Product description

From David Zucker, the director of The Naked Gun and Airplane!, comes a bare-knuckle comedy where no one is safe from the onslaught of lunacy! When obnoxious Hollywood director Michael Malone (Kevin Farley) organises a "Ban the 4th of July" campaign, his efforts are upended by a gang of spirits from America's past. Zucker roasts a herd of sacred cows in this latest parody featuring an all-star cast.

I love a good political satire (it’s just a shame this isn’t one)

16 June 2015

Verified Purchase

You could be forgiven for thinking that ‘Hollywood’ is pretty ‘left-wing’ in general. Pretty much every film or TV show does tend to portray right-wing Republicans as the ‘baddies’ and nice, liberal Democrats as the goodies. I guess there was always going to be a film that would challenge that stereotype. I’ve got nothing against alternate viewpoints; it’s just a shame they couldn’t do it any better than this.

Firstly, if you don’t know who Michael Moore is (or his work in documentary film-making) you’re going to struggle to ‘get’ most of the jokes here. He makes documentaries which mainly criticise what he sees as ‘flaws’ with America and the American way of life, not to mention throw in a fair few ‘anti right-wing’ references along the way. Therefore the central character in this film is ‘Michael Malone’ (subtle, huh?) – a documentary film-maker who basically looks exactly like Michael Moore and shares his liberal sensibilities. He gets recruited by foreign terrorists to produce an anti-American film for their nefarious purposes.

The film probably could have worked, if it wasn’t for the fact that all the jokes are largely ‘personal.’ Yes, Michael Moore is a large man. This means that most of the gags are based on his appearance and other problems with his physical appearance. You start being able to see them coming after a while.

Leslie Nielson his also in this (although not as much as most people would like) and his small cameos are reasonably good.

I watched this through and I did chuckle a few times. It’s not as terrible as it could have been. It’s just that its whole story is based on a political agenda and it gets a little tiring being constantly slapped in the face with the same message.

If you’re ‘ultra liberal’ you’re probably going to hate this film. If you’re ‘ultra right-wing’ you’ll probably agree with certain aspects of its message, yet still find it not that funny. However, if you’re left or right wing, as long as you hate Michael Moore, you’ll probably love this.

a hurraa-America film ordered by the USA politburo and built on cliches and very primitiv and stupit jokes. There are some funny moments, but they are overshaded by the 90% cheap agitation.

Right wing dumb political nonsense

26 September 2012

Format: DVDVerified Purchase

Okay, so Michael Moore and his films are ripe for parody, but unfortunately this film crosses the line in the sense that it goes beyond mere send-up to the point where it feels more like an attempt to completely destroy the man. It is nowhere near as clever or as funny as it would like to be and is just too downright mean-spirited to take pleasure in. Quite a downfall from filmmakers who once produced such classic spoofs as Airplane! and Naked Gun.

Worth every minute

5 November 2012

Format: DVD

By accident I stumbled into a showing of this film. Had no idea what it was but just a few minutes later I was laughing harder than I have done in a very long time. The Film is hilarious. It is a political comedy but not from the left as usual but from the right. It was very refreshing to realize that there actually is such a thing. For once we get to laugh at Michel Moore (in the film he is "Michel Malone") and not to mention the Talibans.

This is not a low key comedy film, it is a full blown big slap-stick variant and everyone realizes that it is a comedy and not something else. As such it is fun if you like to see some of your leftist favorites get the same treatment that the conservatives always get. The script and playing is better than one would expect and there are a number of A level actors in the film (like Kelsey Grammer, John Voight, Dennis Hopper, James Woods) so I was impressed. I cant recall any similar movie released in Europe (in the US the title is "An American Carol" and of course it has far better rating at Amazon then at Amazon.UK) but I could be wrong.

It was worth every minute watching.
