Politically charged and funny as hell this satirical movie is a must see for anyone remotely interested in politics and anyone who can laugh at something besides fart jokes.

On a lark, this late-night talk show host decides to run for office. Amazingly, he gets elected. Williams, in all his looniness, comes across as a likable guy. It?s always a pleasure to see stuffed-shirt posturing lose out to common sense in a debate.

One of Robin Williams best movies. A bit slow at times but the great comedy and jokes more than make up for it.

An OK movie. It is too bad American politics is not like this - where a straight talking guy can actually win the presidential race.

Robin Williams is a terrific performer and earns the viewer's sympathy, but the film does not seem to know what it wants to be. It is neither a comedy nor a thriller nor a drama even though it offers a few scenes from each of those genres, because the scenes are disconnected and ...( read more)

It was a disturbing blend of comedy and a thriller about government conspiracy cover-ups. Robin Williams and Laura Linney were decent, but it wasn't either's best efforts. The story was the true downfall of this movie, completely changing out of left field. It would've been best ...( read more)

Not the typical comedy, great story line and a good deal of suspense in there as well. A good mixture of comedy and suspense for sure!

Mediocre but not as memorable. I think I saw it in theaters?.. I think?

March 25, 2007This movie was nastier than a 5 week old caviar/ squid pizza- just a kind word or warning: don't watch this unless you already hate Robin Williams, because if you loved him (like I did prior to watching this bastard child of a comedy), you will end this movie wondering just WHY you could previously stand watching someone who would agree to be in such an atrocious movie.
Take it from me, I'm just warning the general public out of the kindness of my heart and love for many of the poor, obviously misguided actors who starred in this atrocity. You guys need to read the scripts before you sign onto a movie as horrific as this one! -
March 22, 2007i liked it..... not really in "robin-williams" kind of movie, but still nice filled time.....
