Jon Stewarts (The Daily Show) nya film med Steve Carrell sågas av filmkritiker

In Irresistible, Jon Stewart’s Shtick Is Out of Date skriver vänstermagasinet Slate och andra filmkritiker verkar hålla med. Rotten Tomatoes som sammanställer kritikernas betyg ger just nu filmen låga 39 %, dvs rutten.

Kommer biopubliken gilla filmen mer? Irresistible får biopremiär på fredag den 26 juni i USA. Det är oklart om den når svenska biografer efter ett så ljummet mottagande.

Written and directed by Jon Stewart, Irresistible is a comedy about what happens when a small Wisconsin town becomes the main attraction of our political circus. After the Democrat’s top strategist Gary (Steve Carell) sees a video of a retired Marine Colonel (Chris Cooper) standing up for the rights of his town’s undocumented workers, Gary believes he has found the key to winning back the Heartland. However, when the Republicans counter him by sending in his brilliant nemesis Faith (Rose Byrne), what started out as a local race quickly becomes an out-of-control and hilarious fight for the soul of America.
