Reviewed for Shockya by Harvey Karten. Data-based on Rotten Tomatoes.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Grade:\u00a0 C+<\/strong><\/p>\n

Director:\u00a0 Roberto And\u00f2<\/strong><\/p>\n

Screenwriter:\u00a0 Roberto And\u00f2<\/strong><\/p>\n

Cast:\u00a0 Toni Servillo, Valeria Bruni Tedeschi,\u00a0 Anna Bonaiuto, Valerio Mastandrea, Michela Cescon, Eric Nguyen<\/strong><\/p>\n

Screened at:\u00a0 Dolby88, NYC, 10\/28\/14<\/strong><\/p>\n

Opens:\u00a0 November 7, 2014<\/strong><\/p>\n

When Barack Obama gave that rousing speech during the 2004 Democratic convention, the public believed that progressives would finally come to power.\u00a0 When he accepted the nomination for president in 2008, he again got large segments of the American public to its respective feet, making us think that we would be graced with charismatic leaders into the foreseeable future.\u00a0 Now, however\u2014not to disparage his great accomplishment, the Affordable Care Act, which had been a dream of chief executives since F.D.R.\u2014our commander in chief comes across as a tired man, sporting some gray hair, a fellow who even ignominiously lost the first debate in 2012 to Mitt Romney.<\/p>\n

With \u201cViva la libert\u00e0, writer-director Roberto And\u00f2 is concerned about a similar situation occurring in Italy, or by extension over a great part of the Western world.\u00a0 Politicians try to rouse the public, they take office. They are unable to accomplish what they set out to do.\u00a0 This movie about Italian politics, anchored by Toni Servillo\u2019s performance in two roles, examining the character of two men.\u00a0 One is a politician, Enrico Oliveri.\u00a0 He is depressed.\u00a0 The other is his twin brother, Giovanni Ernani (a nom de plume), a philosophy professor and author of many books who has just been released from an insane asylum.\u00a0 He\u2019s depressed, but he\u2019s also apparently bipolar.\u00a0\u00a0 When Enrico, who is a senator and also the leader of his center-left party, delivers an address to party members, he sounds as though he\u2019d rather be anywhere else, particularly when heckled by a woman in the audience who accuses him of ruining the party.<\/p>\n

Enrico does, in fact, fulfill one aim, not a political one.\u00a0 He disappears, old and fed up with politics, heading to Paris to meet up with his ex-girlfriend Danielle (Valeria Bruni Tedeschi), who is now married to Mung (Eric Nguyen), a filmmaker.\u00a0 Enrico\u2019s right-hand man Andrea Bottini (Valerio Mastandrea), gets the bright idea to recruit the insane but brilliant twin brother, Giovanni, to take the place of Enrico, and Giovanni comes through in much the way that our Sarah Palin electrified her audience by her charismatic speech.\u00a0 Never mind that both Sarah and Giovanni know little about politics, the difference being that Giovanni can not only rouse large groups but charm people on a one-to-one basis as he does when visiting the country\u2019s president (Massimo De Francovich), and by meeting the nation\u2019s chancellor with whom he engages in a shoes-off tango.<\/p>\n

If you want political satire with teeth, take a look at The Daily Show as Jon Stewart skewers politicians right and left, particularly the former. Granted that \u201cViva la libert\u00e0\u201d is not stand-up comedy that could outlast its welcome if it ran longer than 22 minutes.\u00a0 But in the 94 minutes of the film\u2019s running time, one has to wonder what is being satirized.\u00a0 Is it the electorate, the citizens who erroneously equate charisma with the ability to deliver programs that can awaken a country with a depressed economy and a failing spirit?\u00a0 Is it the politicians themselves, who with Machivellian motivation bamboozle the people with promises that are too vague to conceptualize?\u00a0 And does the writer-director want to confuse the audience, making us wonder at times whether we are looking at Enrico or whether we\u2019re facing Giovanni?\u00a0 The content of the film is too banal, lacks real entertaining value, and if it does not project its humor, that could be because of the difficulty of exporting laughs across the Atlantic.<\/p>\n

For better parody of corrupt politics\u2014at least for Americans\u2014revisit Ivan Reitman\u2019s Capra-esque \u201cDave,\u201d about an honest man, a lookalike of the president, who is chosen simply as a decoy.\u00a0 He takes on the role of president, and initiates reforms for a people he genuinely loves.<\/p>\n

Unrated.\u00a0 94 minutes.\u00a0 \u00a9 Harvey Karten, Member, New York Film Critics Online<\/strong><\/p>\n
