I Griffin - La storia segreta di Stewie Griffin

The entire first half of the movie is the family guy you love. Fart Jokes, Random Flashbacks, and how horses are bad people. With Character appearances such as the Greased Up Deaf guy, Randy Newman, Evil Monkey, and others, why else would you not want to see it?

However, the second half is where it truly gets into Stewie's story, no spoilers here, but you'll notice towards the end that a lot of loose ends are left...loose. Also, the ending (At least when it says "The End") is slightly lackluster. But I only noticed this on my second time through.

Other than that, this movie is beautifully done and features probably the most loved character from all the shows...The Greased Up Deaf Guy.

In conclusion, one of the funniest movies out there, but plan on sharing it among friends, because you might not be watching it more than once.

Thanks Seth Macfarlane for this freakin' awesome movie!

PS: I was disappointed that Meg's sex scene was cut out. It was so tastefully done!

i ADORE family guy, i do. And the movie was.. GOOD, but honestly, I expected GREAT! i think some episodes were funnier than this movie. OK, well at least on the same par. I do like that they didn't overuse the "F" word just because they could. It made them saying it, that much funnier.

What I liked least about it was that it was constructed in 3 segments. They all sort of followed the plot, but it was more like 3 episodes in order. Yes, stuie is still looking for his father, but every half an hour, I feel like the opening credits just started all over again. It shouldn't have been THAT HARD to make a movie flow smoothly.

It was funny, but not like the South Park movie funny. When that came out, it was worth it cause you were laughing the whole time. This movie had some seriously funny parts, but it was pretty mild for the most part. The opening is really funny though, unfortunately, thats where I laughed the hardest.

Originally released on dvd as a standalone film, Stewie Griffin: The Untold Story was later added to the official episode canon of Family Guy. The story is interesting enough, it's essentially an 80 minute "Road to" episode. When run in syndication, it's split up into three episodes, which makes sense.

It definitely wasnt just a cash grab, as these episodes are only available on this dvd. Therefore, if you're a dvd collector of the series, you'll be happy. All of the same sort of cutaways and gags are used here, as in the TV show, so the continuity is there. As well as the cast and crew. It makes sense though since it's actually part of the shows canon.

It was weird watching this movie because I've seen nearly every episode of "Family Guy" and it was easy to recognize this movie as being adapted into three episodes of the TV show. Now there was enough material here for four episodes, but they trimmed it down to three in the actual show. I admit that I'm not a fan of "Family Guy", but this was still enjoyable. Besides, it wasn't really until later that "Family Guy" became particularly hated. I counted 45 cutaway gags in this movie! What's interesting here is that there are a lot of things that really do build up.

The thing was, I didn't get a feeling that this was epic enough for a movie. It still didn't seem large scale. Of course, it probably was better than most episodes of the actual show. There are lots of funny little lines here and there. I especially love the opening sequence where they talk about how they're rolling out the red carpet for a direct to video movie. With all the awful direct to video movies I've seen this month, this was quite refreshing. It has some good satire in it and it doesn't really seem like "Family Guy" will ever get a theatrically released movie, unlike "My Little Pony", hee hee. ***

That, however, is not a bad thing...to many times in these situations the people who make the show may try to do something completely different and it really isn't as good as the show, but here it is. Though really, it is only three unaired episodes of the show with a movie premier scene to bookend them. The first two of these episodes are really funny, with the second stint being my favorite, I just about died at the spider man joke and the thundercats one. The third act is funny, but not quite up to the first two. The main point of the storyline is Stewie as the three episodes sort of have the same theme to them and it looks like it was sort of a three parter with two and three being more of the loop than the first one. Stewie has a near death experience, not only that he has seen a man that looks just like him on the television and he is convinced that it is his real father rather than Peter and this sends him and Brian on a trip to San Francisco. Once there a startling (well not startling by this show's standards) is made. Very funny overall, if you like the show you should enjoy this. My main complaint is that it is supposedly uncensored...well if that is the case why is the curse words beeped out?
