LONG SHOT (2019)

Long ShotWhen Fred Flarsky reunites with his first crush, one of the most influential women in the world, Charlotte Field, he charms her. As she prepares to make a run for the Presidency, Charlotte hires Fred as her speechwriter and sparks fly.

Charlize Theron and Seth Rogan have real chemistry in this romantic comedy — and it is the best that’s come along for a while. There are some very funny moments. Of course, anything with Josh Rogen in it is going to have drugs and bad language, but fortunately, these are not as prominent as his usual stuff. If you aren’t too worried about a plausible story, it’s pretty enjoyable.
