I went to see this film with big hopes and Seth McFarlane almost delivered.
Before I say anything else it would have been great to have two lots of dialogue and some scenes altered so that there was a kids version as well. I was a bit horrified when an acquaintance of mine had taken his 10 year old son and the kid was quoting "Fuck" lines from the film.
But here's what I liked.
The humour- because he's original daring and very wrong.
I've never been in to topical references because they can become dated, so we'll see how this dates. As for now it's box office gold and if it's pop culture based and not political it's less likely to date. We still know the Brady Bunch but not the politics of 1970.
The story - there were two strong storylines and he didn't go off track.
