‘The Simpsons Movie’ review

“The Simpsons Movie” – This mid-summer “Simpsons” fix is essentially an extra-long, extra-good episode that sends the family on the run to the snowy northwest (“Clap for Alaska!”) after Homer’s latest gaffe causes Springfield to be covered by a dome. Marge and Homer deal with the biggest bump in their marriage, and Homer and Bart feud, but you know everything’s going to work out in the end. As a bonus, we get new Homer classics like “Mmm … floor popcorn” and “Why does everyone I whip end up leaving me?”
