The Movie's left wing bias is obvious. Everyone has a bias. Everyone has an agenda. So that shouldn't surprise anyone. There is a heavy handed product here and a noble one. It is put together quite well and the performances from all involved are very good.
It is the over written, over the top script that fails the Movie and muddles the message. It has been blasted for its completely Liberal bias, but there are things here that are not at all favorable to the Democrats. The President is not without faults and at times seems quite a buffoon ("too bad about the Munster Cheese") and there is one major plot point that is nothing less than damning to the Dems.
Sometimes it comes across as complete hooey and frankly disappointing with glaring signs of weak writing ideology. The Nominee's " I believe in..." speech has a ridiculous feel to it and the President's last address is as corny as it gets with swelling, obtrusive Music. This is at best a good, if inconsistent, try at postulating a position and at worst an embarrassing episode of Political grandstanding.
