A bland comedy that squanders a talented cast.

Means to satirize the TV-fueled carnivalesque nature of American electoral politics but only demonstrates the TV-fueled debasement of American commercial comedy. Feb 24, 2004

[Mooseport is] like the pound cake of movies -- nice and safe and sweet, but not really worth recommending. Feb 23, 2004

This lackluster production fails to generate much in the way of tension and less in the way of merriment. Jan 9, 2007 | Rating: 1.5/4

The movie never takes its material far enough, it's never daring, it's never edgy, it's never satiric. It's just, well, it's just TV. Jun 10, 2004 | Rating: 5/10 | Full Review…

No work of art but a pleasant silly comedy which is unfortunately damaged by a very dull Ray Romano in one of the leads. Sadly this seems to be the film Hackman chose to close out his career.
Super Reviewer
This movie has a great and seemingly original premise, but I think that was all Gene Hackman found out about it before signing on... Ray Romano is his usual boring self, but Hackman is complemented by unsung TV vets Maura Tierney and a surprisingly good Fred Savage, as well as the usual Marcia Gay Harden. The script was okay, the plot was fine, but the filming was so formulaic that this one is really a chore to sit all the way through.
It is a pretty good movie. Ray Romano is great, as usual. The concept was neat. A good comedy.
There are no approved quotes yet for this movie.
