Maybe we don't like looking at ourselves. I enjoyed the movie because it made me feel uncomfortable. This film was made in 2006 before national... itics became as weird as it is today. No mention was made of foreign wars, or dangerous debt, but the idea of a stolen election seems eminently real and what people might do to protect that secret at least possible. The film does morph from light-hearted to serious/dangerous for the characters so it does seem like three mini-stories tied together. Perhaps that explains its lukewarm popularity. Full Review

Man of the Year remains an interesting proposition throughout, and a tale well told.Full Review

San Francisco Chronicle
For 60 minutes, the movie appears to have found the right tone and approach, then everything goes wrong. It's rare to see a production that starts so strongly finish so weakly.Full Review

A movie that can be smart-funny and astutely topical. But if what you're expecting is a start-to-finish laugh fest, beware: This picture takes some detours and never really figures out what kind of movie it wants to be.Full Review

One walks out of Man of the Year aching for the squandered opportunities.Full Review

Boston Globe
Like a politician who waters down his message to gain favor with the masses rather than truly serving his constituency, Man of the Year seems determined to play it safe on all counts.Full Review
