⭐ Featured Review

An enjoyable comedy
by Gordon-112013-09-03

"This film is about a race between two congressman candidates in North Carolina. "The Campaign" is a fun and light hearted mockery of modern American politics, but it is also surprisingly real in terms of what could possibly happen in a real election campaign. The plot is funny and really gets me laughing, but I am the most impressed by the emotional ending that conveys a victory to morality. Another thing that really stands out is the Asian maid who speaks with an amazing African and also Spanish accent. I enjoyed watching this film!..."

Note the size of Cam Brady's (Will Ferrell's) U.S. Flag lapel pin. As he begins to flounder in the polls, the flag grows until it is at least four to five times larger than the original.
