Not sure why this is labeled a comedy

It says here it's a comedy but I don't think the director was even trying to make a comedy. I guess the two sides lobbed a few insults at each other but they're just the stereotypical talking points that wouldn't make anyone laugh because you've seen it relentlessly. It is, however, a REALLY heavy handed lecture with the usual conspiracy theories thrown in. Most of the time the characters aren't even talking to each other, they're making longwinded speeches. And the speeches have no clear message. If we're supposed to be learning something here, I guess it's that the director is confused? Finally, the bargain budget acting talent was weak. But every part of this movie felt like it was made for a high school project so it's understandable. They might have been better with a decent script but if all you're doing is reading speeches to a camera it doesn't give you a lot of opportunity to display your skills.

If you want to make a whole movie about a political opinion, atleast make it good

Played the movie bc the description sounded like it'd be funny. 2 Washington grunts dealing with crazy bosses. But then it opens with them actually being immortal mancala players?? But I was still in, I thought this could be pretty damn funny.

Instead we then switch to China to hear an Asian man on a roof monologs at Not Hilary Clinton about America's failings. The first of many long winded speeches.

All I'm saying is, if you want to make a whole fantasy film about the election stealing conspiracy, atleast make it a thriller or comedy that someone would sit through just for entertainment. Instead this film heavy handedly continues to through people throwing out conservative talking points to exhaustion, without a single funny or interesting moment. Save time, energy, and money, and just turn on Fox News to get the same.

Political Satire, philosophy, existentialism

Played this b.c I thought it would be a comedy and in turned out to be an existential, satire sort of film with reflection on the current / past state of humanity, dosed with intermittent levity. The irony is that there is more truth in this fictional satire than many "non-fiction" movies.

There is no doubt that the reviews tied to this movie will be spammed with negative feedback and supreme downvoting of any reviews that are remotely reasonable. There's no way the censorship apparatus will permit this to become popular. Currently above six stars, guarantee it falls precipitously.

You should consider watching if youre not partisan.

Comedy, but an extremely important one

Two government workers, Tucker and Ralph, just following orders, unleash the (C) plague on the USA. They have been playing "the game" for 2000 years.

Like the Babylon Bee, this movie hits on both sides, and although it's a "comedy", there are more truth bombs contained within than 3 years of CNN.

(Politicians) are in the business of keeping the business broken. And that's why business men (implied DJT) don't have a place in government. They have no skin in the game.

Madam Evergreen (HC) pulls the puppet strings. Republicans and Democrats are beavers and racoons. And meanwhile, individualism dies.

At first I wasn't sure who Tucker and Ralph represented, justice, truth? But in the end, I think they represent the AD citizen living under the various types of government people have tried. They are all just playing the game. They follow the orders of the beavers and racoons, they are the servants of those in power. In our current culture, they don't question what they see or hear because of information fatigue, hypocrisy, a dumbing down of society.

Sheeple, falling for the illusion of democracy.

I especially enjoyed seeing VP Hoosier, who had no likeness to Pence, but of Crenshaw (what a RINO he is!)

Unfortunately, very few of the millions of people who need to see this movie will see this movie. As long as they have a beer, pizza and a TV, they'll be happy.
