    Witty, offbeat and engaging

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Jun 2, 2000

    Election was sadly overlooked during the awards phase of early 2000 by both the Oscars and the Golden Globes. What is particularly fascinating about Election is it's subtle commentary on America's electoral process and the candidates who we select w...ithout due reflection.What I thought would be another moronic teen mess like American Pie instead provided a pleasurable movie-going experience.

    Disgustingly faultless (well, almost!)

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  May 29, 2000

    A surprisingly underrated and remarkably original film that thoroughly deserves all the critical praise it has received. While it does take a while for the story to get going, once it does you will not want to leave your seat until the very end of t...he film. That is largely due to a wonderful(Oscar-nominated
    ) script, excellent direction and superb performances. Matthew Broderick shows he has come a long way since his Ferris Bueller days, whilst Reese Witherspoon puts her performance in Cruel Intentions to shame. There were also brilliant contributions from Chris Klein and Jessica Campbell. And the music, whilst not really memorable, is certainly well chosen. Perhaps the film did get a little cheesy at times, and as I've already mentioned it started rather slowly. Yet these are minor faults in a film which has shown, like American Beauty did after it, that you do not need big-budget special effects to find a winning formula.

    REESE REESE REESE

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  May 7, 2000

    if you havent seen this film i suggest you stop wasting time in go see , rent , buy the film that deserved at least an oscar nom for wonderful reese witherspoon. Reese carries every scene like shes her character and walks about the screen like the r...ole is second nature. This girl can act.... I will watch all of her movies from now on. Dont believe she's that good, watch it ..you'll see. Read more Less

    This is a must-see! Great movie!

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Feb 28, 2000

    This rates 4.5 stars with me, but that wasn't one of my options. Reese Witherspoon is perfect as the over-achieving student, and Matthew Broderick is so pitiful in his attempts to thwart her election campaign for class president. Thoroughly entertai...ning and hilarious from start to finish. Highly recommended. Read more Less

    Weird, but funny!!

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Feb 10, 2000

    This movie is really !@#$ed up, but I liked it. From that scene where M.B.'s charater went down stairs and uncovered his secret porno collection, I knew this movie was messed up.

    Odd...

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Jan 4, 2000

    This movie was just odd....I cannot necessarily explain it, but it was over dramatic or something.... some parts of it made me want to yell at Matthew Brodrick lol

    Quirky, but funny

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Nov 16, 1999

    I liked this movie, but something always seemed to ring false. Sometimes things were taken a bit to the extreme, but I was glued to the TV the whole time. It felt like voyeurism.
