Irresistible - Unwiderstehlich

Genuine honest review: Jon Stewart is always going to deliver a harsh reality. An entertaining film with enough giggles in. A lovely cast of very fine actors. Well written and well directed.

This was always going to be a left leaning film until you then realise it isn't. Hard for either side of the stale debate to shout unfair.

I enjoyed the ride but felt like I could have done with more of a rollercoaster. I felt it remained a little safe. It didn't spoil the film but prevented a higher rating.

The final act was an interesting take on the story. You could call it a twist. And the message did hit home. But I am sick to death of knowing this message and yet still NOTHING gets done to fix things. But back to the film...

This is an enjoyable film with laughs and a serious message. Worth watching just for the scene near the end where the cake is eaten on the bed. Made me laugh. I recommend this film. I recommend it to the LEFT and the RIGHT. To people who still Want to care...

At first I was thinking what kind of movie it's going to be, because Steve Carell is amazing actor in both comedy and serious movies(I hate watching trailers, I let film to surprise me by itself). After all, it was a serious movie with some sarcasm and comedy scenes which I liked. Main plot was interesting, I loved that they didn't speak a lot about Donald Trump or others politicians(as 90% films do). It surprised me in a good, ending was really unpredictable,film name had deep meaning, it's just good movie for a night. I would really recommend to watch it. Top 10 movies of 2020 for me so far.

A wonderfully scathing take on the political campaign system in America, regardless of party, and how it hurts the entire country, but especially small towns that are completely ignored except during election season.

And be sure to watch through the credits for a further reality check.

This film came out just when it needed to. An unbiased look at American politics and how BOTH parties take advantage of the very people they're supposed to help.

Top notch actors playing characters you will love and then those you love to hate. Easily could have been another run of the mill take on a story we'll all seen before, but thanks to Jon Stewart we got something refreshing that also manages to subvert your expectations.

Definitely worth a watch. 7/10

This is the brainchild of Jon Stewart who wrote and directed. A small conservative community in Wisconsin is holding an election and the Washington based political consultants decide that they will enlist the local ex-Marine and farmer as the opponent of the incumbent, and run as a Democrat.

There is a line in the movie, "This system, the way we elect people, it's terrifying. And exhausting. And I think it's driving us all insane." And that is pretty well how I feel, especially every 4 years when presidential elections come around. And this movie makes fun of that.

Overall a very good watch, my wife and I enjoyed it at home on DVD from our public library. There is a significant "twist" near the end which makes it all even more absurd.
