In the aftermath of the 2016 election, Democrats scramble to regain the Heartland with a local mayor election in Deerlaken, Wisconsin. Both parties pour money into this small campaign.

If you liked the Jon Stewart of 2-12-2015 who blew up CNN"s Crossfire and got Tucker Carlson canned (he has stopped wearing bow ties to this day) You will love this film. Stewart criticism of the nation's polarization, blaming the media, blaming the whole political system comes to the screen. In the first 12 minutes, he lets you know what is right and what is wrong with the Democratic party. Loved the ending.

To be honest I might have issues to find really good people on one side. At least on the political aspects of the whole thing. And if you're honest, than the character portrayed by Byrne is effectively more evil overall. That being said, Steve Carrell also has a lot of moments, where he has to apologize.

And the movie tells us how wrong the two party system is, it shows how it takes advantage of people and then spits them out once it is done with them And that is true with almost all politicians. I personally think someone like Bernie Sanders is different, but that is my personal opinion. And overall you should be able to enjoy this, no matter what political affiliation you have. And maybe even reflect on some things you believed were true and rearrange your opinion on those things or something else

Ah finally, the scammers get scammed, and the screwers get screwed! While hitting as many politically correct buttons as it can, the film offers a scathing indictment of our traditional political system and how money plays such an integral part of getting someone elected. That one scene of CNN's 'duodecabox' was so poignant; how many times have you watched a political panel where everyone talks at once and you can't tell what anyone is saying? Makes you want to change the channel right there. With perfect poise at the end of the story, Diana Hastings (Mackenzie Davis) looks political consultant Gary Zimmer (Steve Carell) right in the eye and tells him it wasn't personal. One of the best twists you could have expected in this story of consultants gone wild and spending the Benjamins like there was no tomorrow. Not that this is something that would ever happen for real. In that respect, the film calls to mind 2004's "Welcome to Mooseport", in which ex-President Gene Hackman runs for small town mayor against Ray Romano. That one's a little more on the humorous side with a host of well worn former TV celebrities. This one starts out shaping up to be a battle for the heart and soul of Deerlaken, Wisconsin, but quite cleverly results in the winner being the town's own citizens.
