An interesting movie

It doesn't very often but from time to time, a movie end up being much better than I thought it would be. It is really rare but it does happen and this flick is a perfect example. Indeed, I thought it would be really lame because I only heard bad things about it but it was actually not bad at all. As a matter of fact, I really liked the first part which worked as a satire but, unfortunately, I wasn't so found of the the second part which looked more like a thriller. So, it is indeed rather unfocused and flawed but there were some good ideas and a terrific cast (Robin Williams, Christopher Walken, Laura Linney, Jeff Goldblum, Tina , Amy Poehler), above all Christopher Walken was awesome as usual. So, instead of a bad flick, I ended up with a movie with a good concept which was just poorly developed but since I have weak spot for movies dealing with politics, there were many things I enjoyed here, especially the first half. To conclude, though not completely successful, it is actually a decent political satire mixed with a weak thriller but it is still worth a look, especially if you like the genre.
