It's hilarious and heartwarming, but the political part is a bit rambunctious

The comedy part is still hilarious and sweet, and Seth Rogen can bring anything down to earth. However, the political setting inside is a big bug. From Seth Rogen's reaction to his good friend being the GOP, it can be speculated that the Republican Party in this world is as corrupt as in reality, and the relationship between the president and the fake fox boss in the play is so Well, it must be the Republican president. The secretary of state chosen by the Republican president must be loyal to the Republican Party. The Secretary of State needs the support of the incumbent Republican president for the presidential election, obviously for the core Republican voters, that is, red necks, Christians, racists, neo-Nazis and Stupid people who only watch fox channels, then the female protagonist will inevitably lose basic voters if she rebels. How will she run for elections after that? Join the Democrats? The Democratic Party's own candidates with strong roots are waiting in line. Even if they are lucky enough to be accepted by the Democratic Party, they will run against dozens of candidates with liberal and even socialist ideas by focusing on environmental protection and telling the truth and doing practical things. It's impossible to win. They are all honest and caring candidates for the environment. They also advocate strict gun control, universal medical insurance, citizens' wages, and student loan waivers. And their husbands haven't shot him in the face... But Assuming the plot in the play can come true, I still hope that the United States can have a beautiful female president like Theron, and Seth Rogen is her conscience ( ˃᷄˶˶̫˶˂᷅ )

    7/10 is still the old routine of Seth Rogen, but the conceptual change of female politician + talented diaosi gives this film a very fresh feeling, and it does not violate the harmony. The most important thing is that there are absolutely enough jokes, all kinds of insinuations of senior officials in the United States and Canada and the media (Fox News was killed); many absurd settings are not very abrupt, but are a plus point for this comedy. And, who gave the "long process" of translation, you don't need to compile it like this, right?

    There are still jokes. But too much to please the audience, whether it's the dirty part, the romance part, or the "political" part. Just, watch and play.

  • Fred Flarsky: I'm a racist, you're a Republican, I don't know what the fuck's going on.

  • Fred Flarsky: [wearing traditional Swedish dress as a joke played at his expense] Okay, but you dressed me like Cap'n Crunch's Grindr date, so I'm going to drink and enjoy the part.
