For many years the Springfield Nuclear Power Plant, along with the town dwellers, has got rid of its toxic waste and garbage by discharging them into the lake. After the sinking of the barge the band "Green Day" (Billie Joe Armstrong, Tre Cool and Mike Dirnt) was performing on, Lisa Simpson (Yeardley Smith) convinces the locals to clean up the polluted lake.
But when her muddle-headed father Homer (Dan Castellaneta) dumps an overflowing silo of "Pig Crap" in it, he involuntarily causes ecological catastrophe. Induced by the treacherous adviser from the EPA, Russ Cargill (Albert Brooks), President Arnold Schwarzenegger (Harry Shearer) orders to put a giant glass dome over Springfield.
The Simpsons, however, manage to escape with a whole skin through a sinkhole in their baby Maggie’s sandbox and they flee to Alaska. Having heard of the president’s villainous plan to destroy Springfield, Homer’s wife Marge (Julie Kavner) and his kids try to persuade him to return to the town but all to no avail. Therefore Marge, along with the kids, leaves Homer. But a meeting with a medicine woman (Tress MacNeille) drastically changes his outlook and Homer comes to the conclusion that he must defy the president, once known as Terminator, so as to save the home town, which is on a razor’s edge, and reunite with his family.
"The Simpsons" is a very funny movie, loaded with dumb jokes that are often as funny as the clever ones, and full of the anarchic, generous, good-natured humor that is the show’s enduring signature.
