It's just funny, please everyone red and blue stop getting your underwear and panties bunched up and twisted in a knot over a movie. Breathe, 1, 2, 3, 4... of course breathe with a mask on... We need a little political humor because everyone is so cranky these days, omggg, lighten up. The movie is funny it's not intended to get our blood boiling, OK?! p.s. The person who wrote this movie has toilet humor, never seemed to watch Steve's movies before. Just saying.

A poignant film...for 2016. Jon Stewart has always been a sharp commentator on the state of our current politics, and he brings that same wit and insight into this film. Unfortunately, the issues that the film raise seem deeply out of touch for its release date of 2020. While the issues it raises are certainly still present in today's state of politics, his attack on campaign finances, partisanship, and the media come off as overly broad and disjointed rather than a coherent and cohesive critique.

I havent watched the movie just yet.. but instead of seeing the preview from Google, I had to youtube it. The link from google preview wasnt working. I think we all need some political humor rolling back in our lives, everyone is stressed out, unhinged and bonkers nowadays. I loved the preview and will be watching Steve Carell in my home theater very soon... ..... also, if I hate this movie.... I will give my best unbiased feedback lol
