When a veteran politician is about to lose his latest campaign, he changes his approach and tells it like it is. The premise is outrageous and time and time again Warren Beatty's sharp and anarchistic political satire is about to go overboard (for example, the senator gives his speeches in rap), but somehow the film pulls through with its wonderfully wacky humour.
