coldstick Review of Stewie Griffin: The Untold Story

Stewie Griffin: The Untold Story (2005 Video)

Finally, an animated movie that doesn't suck.

[10/10 · 19 October 2005]

If you're a fan of the show, you should know exactly what to expect here: rapid-fire gags. As usual, some of it falls flat--but the bits that work are funny enough to make this 80-something minute of a "movie" worth watching. There isn't much of a story, nor should there be. Just joke after joke. I was hoping that since it was straight to video and unrated, it would be more tasteless and raunchy, but alas, since this was originally made for TV, you won't find anything incredibly risqué. Oh yeah, and the moron DVD designers have the EDITED version set as the default (!!). Why they would even include a censored version, let alone set it as the default, is beyond me; but make sure you click on "languages" and choose "uncut" the first time you watch. I didn't, and after I figured it out, I was pretty p***ed off.
