No, funnyman Adam Sandler is more unfunnier than funny man Will Ferrell.

Wow I don’t even think this movie looks good but this boycott idea is so pathetically stupid I almost have to go to show my lack of support for the boycott. Just because a guy punches a baby in a movie doesn’t mean the movie is pro-punching babies. It’s pretty obvious in just the trailers that the character is a jerk, and this baby punch is the big opportunity to finally unseat him. Then lets not even get into the silliness of boycotting all the malls that have theaters, that’s just being retarded... almost as retarded as somebody punching a baby.

it was one of the most horrifying scenes that I have ever seen

Many who were familiar with the movie tried to make that argument but she would not be swayed.

At the risk of proving myself a despicable human being, by the end of the movie I felt sympathy for the sociopath as he took a horrific beating from his former mates.

I enjoyed it. Shows an exaggerated, but somewhat realistic idea of campaigns and how ugly it can get. Definitely recommend it for DVD when it comes out.

I must have missed that part. It was crude, yes, but it was rated R. It had sleezy scenes, but ‘rape’? Are you sure you were watching The Campaign?

The hit was an accident! He was aiming for his rival. No one thought hitting a baby was funny. They thought ‘OMG. Thats awful He just did an awful thing.

This was about how far they will go for votes/points/polls. Both of them were running to kiss the baby for a photo op and They started shoving each other to be first. Finally, Will went to slug the other guy, but ended up hitting the baby by accident.

My wife and I just returned from the movie. I thought it was great. My only problem with the language. I understand some language is warranted sometimes but I thought it was a bit over the top. The movie itself was really good and what a great ending.

Glad the two of you enjoyed your night out at the movies. I definitely laughed, but the language was a bit much, especially during the accidental answering machine message. I kept thinking about the democrats commercials these days and how over the top they are...like the one with West and hitting the woman or the elderly woman in a wheel chair. It shows they are truly running a Will F campaign.

Yeah...he is over rated. All his movies are the same. Watch one and you can tell your friends you have seen them all.

I saw the movie. It is hilarious. It looks like it is a hit and making a lot of money. Luckily these idiots are being ignored.
