| Go See This Movie (by sonnyboa) |
| Robin Williams as President elect, Tom Dobbs, could not have played the part any better. As a fan of the upcoming genre of Comedy News, character Tom Dobbs does an excellent job telling the political view point as we see it as common Americans. The movie as a whole was truly a roller-coaster of events. The beginning builds up to a climax, then its all down hill as events destabilize the plot for short periods of time, tosses your emotions around through barrel rolls of comedy and drama, and manages to re-assemble the story for a nice clean cut ending. I recommend Man of the Year to all <more> |
| Very funny and Very scary as an American and a Democrat (by jessie-39) |
| We start all of our reviews with the following information. My wife and I have seen nearly 100 movies per year for the past 15 years. Recently, we were honored by receiving lifetime movie passes to any movie any time at no cost! So we can see whatever we want whenever we want. The point of this is that CRITICS count for ZERO. Your local critics or the national critics like Ebert are really no different than you or me. The only difference is that they get to write about the movie and are forced to see hundreds of movies whether they want to or not.Therefore, it is our belief that if you get <more> |
| Better than people will say (by dead-canaanite) |
| When taken as a whole for its ideas and dissection of the current 2-party system and political process, I think this is a great film. Granted the movie was not the comedy I expected, but once I got over that this film really made me think. So much of what we see and hear in regards to any election is such a joke. There is in particular a debate scene in this movie that I felt was a masterful critique of our political debates and how policies are "discussed" at them. I encourage anyone who thinks our process is fine to go see this film. If you want something to laugh at however, <more> |
| More serious than what I would have thought... but still really good! (by chay-nicole-b) |
| Robin Williams is a genius. One of the best comedians in the world. He really shows off in this one, cracking jokes left and right as the talk show comedian Tom Dobbs. From the previous this looked like it would be a side-splitting laugh fest. And it was funny. But there were a lot of serious parts in the movie that I was not expecting. I would describe it as a drama/comedy. But it's still worth the money to see, and I still found it to be almost everything that I expected. Robin Williams is at his best, along with the famous Christopher Walken. They play a very good team in this movie <more> |
| fun and idealistic (by perlner) |
| OK, so this movie isn't the best political satire of the year. In fact, there's surprisingly little actual political commentary, due to them using fake candidates instead of real politicians.But as a story of good people who want to do the right thing, it hits home.Not only is it funny how could it not be with Robin Williams headlining, and Lewis Black a prominent supporting cast member? but it's a compelling romance and thriller. The bad guys are refreshingly non-evil - they only go as far as they have to in order to get what they need, and they're not portrayed as insane <more> |
| A comedian for President? Could it happen? Maybe it should! (by jeezycreezy-1) |
| After seeing RV, I went to this film expecting to waste 10 bucks with nothing to show for it but popcorn butter stains on my pants, however I must say that this is the best Robin Williams comedy in over a decade! A fabulous mixture of tried and true actors and top of the line comedic talent bring to light the polarization of the American political system without boring us to death with a lot of trivia. Christopher Walken is spectacular and lends validity to the film that might have limped along without it while Louis Black, while subdued in a minor role, stands out with some of the funniest <more> |
| timely and funny, a worth see! (by chrissyafrica) |
| I completely disagree with the other comments! I too saw this film at an early screening and found it quite enjoyable. Robin Williams is in top form. True, the tone is familiar, but it is Williams of Good Morning Vietnam: smart, funny, on point. After too many dark turns, Williams is finally back to what he does best. The supporting actors give great performances, especially Laura Linney and Chris Walken. Chris plays himself, as usual, but as the "agent" to the next president he was a delight each time on screen. Lewis Black plays only himself basically, but he is wonderfully well <more> |
| Like Politics, most of America will appreciate this. (by EricBosarge) |
| The movie is more of a mockumentary of corruption in the whole American system. The correlations of those who vote who do not matter is so proved in the machines that end of voting a comedian to the oval office. Politicians are such a joke that we almost need a comic to represent us as we have been laughed at for years around the world. Bushism's have become a way of life for Americans and will be the only thing left after he leaves office none to soon. Oddly the only person of honesty is someone not even elected to the position and tells the truth in the end. The story is very subtle and <more> |
| Quaint political satire with notches of comedy, Williams shines again with Levinson at side (by Doctor_No) |
| A political satire of a comedian Williams who after dissing the political campaigns and presidents is forced into the running. But shockingly we wins and makes a mockery of the office. "Man of the Year" is not the funniest movie nor the best but in small doses it does work. Williams again teaming with Levinson after a hit with "Good Morning, Vietnam". The two seem to have a great chemistry and work off each other. I am not comparing them to Scorsese and DeNiro but you can get the picture. Although I wouldn't quite say to rush out there and see the movie in theaters I <more> |
