The Campaign 2012

      A North Carolina district has incumbent congressman Cam Brady running uncontested.  He’s not doing a very good job but that doesn’t matter since there isn’t any opposition.  Two powerful men recruit Marty Huggins, a very unlikely candidate, to run against Cam.  A professional campaign manager is hired to run Marty’s campaign and groom him for this political contest.
     Very funny, it does have some raunchy scenes that could have been eliminated for a better movie.  Since politics has gotten so bad that anything can happen, unbelievably, some of this has happened.  3 ½* (I liked this movie)

85 min, Comedy directed by Jay Roach with Will Ferrell, Zach Galifianakis, Jason Sudeikis, John Lithgow, Brian Cox, Jay Roach, Shane Harwell,

Note:  Blockbuster 3*, imdb 6.2 out of 10, 66% critic 54% audience on Rotten Tomatoes.
