Revenge of the Leftists
Added 10/6/2009
...should have been the title of this flick. Michael Douglas is a very fine actor, and the scriptwriters are happy to provide us with standard Hollywierd fare. Here we have an incredibly cool, Leftist President with a gorgeous girlfriend and an impossibly cute daughter, fighting off all of those evil conservatives. If the script could have avoided gagging the viewer with a high-pressure liberal rant, this could have been a charming movie about a handsome cool widower President and a gorgeous and charming girfriend. That alone would, or at least could, have made for great entertainment. But no, we simply have to take our medicine in the form of 200 proof Leftist bias, and unfortunately many of us just can't choke it down.
If you don't mind the bias, there is a decent (not great) movie in here somewhere. Good luck finding it. RJB.

Fine actors, poor movie
Added 5/18/2009
All these actors have distinguished themselves in many other roles and Sorkin has written some great tv (West Wing, anyone?), which is why it is sad to say that this is a poor film. Some good lines of dialogue cannot cover the preposterousness of the story, with a president too liberal for conservatives and sometimes too conservative for liberals!! It swerves too much and really only gets going in the last five minutes. In fact, it ends JUST as it was about to get really freakin' interesting!!
