Robin Williams. A guarantee that this is an amazing movie.

Robin is good as always but the story and every other character is a little flat

Started out amazing, but suffered after a massive shift in tone around the middle. Some wasted potential, but overall still a lot of fun.

Robin Williams is amazing as always. The movie is not good, but it worth watching just for remembering the great & talented soul Robin was.

Not bad. But it's a challenge to make a movie about politics that is highly interesting and does not feel slow.

A better kind of clown ran for election…

Bad jokes but still better than the election of 2016

Good idea. They just should have kept it simpler. Less espionage and hunt. More light hearted comedy. Williams was the right pick, though.
