Critic Reviews of "Election"
Chicago ReaderAugust 24, 2010The treatment of this touchy material is impressive, neither gratuitous nor mincing, but this 1999 satirical comedy doesn't really go anywhere.
Chicago ReaderAugust 24, 2010An instant classic, Alexander Payne's 1999 high school comedy seems even more scathing now that we're losing control of our own election machinery.
Associated PressAugust 24, 2010Election at first has the feel of a simple work. But don't let that fool you; it's a complex, deep tale.
Boston GlobeAugust 25, 2007You've got to laugh at Witherspoon's tightly wound Little Miss Perfect, rising at dawn to do her hair and encase herself in a preppy look before baking cupcakes to pass out at school as vote-getters in her campaign for student council president.
VarietyFebruary 18, 2006A dark, insidiously funny satire on the self-involved ways otherwise rational people can allow narrow personal agendas to lead them astray to the point of self-destruction.
Time OutJanuary 26, 2006This remarkable film may be set in high school, but its satiric take on moral corruption, political chicanery, adultery and seduction is anything but juvenile.
Seanax.comJune 16, 2016Alexander Payne's wicked satire of power and (social) politics set in the overheated incubator of a high school student body election is as sharp and perceptive now as it was in 1999.
Turner Classic Movies OnlineDecember 17, 2011Payne and Taylor are equal opportunity satirists and their sly wit dismantles everything from high school culture to suburban complacency.
EmanuelLevy.ComAugust 17, 2011This clever, biting high-school satire is arguably Alexander Payne's most original and accomplished film (and so far he has made only good pictures).
Common Sense MediaJanuary 02, 2011Dark high school comedy is best for older teens.
TV GuideAugust 24, 2010Surprise! An intelligent, well-written high school story that offers some real ideas to chew on, rather than simply wallowing in nubile flesh.
Movie ViewsFebruary 03, 2009Took the sleaze of the teen comedy and spun it into something that's both hugely entertaining and extremely insightful.
