Review of American Dreamz (2006) by Tracy B — 18 Oct 2007
I had a lot of hope for American Dreamz. I was thinking that it was going to be a funny yet scathing indictment of American life and the reality TV culture.
Instead it was just a satire showing how dumb the President is and how greedy TV producers and stars are. This movie was way too shallow. They could have taken this concept and threw it in the face of the lazy ass people that would rather reach for their phone and vote for the best singer than walk, or drive, down to the polls and cast their vote for the Leader of the Free World. How can you have a tagline like "Imagine a country where the President never reads the newspaper, where the government goes to war for all the wrong reasons, and more people vote for a pop idol than their next President." and not do anything with it?
American Dreamz was cute and funny in places. Wait for it to be a dollar rental.
