About this movie

Charlotte Field (Charlize Theron) is one of the most influential women in the world. Smart, sophisticated, and accomplished, she’s a powerhouse diplomat with a talent for…well, mostly everything. Fred Flarsky (Seth Rogen) is a gifted and free spirited journalist with a self-destructive streak. The two have nothing in common, except that she was his baby sitter and first crush. When Fred unexpectedly reunites with Charlotte, he charms her with his self-deprecating humor and his memories of her youthful idealism. As she prepares to make a run for the Presidency, Charlotte impulsively hires Fred as her speechwriter, much to the dismay of her trusted advisors. A fish out of water on Charlotte’s elite team, Fred is unprepared for her glamourous and high stakes lifestyle. However, sparks fly as their unmistakable chemistry leads to a round-the-world romance that becomes embroiled in a series of dangerous and outlandish incidents.

Ratings and reviews

The occasional funny moment and interesting storyline are not enough to overcome the cringeworthy sexual scenes (including masturbation) and complete lack of chemistry between the protagonists. Ugh..

cannot understand very well the meaning of family and the sacrifice of Dmain(one) and dis not taking an action.(uncomfortable and out of safe zone.)

Dont listen to anyone hating on this movie. I had my doubts about this movie upon release and there after and even when i did finally get around to it recently i even stopped watching at one point, but i came back later and so glad i did. Full of depth yet light hearted. Charlize Theron is full of charisma. Watch it
