Crude and stupid....and most enjoyable.

"The Campaign" is not a film to show your kids, your mother or Father O'Malley if he stops by for the evening. Why? Because the film is incredibly crude and despite no nudity and only a little bit of violence (such as when a baby and Uggie the dog are punched in the face),it earns its R rating because it is so crude. All that being said, it is still a very enjoyable film...and worth seeing. Just don't tell others, because they might think less of you.

The film is about a fictional congressional election between a dumb, sleazy womanizing incumbent (Will Ferrell) and a dumb, not as sleazy and very effeminate newbie (Zach Galifianakis). As the campaign progresses, the rhetoric between the pair becomes more and more sleazy and awful...to the point where it's simply ludicrous late in the story. Who will win and what about those rich jerks pulling the strings in this election?

As I mentioned above, the film is very crude and adult....watch it at your own risk. But it also is funny and offers some interesting insights into American politics.

The Will and Zach show

Incumbent congressman Cam Brady (Will Ferrell) runs afoul of the billionaire Motch brothers (John Lithgow, Dan Aykroyd). They decide to recruit Marty Huggins (Zach Galifianakis) to run against him.

Will Ferrell and Zach Galifianakis team up for a satire of a political campaign. This is all about the two comedians. At times, they have their funny moments. However, I must admit that I am growing tired of Will Ferrell's antics. I think it's time for him to do more serious work. Maybe it's time for him to do an evil character. His man-child persona is getting stale. Zach Galifianakis is not as over exposed or as long running. His man-child performance is still fresh and that's basically what we have here. They both act childish. Zach is more idiotic. There's no real insight into the political system. So enjoy the few jokes and I hope you didn't pay too much for them.

AMERICA, JESUS, FREEDOM

Cam Brady (Will Ferrell) is a congressman who runs unopposed. After he leaves a graphic obscene phone call at a wrong number, he becomes vulnerable. The rich Motch brothers (Koch brothers) decide they can buy this election and own a congressman in the effeminate Marty Huggins (Zach Galifianakis). The story centers around their over the top, no holds bar campaign against each other.

The film news extras include mostly the MSNBC crowd. The humor is crude and sexual such as when Marty's wife (Sarah Baker) admits "I touch myself to Drew Carey on "The Price is Right." Okay so who doesn't.

It is a satire of the American electorate who relish slogans and sound bites over substance. It makes a statement on how our nation can be bought, but not as good as Steven Colbert. At times the film becomes too over the top and loses sight of the satire.

Parental Guide: F-bombs, sex, brief nudity (Amelia Jackson-Gray)
