(PG-13, 120 min.)the absurdity of the balloting debacle ofthe 2004 presidential election, as wellas the proximity of the <strong>2008</strong> vote. Thatmay make Swing Vote timely, but thatdoesn’t make the film good. Swing Vote’spremise takes absurdity to a whole newdimension, while the film’s humor is cynicaland its plot development stagnant– until, of course, a third-act redemptioncomes along to salvage the ideals ofdemocracy (although the overall cynicismmakes even this tonal turnabout seemartificial). <strong>The</strong> story requires a serioussuspension of disbelief: No matter howridiculous things get with electronic votingmachinemishaps, hanging chads, andcourt interventions, Swing Vote’s scenarioposits an election process that ignoresthe constitutional safeguards that arealready in place in the eventuality of atie vote. Costner plays Bud Johnson, anaffable drunk who is kept afloat mostly bythe attentive ministrations of his youngbut precocious daughter Molly (Carroll).When Bud passes out drunk and dotingMolly attempts to cast his vote in hisplace, an electronic voting-machine glitchrecords only that Bud cast his ballot, butnot for whom he voted. A national deadheat prompts both candidates (Grammeras the Republican and Hopper as theDemocrat and Tucci and Lane, respectively,as each candidate’s chief campaignoperative) to travel to Bud’s double-widetrailer in Texico, N.M., to bring their campaignsto the only voter who now matters.73MAMMA MIA!(PG–13) Fri. & Sat. 10:00 12:15 2:30 4:55 7:20 9:45 11:59Sun. - Thu. 10:00 12:15 2:30 4:55 7:20 9:45THE DARK KNIGHT(PG–13) Fri. & Sat. 10:00 12:40 12:55 3:50 4:057:00 7:15 10:00 10:10 11:30Sun. - Thu. 10:00 12:40 12:55 3:50 4:05 7:00 7:15 10:00 10:10JOURNEY TO THE CENTER OF THE EARTH 3D (PG)Fri. & Sat. 10:00 12:15 2:35 4:45 7:00 9:15 11:45Sun. - Thu. 10:00 12:15 2:35 4:45 7:00 9:15HELLBOY II: THE GOLDEN ARMY (PG–13)Fri. - Thu. 12:00 4:30 9:00THE X-FILES: I WANT TO BELIEVE (PG–13) Fri. & Sat.10:00 12:10 2:30 4:55 7:20 9:45 11:59Sun. - Thu. 10:00 12:10 2:30 4:55 7:20 9:45STEP BROTHERS (R) Fri. & Sat. 10:00 12:15 2:30 4:45 7:10 9:25 11:45Sun. - Thu. 10:00 12:15 2:30 4:45 7:10 9:25HANCOCK (PG–13) Fri. - Thu. 10:00 2:30 7:00THE MUMMY: TOMB OF THE DRAGON EMPEROR (PG–13)Fri. & Sat. 10:00 10:30 12:10 12:40 2:30 3:00 4:55 5:25 7:20 7:45 9:45 10:00 11:59Sun. - Thu. 10:00 10:30 12:10 12:40 2:30 3:00 4:55 5:25 7:20 7:45 9:45 10:00SWING VOTE (PG–13)Fri. & Sat. 10:30 1:20 4:10 7:00 9:35 11:59Sun. - Thu. 10:30 1:20 4:10 7:00 9:35a u s t i n c h r o n i c l e . c o m AUGUST 1, <strong>2008</strong> T H E A U S T I N C H R O N I C L E 73
