Fast-paced political comedy ‘The Campaign’ stars Will Farrell as congressman Cam Brady; a charismatic congressman threatened at the ballot by green newcomer Marty Huggins, an opponent whose agenda is not quite as altruistic as it seems.
As the hustings hilariously hot up and the campaign mud-slinging exposes the dirt on everyone involved, the electioneering turns into a fight where the biggest loser must surely win.
‘The Campaign’ is the latest from director Jay Roach (‘Austin Powers’, ‘Meet the Fockers’).
Contains strong language, once very strong, strong sex and sex references.
