McCain wins nomination for presidency on 2008 elections but finds himself behind Barrack Obama. His campaign team pulls out one female Alaskan governor to be McCain's running-mate with all these hopes that she will be a great help to win presidential seat.

First thing, I think the acting, which everyone thought to be THAT GOOD, is just plain for me. Moore, Harris and everyone seemed not to gave enough effort for this one. However, this is "plain and passable" acting. On the technical sides, I felt like the film did not really arrived on something that is new, I mean, I expected some raising of bars with this. Some shots and angles just didn't work. Lastly, in the beginning of the film, I'm confused whether the film centered on Palin or McCain and his team? I couldn't feel some emotion until ***SPOILER ALERT!*** Palin starts mentioning about her family. That point, I was like "Okay. This is it. It's about her." Then, it all fell short. The material was good but I didn't feel whatever the film wanted me to feel. Lost in direction, I guess.
