funsterdad As write this, I'm having a difficult time thinking how a look at our current POTUS' final year might turn out. President Barak Obama offered our country HOPE. This film focuses less on Obama, but instead portrays an inside look at how Obama's team functioned as a diplomatic unit. A fascinating and sobering look!
kosmasp And still a feeling that some of the great things that were done might fall apart. And don't get it twisted, this is not here to applaud everything President Obama did. (Un)fortunately it also does not shine too much light on what went wrong during his last couple of months. Then again, can you blame him for the failures of the DNC? This is not what the movie is about. It is there to observe and get a bit of the daily work that was done.But also the humans behind it all. Just like everyone else they have their character traits, which can be seen as good or bad. It also might be seen as a warning shot of what is to come. All the deals and everything that has been done. Not being involved in scandals, not ridiculing others or having petty "wars" with the press. There was dignity ... and it got lost. This may not be great, but while watching it and seeing the struggles the current administration goes through ... well maybe it's better not to watch, as in too soon ... still too soon
benm-41751 Camera crews followed Obama and some of his closest staff as they spent his final year of presidency trying to leave behind a positive legacy through many diplomatic undertakings. The documentary is definitely sympathetic to that he, John Kerry, and the others interviewed were in during this last year. One could possibly call it a biased portrayal, but then again it's hard not to like a president who is working tirelessly to make better connections with the nations of the world (whether or not you think he was successful). The documentary provides a rare intimate perspective into the presidency.
agentxjp A highly entertaining look into the final year of a well respected president who managed to turn around a recession. Compared to the current train wreck in the white house it is interesting to see such a massive contrast in even basic values such as professionalism, compassion, and humility.
