though it can be self-indulgent and overly juvenile, ATHF is honestly a pretty brilliant show, standing on the shoulders of Space Ghost Coast To Coast's sublime, revolutionary absurdity and somehow taking it a step further in both popularity and sheer strangeness, if not quality. but it can also be exhausting, and even in fifteen-minute installments it constantly verges on narrative implosion, so it was a pleasant enough surprise that Colon Movie Film For Theaters afforded itself a fair bit of breathing room without losing too much of its verve. as with the Reno 911 movie, it would have been interesting for the show to step out of its comfort zone a little, but there's also something to be said for sticking with what works, and for an epic, stoned non sequitur it works pretty well at feature length.
