    Lots of excuses

    I wont go into Pete the politician this should be about the movie. It seems that this whole movie seems more like a campaign ad. Alot of clips are about his homosexuality and how he fought the good "fight" against the horrible Trump. Even when he is shown being criticized he looks thoughtful and like the white gay savior. He says he came back to south bend because people leave there but it seems like the whole film he is absolutely trying to leave south bend behind. And he did coming into the Biden administration. He is obviously very smart and talented but It seems the only ones that like him are rich older liberal white people. He could be president or flame out and be forgotten one thing before the facts were out of the shooting in south bend he was saying it was systematic racism and police white supremacy.

    Seemed like a premature film about accomplishments not yet made

    It seemed like a celebration of someone who has not accomplished anything yet. I don't understand. It seems like the documentary a sports team gets about their championship season except, in this case, Mayor Pete has not won a game yet.

    Don't believe the 1 star nonse se

    While it may not be the greatest documentary by any standard. It's a pretty objective and entertaining look at secretary Pete's presidential campaign and these 1 star attack reviews are just from homophobic conservatives.

    Fluff & Stuff

    This is more of an advertisement than a documentary, it explores no balance or opposing side of its subjects so as a viewer your led down a path of how the main subject wants to be perceived vs a look at who this person may really be. I am more let down by the director Jesse Moss than the subjects, he was obviously influenced and maybe a bit buddy struck in his attraction to the main subject - expected more and got a lot less than even somewhat a true document of this unsuccessful presidential candidate.

    A new angle for a political campaign documentary

    Unlike the standard documentary type about a political campaign, with competitors set up as enemies and the set-up seeming to make this a campaigning vehicle, this film takes the audience into the realm of relationships between the candidate and his spouse, his campaign team, and the internal questions and conflicts. I found this much more satisfying and insightful than documentaries that treat campaigns as if they were major league sports events. I came away from this with even greater respect for the main figures. Now I would like to see the other films by this producer/ director/ writer team, too.
