This movie is irksome.
More irritating than any movie has a right to be.
And Melvyn DOuglas as someone else's dad again, as the 70s required.
Irritating? Why´s that? I think it´s a rather effective satire. And the fact that it´s the democrat that won the elections is pretty much beside the point here.
As for the remark about Douglas "played someone´s else´s dad again", that´s downright incomprehensible. For one thing, he was definitely too old to play "someone else´s" son (although he sort of did that in The Changeling).

it's good. better than most. but it hedges its bets in some places, the same thing it claims it's satirizing.
