic sequences in Aqua Teen that are intended to add humor. Most of these sequences occur towards the end. One such example is the scene when Dr. Weird slices off Carl’s muscles to use as his own to fight Frylock. Weird disguises himself as his girlfriend to get close to him. When they are with regards to to sleep together, Weird reveals his unfeigned self to Carl and says while keeping a big knife, “This is going to hurt, a lot!” Master Shake, Frylock, and Meatwad break into the loft when they listen their neighbor screaming in agony. Dr. Weird steps out of the bedroom having in some way attached his head to Carl’s muscular body. As he and Frylock get started to fight, Shake and Meatwad go into the bedroom and find Carl’s mangled body with Carl still alive.
Another graphic scene happens soon after when Master Shake tries to take a teddy bear with all kinds of sharp instruments sticking out of it. He comes over to grab it from Dr. Weird and cuts his own hand off. A few minutes later, he tries again only to lose the other hand. Afterward he gives up and says, “Forget it. I don’t want it.”
The storyline is good except for one thing. Towards the end, it seems to forget regarding a peculiar part. At this time, the story seems to forget with regards to the Insanoflex machine and focus exclusively on the origin of the Aqua Teens. It is only cited once in the final scenes of the movie. I may give away a good deal of of the ending here so if you don’t want to know, I suggest you skip the remainder of this paragraph. At the end, there’s still a loose end that is never tied up and that end is the Insanoflex’s eggs. A solution to ruin them is never discovered. This opens the door to a possible sequel, but it doesn’t seem as altho the writers had intended it to. Every movie that I’ve seen that has a sequel has at least a heap of reminder at the very end of the unsolved problem, but this film does not. This is what makes me wonder whether this was the intent of the writers.
To wrap, if you’re into the kind of graphic humor that South Park demonstrates but at a much less intense level, then Aqua Teen Hunger Force Colon Movie Film for Theaters is your kind of film.

Theatrical Trailer
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 worries the misadventures of three human-size characters who take place to be fast feed 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 associate claiming to be the Ghost of Christmas Past. They likewise encounter Dr. Weird, a crazy scientist given to disguises and who seeks revenge versus 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 agreeably diverting class clowns, but they suppose the rest of us to follow them into their surreal world of postmodern animated nuttiness. The rewards, however, are plentiful. –Tom Keogh

 Well…I loved it!
By Jesse
After reading a great deal of criticisms from the press and seeing similar reviews on amazon I am conscious that this makes me the minority….but I loved it. Aqua Teen Hunger Force Colon movie wasn’t supposed to be the next best movie of all time. It was made with underneath a million dollars and wasn’t even a wide release. Everyone expected it to get panned, and we knew all along that this would be a movie rigorously for the fans. And the fans love it!
Everyone in the theater seemed to love it too. The initial 30 minutes are admittedly the best, but people were cracking up beauteous much up until the end. If you like the Aqua Teen Hunger strength show, you ought to like this. It is precisely what you would figure the movie to be: It is structured the same way the shorts are, but with much more content. Actually, when you take one of the seasons on DVD and do the “play all” that’s basically the equivalent of observing this movie. Yeah, there is a plot line consistent through the movie, but that plot line is paper thin. Essentially, you could get started the movie halfway through and wouldn’t feel like you missed anything.

You either get it or you don’t.
By Rian Bashaw
Look, if you like the show, this is like a marathon. If you didn’t get it in the introductory place, then why are you concerned with it? It was made for US. The fans. And the big majority of us enjoyed it. My girlfriend even laughed a few times, and she had no idea what was going on.
Plus, the Mastodon song in the opening sequence…PRICELESS.

 Let’s Be Reasonable People
By Brian Seiler
Those who know me recognise I love Aqua Teen Hunger Force. Sometimes. The writers are good at finding things that are funny that other persons don’t. Sometimes. This series has been the source of assorted ten minute spurts of hilarity that may never be matched in my lifetime. But just some. And that’s genuinely the problem. Even for the initiated, indoctrinated Aqua Teen Hunger Force fan, a few of the shows just don’t click. I think that Hand Banana was hilarious and Grim Reaper Gutters was pretty aweinspiring and Global Grilling is just ho hum. That’s just this season.
One of the charms of the Adult Swim block on television is that if you don’t like what’s on, it’s wholly possible that ten minutes from now, it won’t be any more. If a joke falls flat for these writers on television, it’s a short experience, without apparent effort forgotten by the viewer when he tunes in again and gets a hilarious payoff. In a movie theater, however, that queer privilege of their firstborn format goes away and you’re left with a film that’s up and down and in the long run doesn’t pay out as much as you might suppose it to.
Now, don’t get me faulty – fans of the show will have to buy the movie. The extras are thick and meaty, and the film is at least agreeably diverting sufficient for a person well indoctrinated in the series that it will be more pleasurable than not. For a viewer who’s never heard of this Aqua Teen Hunger Force thing, however, my sincerest counsel is to run as far and as fast as you perchance can, because you will hate this movie. Not just dislike – hate.
Any time a movie doesn’t even undertake for big segments of the audience (the majority, in this case), you have to rate it accordingly, particularly given the fact that fans of the show are only going to read these reviews to find something they disagree with and argue when it comes to it. So, yeah – intermediate viewers, think of this three as more of a one and a half with a big fat caution.
Seriously, though – there were a good deal of pretty splendid gags. The opening parody reel ought to be shown before each single film freed for the next ten years, because it’s a neat and effective way of expressing what we’re all thinking. After that, however, you get a sort of bumpy ride of chuckles and boredom. I didn’t personally find big constituents of the story to be that satisfying, and the whole thing seemed to me like the writers were straining a little bit.
There is reason for optimism, though. As a backer of the show, I have felt obliged to buy this movie, and if only for the extras and the good parts, I think it was worth the cash I remunerated for it. The film likewise turned over something like ten times it is budget, so we might be competent to somewhat suppose this sort of treatment for other Adult Swim programming in the future. And, as I hope I’ve beaten into the ground by now, the amusive bits are somewhat funny. I just have a hard time with a movie where as a great deal of of the gags fall flat as this one.
Bottom Line: this film is ONLY, and I will stress that ONLY part, for the already-established fan. If you’re a new person looking into just what this Aqua Teen Hunger Force is all about, I’d have to commend that you get started with the basi or second season DVDs (I actually started with the fourth) and see if the show is at all to your liking before you consider picking up this movie.
