Summary: Congratulations Barack Obama!!!
Comment: Last night, I found out that Barack Obama is going to be our 44th President and the first African-American President! In honor of him winning, I decided to watch this movie! Chris Rock plays Mays Gilliam and is picked to run for Presidency against Vice President Brian Lewis. It starts off as a joke, But Mays takes it seriously, and soon, the whole United States does. Lewis becomes nervous because Gilliam is gaining more followers. Mays picks his brother, Mitch to be his Vice President. Will Mays become the President of the United States? If you love comedy and politics, you'll love HEAD OF STATE!!!
p.s. This is an important day in America because who would have thought that we would ever have an African-American President. GO OBAMA!!!

Summary: Pretty good movie for a first time director
Comment: Head Of State is a pretty funny movie from the not always funny Chris Rock. With history possibly getting ready to be made in Novemeber this film is a true testament of what goes on in poltics. With his directoral debut, Rock made an enjoyable fim.The ad campagins that Rock does towards his opponent had me in tears. Then when Berine Mac comes into the movie he steals it with every scene he's in. If you want a funny film then check this one out.

Summary: Worth watching in this 2008 election season
Comment: A mostly silly and shallow parable, the humor seemingly aimed at a lowest-common-denominator sort of viewing audience. And yet, in this season when there actually IS an African-American running for president, it is worth watching, for the occasionally funny gag, and for the sometimes startling, premonitory parallels with the reality we witness every day....
Customer Rating:
Summary: Actually really good
Comment: I reviewed a bunch of movies for a paper about how Hollywood portrays black presidents in movies (my conclusion is only a black person can be president if there is an impending disaster, a science fiction based story, a funny person or takes place in the far future).
This was one of the 7 I watched (my favorite is The Man with James Earl Jones). I thought it was going to be a ridiculous joke but it was actually really good. Chris Rock is funny and smart in this.
