    Kevin Kline pulls double duty in Dave. Kline plays both President Bill Mitchell, knocked out of commission during an extramarital tryst, and Dave Kovic, an occasional presidential impersonator secretly brought in to act the part on a long-term basis.

    I don't remember much about it.

    Heartwarming movie about a guy who looks like the president. When the president falls ill, his like-a-like steps in. Good cast.

    This is a great movie, I wish this guy really was president!! (the double, not the real president in the movie.)

    How can I watch this movie?

    A very inspiring film, and it is wonderfully cast. Kevin Kline is excellent. A very far fetched idea is made surprisingly believable. Very much a "feel good" movie. Well written, always interesting.

    Kevin Kline & Sigourney Weaver do not light up the screen and with a plot this interesting that's a shame.

    This was the first time I thought "Sigourney Weaver might be hot". Later I was proved right.

    This was an excellent movie...it had the right amount of everything. Smoochies to Sigourney...
