Great to see all of these impersonations in one place, but pretty worthless outside of that.

It is an interesting idea to reference all of the SNL presidential impersonators I suppose, but this wasn't funny and they didn't do a good job of trying to push the political message in a clever or subtle way. A missed opportunity I guess.

Jim does a great Reagan impression.

All that was missing was William Howard Taft running around stuck in a bathtub.

It's clobberingly unsubtle, and while it does have its plus points -- Carrey and Carvey as Reagan and Bush respectively -- any comedy is lost in a wave of stilted political rhetoric and pseudo-surrealism that just doesn't work. A definite disappointment, especially after Prop 8: The Musical.

Not very insightful or even funny, but I've always been a fan of... well, impersonations. And as far as that's concerned I found this enjoyable. Didn't know Chevy Chase still existed.

Probably a funnier diversion than FunnyorDie really have right to claim, given their recent history of sub-SNL schlock. Of course, it still hits only the easy targets, and isn't half as smart as it jarringly thinks itself. Yet the lampooning of politically-oriented pop culturalisms is appreciated. Also, Jim Carrey gives his greatest performance since The Cable Guy. No joke.

Sure, I expected the political messages to be idiotic. (Since when are the banks, who are hurting worse than anyone from the crisis, and too easily gave out loans, "corrupt"? Oh, and what about then-Senator Obama backing Fannie/Freddie Mae/Mac against criticism by Republicans? And sure, I knew the incompetent Obama would be portrayed as some Capraesque hero. However, I wasn't prepared for it to be so goddamn unfunny, with such stilted, weak attempts at humor. Crap through and through.
