I couldn't fully comprehend when I came out of the cinema just how bad this movie was. Now, sure, I'm British, but we have Pop Idol too. The idea of spoofing it seemed funny. But this was *anything* but funny. Hugh Grant must have been laughing all the way to the bank, but the rest of the cast didn't seem aware just what they'd got themselves into. And using terrorists? The producers weren't sure whether they were spoofing terrorists, or trying to make a point. They failed on both counts. I guess Dennis Quaid was quite good as the President, but I lost count of the numbers of times the movie tried to bash it into my skull that this was supposed to be George Bush. Enough already, I get it! Luckily I've seen Date Movie, so this wasn't quite the worst movie I've seen this year. Just very nearly.
