Review of Grassroots (2012) by Todd G — 10 Jun 2012
Jason Biggs plays a more serious role attempting to rein in the antics of his bombastic city council candidate, played by Joel Moore.
Great twist on roles for most of the actors in this film, while leaving Moore to do what he does best. Great display of appreciation for the grassroots movement and the fringe candidates that rely on this for support.
The comedy is heartfelt, relying on characterization more than gags or jokes. And the performances of zany volunteers is tempered by the growth of Phil (Biggs) from disaffected writer/campaign manager to passionate supporter of the cause while being the one sane man in the crowd.
