Storyline

During the Republican run of the 2008 Presidential election, candidate John McCain picks a relative unknown, Alaskan governor Sarah Palin, to be his running mate. As the campaign kicks into high gear, her lack of experience, in both political and media savvy, becomes a drain upon McCain and his strategists.

Critics consensus

“Empathetic performances from a starry cast gives Game Change authenticity and heart, although its political insights often warble between feeling too soon and too late.”

Try as the filmmakers might, it just isn't the same. How could it be, really?

Actress Moore makes one actually feel sorry for Sarah Palin at points in this wonderful film.

The dramatic re-creations are somewhat uneven: The convention staging is quite convincing, the campaign trail less so.

…Jay Roach’s Game Change has a far more substantial meaning in 2K25 that didn’t seem quite so potent on release in 2012, but looms large now…adeptly demonstrates that it’s easier than you’d imagine for the wrong people to get into positions of power…
