Summary: The Historic movie
Review: My Fellow Americans is a funny movie about 2 presidents who hate each other. They both almost get killed and then they are dumped of a plane in the middle of nowhere. Together they finally get back home and become friends. If you think Jack Lemon is a good movie star then you would love this movie.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Rockford Files Meets Grumpy Old Men
Review: OK, this isn't Shakespeare, but sometimes you're just not in the mood for Shakespeare. If you have loved Jack Lemmon & James Garner as much as I have for so many years, they won't disappoint you. Yes, the humor is a little crude (I don't know how they got them to say some of those things!), but it is still an overall very enjoyable movie.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: Comic SLEEPER with Muskrat Love to boot!
Review: The same Reviewers who are kind to MY LIFE have missed the boat on this frenetic comic messterpiece. MY FELLOW AMERICANS is a funny ...sometimes archly funny...flick that blows pretense out of media-driven blowhard politics.James Garner--reviving his MAVERICK-cool persona--is former Democratic Prez,Matt Douglas. Jack Lemmon is arch rival,former Republican Prez,Russell Kramer.A banana bunch of classy supporting actors(including Lauren Bacall and Conehead Dan Aykroyd)keep the pot/plot bubbling with inane set pieces;wicked-wit dialogue;and a bogus story comprising multiple assassination attempts and enough scandal/nefarious conspiracy to glut-up Michael Moore.

That the plot is "pointless" is beside the point. The august majesty of THE PRESIDENCY is the Wallmart target taken for a satirical ride here,and it works. High point of MY FELLOW AMERICANS is that there is no high point in what amounts to sloppy collection of hysterical skits. Jack Heard(a wacky, decisively second string Vice-Prez)makes the MFA Sound Track a collector's item with his stirring(as Funeral valediction/hymn) rendition of soft-schlock rockers,AMERICA's goofy ballade: MUSKRAT LOVE. What more can discerning viewers want? Blue,Red or Indie Green;this load of Americana is yuk-filled shot-in-the-dark at POLs and their Homies everywhere.(50 stars minus 46)

Summary: "Our dreams are our children."
Review: The story covers several years and three presidencies. First Lemmon, then Garner and now Aykroid. Vice President Ted Matthews (John Heard) is a dunce. Turns out rumors of a scandal are surfacing and the now president is having thoughts of pining the scandal on Lemmon who was president at the time. Joe Hollis (Wilford Brimley) the head of the opposition party wants to pin it on the present administration. Col. Paul Tanner will protect the secret at any cost. There are many more players, too numerous to mention. Seems that someone has determined that Lemmon and Garner are best dispatched. Will this happen? Can they clear their names? And not just who is behind the plot, but what is the plot? Watch out for Blinky.

This movie has a sound mystery base to get us through the twists and turns with lots of "who's behind it" moments. However the interaction between Garner and Lemmon is so much fun that sometimes we forget the plot.

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: THIS IS A VERY GOOD MOVIE
Review: THIS IS A VERY GOOD MOVIE!!!!!!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Refreshing
Review: This is an excellent light comedy that is refreshing because it is a departure form what is considered the "stupid" modern comedy. It is not at all a comedy that is considered asinine. I really like the stereotypes of the womanizing Democrat and the stingy Republican. I would recommend this film for anyone, no matter what the age.

Rating: 5 stars
