Much like the series, the "Family Guy"-movie was just okay and nothing more. There are a few amusing jokes and mostly the whole thing is just entertaining enough to keep watching. This show's problem has always been its lack of originality and one has to say that South Park hit the nail on the head when they made fun of the lazy writing in two of its recent episodes. "Family Guy" does mostly consist of completely random jokes that add nothing to the storyline, like a throwaway version of "The Simpsons". Once you see this formula through the whole "Do you remember when Peter did this and that"-jokes just become annoying.
Consequently "Stewie Griffin - The Untold Story" isn't so much a real "Family Guy"-movie but rather a stretched version of a regular episode that's built around countless random joke-sequences. If you're a huge fan of the show you're probably going to enjoy the movie. Personally, I think the "South Park" and even the "Beavis and Butt-Head" makers succeeded much better in producing actual movies for their respective franchises. I certainly hope "The Simpsons" motion picture will not just seem like an expanded version of a TV episode like this movie does.
