Election Ratings & Reviews

  • Charles LondonFebruary 20, 2025
    Smartly written satire that doesn't rest on a single premise or joke but rather keeps the plot twisting in a fun-filled hour and three quarters. Kudos to the casting director. Reese Witherspoon and Matthew Broderick are terrific in their respective roles.
