President ? Why not.

I liked the movie. I see a movie for the pure enjoyment. When Robin Williams is in a comedy, he is at his best. I'd like to think a comic can become president, after all... Full Review

Those expecting a penetrating satire from Barry Levinson, along the lines of his "Wag the Dog" (1997), may be disappointed by "Man of the Year," in which a comedian becom... Full Review

Disappointing

This movie appears to be a comedy and made an attempt to be just that. It also made a surprise attempt to be a political thriller. The effort put into the subplots was... Full Review

Flop of the year

First of all, the actual film is nothing like what the commercials would have you think it is. The ads make Man of the Year look like a screwball comedy. Actually, it's a... Full Review

Williams is as flat as the politicians he mocks

All the humor in this film can pretty much be seen in the trailer. The trailers create a very misleading impression of the film. It is really not a light comedy at all.... Full Review

I think the previews are a bit misleading. They make you think you get to see Robin Williams in a comical role as president of the U.S. Instead, all you get is a really f... Full Review

A real shame. A dropped ball.

Great actors, great talent and a dropped ball. Female lead acts too confused throughout and the movie never decides whether it is a comedy or serious. Williams gets to sh... Full Review

Don't waste your money

Forget the commercials, this is not a comedy. It starts out that way, but most of the movie is a boring "thriller" about a glitch in the software for computerized voting... Full Review
