WHISKEY TANGO FOXTROT<\/strong>
\nParamount Pictures<\/strong>
\nReviewed by: Harvey Karten for Shockya, d-based on Rotten Tomatoes<\/strong>
\nGrade: C+<\/strong>
\nDirector:\u00a0 Glenn Ficarra, John Requa<\/strong>
\nWritten by: Robert Carlock from Kim Barker\u2019s book, \u201cThe Taliban Shuffle\u201d<\/strong>
\nCast: Tina Fey, Margot Robbie, Billy Bob Thornton, Martin Freeman, Christopher Abbot, Martin Freeman, Nicholas Braun, Sterling K. Brown, Josh Charles, Alfred Molina<\/strong>
\nScreened at: AMC 34th St., NYC, 3\/1\/16<\/strong>
\nOpens: March 4, 2016<\/strong><\/p>\n

We\u2019ve all had the experience of being fish out of water, being uncomfortable in a place that\u2019s alien to our culture or upbringing.\u00a0 Think of a four-times-a-week patron of burgers and fries at Mickey D\u2019s suddenly asked by his employer to entertain a client at a French restaurant in New York where the waiters look down their noses since the poor employee knows no French and wonders what to do when the sommelier pours him a thimble of wine and waits for a response.\u00a0 Or how about a guy who writes for the sports section of the New York Times and is asked to be imitate the most intelligent of writers and to review films instead of football.\u00a0 It gets worse.\u00a0 Think of a woman who works in a claustrophobic cubicle for the Chicago Tribune trying to work up enthusiasm for the dangers of high fructose corn syrup who is suddenly offered the chance to go to Afghanistan near the middle of war and to be on special guard only partly for the whims of the Taliban but mostly for the macho journalists and Marines who outnumber her about fifty to one.\u00a0 But having been told that the glass ceiling on women may be coming down, she does not want to cower and go back to her office space, so off she goes to downtown Kabul, leaving her boyfriend (Josh Charles), thinking that she will be on assignment for just three months and back to the drudgery of Chicago.<\/p>\n

This actually took place.\u00a0 One Kim Barker, who wrote a 400-page book in 2011 called \u201cThe Taliban Shuffle: Strange Days in Afghanistan and Pakistan,\u201d stayed for years longer than she expected to.\u00a0 The movie version, directed by Glenn Ficarra and John Requa, heretofore known for writing the script for \u201cI Love You Philip Morris\u201d (a cop turns con man) and \u201cBad Santa\u201d (con man and partner pose as Santa to rob a department store), make a few changes to avoid the appearance of a simple biopic.\u00a0 Kim Barker becomes Kim Baker (Tina Fey) and the Chicago Tribune becomes a New York TV network.<\/p>\n

From the time she takes off for Kabul until she leaves at the end of some three years, she faces battles scenes (which she expects) and romance (she\u2019s told that she may be a 4 back home but in a man\u2019s world she\u2019s a 10, and when she returns to New York she is once a 4).\u00a0 A rough flight, plane bouncing around like Xavier Grobet\u2019s shaky hand-held camera, leads her to a party that makes Animal House look like the Red Carpet at the Academy Awards.\u00a0 Her fellow journalists, certainly not weary as they might have been with a nine to five job in the States, party like there\u2019s no tomorrow, and you can\u2019t blame them.\u00a0 She is warned by Col. Hollanek (Billy Bob Thornton) to forget about sex, though the one other woman in the press corps, Tanya Vanderpoel (Margot Robbie), asks whether Kim\u2019s security people, especially hunky Kiwi Nic (Stephen Peacocke), are available for a cuddle or two.<\/p>\n

Wondering whether there is a shower in the dingy digs and realizing that even peeing will not be as easy as it is in New York despite the big city\u2019s lack of public johns, Kim, who at first thinks she doesn\u2019t have what it takes to last for the three-months\u2019 assignment, winds up spending three years\u2014and all because on a Skype call to her NY boyfriends she discovers that he has another friend with benefits back home.<\/p>\n

Col. Hollanke\u2019s order notwithstanding, she winds up bedding Scottish photographer Iain (Martin Freeman) despite having warned him that his quaint accent will not get him far, but what\u2019s a Hollywood movie without heat?\u00a0 Wondering how she ever got into the Afghan scene, she learns a lot from her translator (Christopher Abbot), whose job lands him $125 a day; she is almost killed when she approaches an all-male meeting though outfitted with a colorful burka; she has more than a single interview with the country\u2019s hirsute attorney-general (Alfred Molina), who conveniently shows her the bed behind the curtain in his office and for a price will let her know where her Scottish pal is being holed up by kidnappers.<\/p>\n

Tina Fey is a remarkable comedian known particularly for her authentic impression of Sarah Palin and for her sketches on Saturday Night Live.\u00a0 Here she seems a fish out of water for considerably more time than the first week or so, not especially suited for the more serious role she plays.\u00a0 However we hear that the Kim Barker, who wrote the book on which the movie is based, considers Ms. Fey a spot-on alter ego.\u00a0 If you\u2019re hoping for something surreal like the never-predictable \u201cDr. Strangelove,\u201d you won\u2019t find it here.\u00a0 The movie should have been darker, more satiric, less superficial and not jumping from one scene to the next without a chance for exploration.\u00a0 The laughs are few, the situations never beginning to match up to those found in \u201cMash,\u201d where the staff of a Korean War hospital use humor and hijinks to survive the insanity of war.\u00a0 At best, the New Mexico Department of Tourism could use some of the exquisite shots of its stark desert and rocky cliffs to attract visitors.\u00a0 The title is euphemistic for WTF.<\/p>\n

Rated R.\u00a0 111 minutes.\u00a0 \u00a9 Harvey Karten, Member, New York Film Critics Online<\/strong><\/p>\n
