Strange and compelling
21 July 2008
This is a strange and compelling movie. Mix of adrenaline filled excitement of a news flash and a touch of dryness that even the best of old-fashioned documentaries suffer from. The premise is very simple and straightforward. Somebody shoots president Bush and what happens after that fictional scenario. The movie makers are not being just anti-Bush in the most obvious way, they construct a very plausible outcome of such an act.The actors, mostly Americans are extremely believable and add an eerie touch of authenticity to this grim proceedings.This whole thing is probably in a very poor taste, but claiming to lead the Free world opens us up for all kinds of speculations. Nobody likes the self-proclaiming leader, even when he is occasionally right.
