   Long Shot can't escape its romcom structure, but I do like all the actors involved, and Canadian National Treasure Seth Rogan and World Treasure Charleze Theron have a lot of chemistry. Plus, if you take away the drug stuff and the lucky romance, I've kind of BEEN Rogan's character, the intensely-integrious speech writer/coms officer who blows up at his boss for betraying their values and moreover, the OFFICE'S values. This movie wears its politics on its sleeve and I appreciate that. It also has a pretty fun recurring gag about Canadian Premier Justin Trudeau (under a different name, but still), and some pretty adult, serious relationship moments. And it somehow manages to present a real political story while also taking place in a slightly ridiculous world (but absurdly, it's not that far off reality). At over two hours, it sometimes lags, but far less than I expected. Like most of Rogan's comedy, it has a lot of heart, and I'm always forgiving of the stuff I don't think works very well when there's a lot of heart. 4 years 11 months ago

   For me Seth Rogen is a pioneer of new movie genre 'romantical political satire' (though he's a producer not director).
   This movie has intelligent political and social background so you don't need to laugh out loud all the time but there are many good jokes and you have the feeling that you have seen something good.
   Multiple references to 90's like Beverly Hills 90210 or Roxette.
   Both Charlize and Seth are an excellent couple together. 4 years 11 months ago
