I can't remember being more puzzled by any film. Just what is the plot, purpose or message, if any? "Election" appears to be nothing more than a string of porno clips pasted together, with the actual 'election' merely a speed bump in the bed-hopping. What we see is the beginning of a semi-interesting theme, with three very eclectic individuals running for the office of student council president. But instead of developing that plot, which would be logical given the title, moviegoers are instead treated to a diorama of every sexual encounter the candidates have ever had.
I still have no idea what the overall message was. Matthew Broderick can't act? Sleeping with your campaign manager is a good way to lose an election? Having a lesbian sister means you'll never be dateless on Friday night?
Seriously, this movie is so poorly put together, I was visibly embarrassed to be in the theatre. There are only 30 watchable seconds in the flick, when Tammy and Lisa liplock. Unfortunately, that's midway through the film, so you have to go through hell before getting to heaven.
What disappoints me most is the fact Reese Witherspoon had anything to do with it. She was the only reason I went anywhere near the theatre for this one, and I feel betrayed. Reese, honey, how could you do this to me?
