Funniest candidates money can buyproven master of the comedygenre, a brainiac bestknown for making “Meetthe Parents” and the AustinPowers trilogy. The moviestars Will Ferrell as CamBrady, a popular North“The Campaign”Excellent (3.5 stars)Rated R for profanity,sexuality, nudity andcrude humor.Running time: 97minutesDistributor: WarnerBrothersBy Kam WilliamsIf you’ve been looking fora laugh-a-minute comedy asa refreshing alternative to allthe kiddie flicks and bombasticsummer blockbusterscurrently at the megaplexes,your wait is over. Andwhat could be more timelythan a picture about thedirty tricks being employedduring a cutthroat politicalcampaign?“The Campaign” wasdirected by Jay Roach, aCarolina Congressmanwho’s running unopposedfor his fifth term in officeuntil an Anthony Weinerlevelpeccadillo becomespublic knowledge.That boneheaded blunderopens the door for a nerdy,unworthy opponent such asMarty Higgins (Zach Galifianakis)to enter the racebecause he’s being bankrolledby a couple of verywealthy businessmen. Glen(John Lithgow) and WadeMotch (Dan Aykroyd) aresleazy, power-hungry siblingsostensibly patternedafter the billionaire Kochbrothers, notorious backersMarty Higgins as Zach Galifianakis and Will Ferrell asCam Brady in The Campaign.of arch-conservative causes.Bragging about being“candidate creators” morethan “job creators,” theMotches specifically seizeon naïve Marty since he’sso malleable. Unseen behindthe scenes, they orchestratea complete overhaul of Higgins’image with the helpof a no-nonsense campaignmanager (Dylan McDermott).Soon, Brady realizes he’sin the fight of his life, as bothsides resort to increasinglydevioustactics to prevail onElection Day. For instance,we find Marty wearing whathe calls a “Yamaha” on hishead during services at asynagogue, while Cam singsin the gospel choir of a blackBaptist Church and playswith rattlesnakes to curryfavor with the congregationof a sect of serpent-handlingevangelists.But despite his bestefforts, Brady continues tosabotage his own campaignat every turn, whether byaccidentally punching ababy and a puppy, or bybeing caught having sexwith a supporter in a port-ojohn.And as the polls indicatethat the tide is turningdecisively in Marty’s favor,the focus becomes whetherhe’ll be a tool of the Motchbrothers or choose to dowhat’s best for his district.Will Ferrell’s over-the-topapproach to Cam serves asthe perfect counterpoint toZach Galifianakis’ relatively-subduedinterpretationof sweet-natured Marty.The film also features severalinspired support performances,most notably,Dylan McDermott and JasonSudeikis as devious campaignmanagers and KarenMaruyama as an ebonicsaccentedAsian housekeeper.Throw in amusing cameosby a neverending stringof political pundits suchas Bill Maher, Wolf Blitzer,Chris Matthews, Piers Morgan,Joe Scarborough,Lawrence O’Donnell, WillieGeist, Mika Brezinski, EdSchultz and Dennis Miller,and you’ve got all the makingsfor a bona fide electionyear hit.
