The Canidate

Plot:

Californian lawyer Bill McKay fights for the little man. His charisma and integrity get him noticed by the Democratic Party machine and he is persuaded to run for the Senate against an apparently unassailable incumbent. It's agreed he can handle it his own way, on his own terms. But once he's in the race and his prospects begin to improve, the deal starts to change.

Review:

Starring Robert Redford and the dude that played the father in Everybody Loves Raymond. Pretty good flick about a underdog running for US senator. It gets kinda unreal at the end but its a pretty good movie if you interested in politics. Redford is the man in this as always and the film seems to fly by.

Rating: 3.5/5
