Fake News - more than just literally and also more than that. Now let's make sure President Trump doesn't see this - his position on Mexicans is bad enough as it is. Although when the movie begins there is a dialog that he may enjoy - for many wrong reasons. Especially because it includes Obama (by name). Current politics aside, if that is possible at a crazy time like that. The movie has been outdone by reality.
And while some things may have seemed outrageous back then, many have been said by "world leaders" (especially one) or seem to have been done. There is no proof there is an agreement between Fox News and the POTUS and they do have actual reporters, even if you can count them on one hand. The way they report may remind you on something you see in this movie. But even without that happening right now, the movie does wear thin and annoying at points where you just know where this is going.
Predictability isn't always something bad and the movie is more than decent, but the running time seems far too stretched. While I didn't have an issue with the depicted violence, I'm pretty sure the tone will feel mixed and convoluted for others. Funny but would have worked better if it was shorter
