Game Change - 3 1/2 stars out of 5 stars.

Another fine HBO film based on a novel about the last presidential election.Like most films about politics there are different points of view so the only way to truly judge such a film is the way it seems to be as we saw it in the media so we can at least maybe believe the behind the scenes stuff MIGHT have been.In this regard the film succeeds.Julianne Moore     as Sarah Palin is far better than Tina Fey in any SNL scotch,Ed Harris as John McCain is believable and the rest of the actors are fine as we don't know those real people nearly as well as Palin and McCain.All the flubs are there as well as the a portrait of a woman in over her head but  who truly believes what she says. I took 1 and 1/2 stars off because we can never know the truth about the behind the scenes stuff and its a movie that won't be interesting 5 years from now.Politics is very fleeting.Trailer URL follows the pix and a IMDB summary below.Released on HBO in 2012 it runs about 2 hours.

Follows John McCain's 2008 presidential campaign, from his selection of Alaska Governor Sarah Palin as his running mate to their ultimate defeat in the general election
