one of my all time favorite movies. it actually takes political stances which is rare in hollywood's lowest-common-denominator model, but doesn't alienate viewers with them. at it's core, this movie is a love story which douglas and bening pull off fantastically. but that love story is very substantially surrounded by political and personal plotlines that are as equally engaging. by the end of the film you genuinely care for the president as well as his staff. and regardless of your politics, you will certainly wish our real world political leaders embodied more of their patriotism and humanity. the script is intelligent and nuanced but not hit-you-over-the-head political while somehow managing to keep the focus on the developing romance. douglas' president is believable as the leader of the free world yet personally vulnerable. bening is just luminous. michael j fox and martin sheen are not to be missed in this film. just a good time all around. some adult language but in realistic context. feel free to watch this with your teenagers and show them something to be happy about the people in american politics.Read full review
