Tripping the Rift: The Movie is a Canadian-made animated science-fiction film based on the television series "Tripping the Rift". The film was directed by Bernie Denk and written by Chuck Austen, Steve Krantz, and Chris Moeller. It stars various voice actors including Stephen Root, Maurice LaMarche, Jenny McCarthy, and John Melendez.

The plot of the film revolves around the main character, Chode McBlob, a purple alien smuggler, who is tasked with delivering a strange package to a planet called Delve 9. Along the way, Chode and his crew find themselves being pursued by a dangerous enemy, the Dark Clown Empire, who wants the package for themselves. Meanwhile, the crew also has to contend with a new member, the ambitious and sexual Six, who is intent on usurping Chode's position as captain.

The film is full of irreverent humor, crude jokes, and sexual innuendo. The animation is primarily computer-generated, with a colorful and detailed design of the futuristic universe in which the story takes place. The characters are all unique, with exaggerated features and personalities, which add to the film's comedy.

The film utilizes a variety of sci-fi elements, including time travel, alternate dimensions, and advanced technology. The different worlds, characters, and gadgets all contribute to the film's nonsensical nature. It is not meant to be taken seriously, as its absurd humor is meant to be enjoyed, not analyzed.

Stephen Root plays the lead character, Chode McBlob. Root, known for his work in "Office Space" and "NewsRadio", brings his signature comedic style to the role of the snarky and ruthless captain. Maurice LaMarche plays the voice of Gus, the robot who serves as the ship's pilot. LaMarche, best known for his work in "Futurama" and "Pinky and the Brain", brings a similar deadpan humor to his performance. Jenny McCarthy voices Six, the seductive new crew member who causes tension and drama among the group. John Melendez plays Whip, a cyborg who is a member of Chode's crew.

The film's pacing is quick, with a lot of action and comedic moments. The plot is straightforward, but the humor is the real focus of the film. The film frequently breaks the fourth wall, with characters addressing the audience directly and making meta references to the film's budget and production values.

Overall, Tripping the Rift: The Movie is an entertaining and ridiculous film that will appeal to fans of the original television series and those who enjoy adult animated comedies. The film is not meant to be taken seriously and does not attempt to be anything more than what it is - a silly and fun adventure.
