Hello everyone! Hopefully I've allowed enough time for everyone to sit down and watch this with the recent holiday and all.
To be honest, going into this film I was somewhat skeptical if I would enjoy it or not but boy was I wrong. The rants left me laughing out loud and like StJohn
- The swearing is off the charts.

The political satire is great, but one of the more interesting scenes in this movie for me was the confrontation between Malcolm Tucker and General Miller. Tucker is one scary bastard when he's shouting in your face and swearing faster than the speed of light with that vein about to explode right out of his forehead, but he's a physically slim guy. Miller is huge -- he doesn't have Tucker's wit, but he's physically intimidating. Tucker doesn't shy away from the confrontation and probably wouldn't even if it did get physical, but you can tell he's not quite sure how to handle himself. Just for comedy value, though, my favorite bit is when Tucker gets fobbed off on the "master race of highly gifted toddlers" and proceeds to bollock everyone in the vicinity. I seem to be talking about Tucker a lot, but the great writing and Capaldi's acting really make him the center of every scene he's in. I suspect this movie is a lot closer to how modern politics works than anyone in politics would care to admit.
