★ 7/10
"Man of the Year" starring Robin Williams is a comedy film about a talk show host who decides to run for president, highlighting how the political spectrum isn't always strictly left or right. Williams shines in his role, blending comedy with a touch of political savvy that showcases his acting prowess throughout the movie. He skillfully portrays the complexities of a politician, all while adding his trademark humor to the mix. The film is paced well, smoothly navigating through the engaging storyline that touches on election fraud and potential tampering. "Man of the Year" delivers a strong message about the need to break free from the constraints of traditional political divides and think outside the box. With its clever plot and Williams' stellar performance, this movie is a must-watch that I highly recommend to everyone.
