Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
This enormously witty satire follows a British diplomatic staff as they fly to Washington to confer with their U.S. counterparts, who are secretly ginning up an invasion of the Middle East.
– J. R. Jones,

fresh:
The brainchild of British director Armando Iannucci, it takes on the politicians at their own dirty game, daring to fictionally embellish the tawdry facts, to out-spin the spin doctors.
– Rick Groen,
Globe and Mail,

– Peter Howell,
Toronto Star,

fresh:
Painfully funny satire of British and American bureaucrats in the days leading up to the Iraq War.
– Kirk Honeycutt,
