A CONSERVATIVE folk singing-political candidate?
HILARIOUS is one of the many words I can think of that describe this gem of a movie. It is mockumentary in nature, and it follows the trail of our hero, Bob Roberts, as he moves through his senatorial campaign.
Bob is a talented folk singer with a hard right edge. You would expect to hear liberal lyrics with the folksy music he produces, but instead he touts no-nonsense harsh conservative views. The satire is intense, and hilarious.
Honestly, I'm not sure whether the movie would appeal to conservatives or not. I see the humor in it because I tend to side with Tim Robbins' real-life political views. However, good humor crosses political parties. Perhaps those whose views slant more to the right might find the references to tree-hugging liberals funny. Since I don't know for sure, I would recommend the movie to those who lean more to the left. Others, view with caution.Lire l'avis complet...
Great movie on DVD, but would be netter in its original filmed format
I am disappointed that a, "Special Edition" of a movie on DVD does not present this 1992 movie is only presented in a Pan & Scan format. I would prefer the option to watch this movie in its original aspect rationLire l'avis complet...

Time to watch Bob Roberts Again.
Imagine Donald Trump with a brain, and the ability to write and sing catchy folk-songs. A brilliant analysis of our times, but produced in 1992.

A Hidden Gem
Interesting political story that is reminiscent of "the Candidate" starring Robert Redford, but with a lot more humor.

Brilliant political satire
One of the finest political movies ever made. If you didn't know Tim Robbins, you might believe this was the documentary it pretends to be. Released in 1992, it could have been made now. It satires the whole political process, but especially the depths many will go to to win an election. A must for any Robbins fan or political wonk.Lire l'avis complet...
