Long Shot


Actors: Seth Rogen, Charlize Theron, O'Shea Jackson Jr., Andy Serkis, June Diane Raphael, Bob Odenkirk, Alexander Skarsgård
Rating: 9 out of 10, After seeing this movie I am more convinced than ever that Charlize Theron can do anything. She is so good as a high powered secretary of state working for an extremely low power president. This movie could be classified as extremely high fantasy to believe that Seth Rogen would stand a smidgen of a chance as a romantic interest for Theron. However it works and that’s a tribute to both actors although most of the heavy lifting is done by Theron. Theron’s character was Rogen’s babysitter back in the day and hadn’t seen him before he literally stumbles into her life as a speech writer. Rogen, to his credit, holds his own and somehow, against considerable odds, their relationship works. There are some really funny moments laced throughout as well as a lot of heart. I really enjoyed this.
MVP: Theron as the Sec State from heaven
