Farting is the equaliser of the world, as we know, but as a subject for film, farting offers many traps. Less so, however, if the film is honest and is aimed at a smart audience of 8 – 12 year olds, who understand the true humanising value of a fart.

Reviews for Thunderpants
This movie should be shown in prisons so that inmates have a good reason to never return.
