The Campaign Free movie streaming When long-term congressman Cam Brady (Will Ferrell) commits a major public gaffe before an upcoming election, a pair of ultra-wealthy CEOs plot to put up a rival candidate and gain influence over their North Carolina district. Their man: naïve Marty Huggins (Zach Galifianakis), director of the local Tourism Center. At first, Marty appears to be the unlikeliest possible choice but, with the help of his new benefactors' support, a cutthroat campaign manager and his family's political connections, he soon becomes a contender who gives the charismatic Cam plenty to worry about. As Election Day closes in, the two are locked in a dead heat, with insults quickly escalating to injury until all they care about is burying each other, in this mud-slinging, back-stabbing, home-wrecking comedy. -- (C) Warner Bros.

Review For The Campaign
Despite the obviousness of its political points, the film has a scattershot, breezy appeal. Bruce Diones-New Yorker What these dog days of political campaigning needs is a good, sharp political satire. Alas, The Campaign is not that movie -- not even close. Peter Rainer-Christian Science Monitor Simply taken as a broad character comedy, "The Campaign" definitely has its moments. Andrew O'Hehir-Salon.com It's way over the top, but then again, so are most modern political campaigns. Lots of funny s--- here. Richard Roeper-Richard Roeper.com [A] very raunchy and sometimes pretty funny comedy - which isn't above going for dumb jokes, but is also smart enough to play to its two stars' strengths. Stephen Whitty-Newark Star-Ledger This movie is single-handedly causing a major rise in our mirth deficit. It's so bad, I'm declaring a laugh emergency. Kyle Smith-New York Post One of the most witless and toothless "political satires" ever released. Stephen Silver-EntertainmentTell Jay Roach's The Campaign can be funny at times, but it's mostly an exercise of patience as two usually funny men scrape the bottom of the barrel for some truly unfunny jokes. Will Ferrell and Zach Galifianakis have both been in much better films. Jeremy Lebens-We Got This Covered A hopelessly broad and undisciplined comedy that features a small handful of amusing ideas but otherwise represents a major missed opportunity for rich Stateside election year satire. Brent Simon-Screen International Funny and entertaining, it's not a heavyweight contender, but who wants a heavyweight contender every time? -Film4 Don't be disappointed if you're expecting a scathing send-up of the political scene, and you don't find it here. (Blu-ray edition) John J. Puccio-Movie Metropolis If it's sophistication you're looking for, forget it. This one's strictly for low laughs, at which it succeeds nicely. John J. Puccio-Movie Metropolis [B]itter, brutal, and -- unfortunately for the hopes and dreams of the American people -- very very pointedly funny... MaryAnn Johanson-Flick Filosopher Works great until it develops a conscience Robert Denerstein-Movie Habit The Campaign is an equal split of smart and stupid. Some people may be off-put by the wild detours into vulgarity, but I relished it. Adam Ross-The Aristocrat In short, it's the sort of comedy which thinks punching babies and dogs in the face is funny. Stephen Carty-Flix Capacitor The Campaign does manage to strike a funny chord but don't be ashamed to find out these election results on home video. Kofi Outlaw-ScreenRant Director Jay Roach lets swing with some comic haymakers - literally so when Cam aims a punch at his rival and ends up socking a baby in the jaw instead - but the gags are so unsubtle that the satire fails to deliver a knockout blow. Jason Best-Movie Talk Will Ferrell's funniest movie in years, this is a silly comedy with a terrible sentimental streak, but the political satire running through it is dead on Rich Cline-Contactmusic.com Using tired, lazy stereotypes that swerve any relevance to the times, it ironically treats both Americans and its audience with the same contempt as the politicians it lampoons. Andrew Simpson-Fan The Fire With subtlety hardly its strong point (the humour is broad-beamed, brash and at times bordering on farce) it's raucous entertainment. Pauline McLeod-Daily Express Witlessness. Philip French-Observer [UK] Perhaps one in ten of the jokes hits the mark; the rest are damp, childish squibs Kate Muir-Times [UK] There are some laughs, it doesn't overstay its welcome and neither side in the present fight for the presidency is likely to be offended. Derek Malcolm-This is London Don't look for wry satire - the gags are big and brash - but with the duelling stars on top form, The Campaign scores high in the approval ratings. Stella Papamichael-Radio Times Emblematic of a US comedy scene that's turning into something of a fraternity. Charlie Lyne-Ultra Culture
