In Long Shot, Charlotte Field (Charlize Theron) is a glamorous US presidential hopeful when she crosses paths with a knockabout bloke she knew in childhood who is now an unemployed weed smoking journalist, Fred Flarsky (Seth Rogan).

The plot of this film is so utterly stupid that it’s actually quite remarkable that I enjoyed it. It’s the lolz that get it over the line - there are many. This film is not what I would call good but is what I would call light & enjoyable so if that’s what you need, then go for it.

Here’s a three star review from the Fairfax press if you want to read more. It’s a 2.5-3 star film for me.

Long Shot is in cinemas now and is rated M. Trailer here.
