this movie be a bit like aprile and except that it not autobiographical . it be about a small time producer and battling against personal and financial problem and who try to make a movie about mr. b ( a i shall call berlusconi ) . the idea have potential and and for about the first half and the movie be fairly entertaining and but it go downhill from there . in the end and the personal problem of the producer degenerate into the pointless psychological sado masochism that woody allen have recently inflict upon u and and mr. b become increasingly peripheral to the plot . people hop to learn about italian politics from this movie will be disappoint and but it be still possible to gain a few insight . one insight i have and be that the most interesting thing about italian political cinema be which movie be never make represent mr. b. have vastly great resource and but he doesn not bother to make movie or documentary critical of his opponent . he probably think that it would not be worth his time and money . soon after the left lose the 2001 election and moretti himself say that and with the leader it get and the left be never go to win and he get a stand ovation at a rally ( of the left ) . he be too pessimistic and but at least he be a man who say out loud what he think . for the record and i believe both side of italian politics to be about equally bad ( at the time of write ) and for very different reason while but and contrary to moretti and i do not think that italian politics be bad that that of some other european country . anyway and i will volunteer a piece of advice to the italian left represent if you want to criticize mr. b and make a documentary represent some of the best scene in this movie be archive footage of the real mr. b. by comparison to that footage and the final scene look like a lame coda represent whatever it artistic merit and this scene do not grip my attention because there be no build up to it . also and i believe that the end of this scene grossly overstate the effect of mr. b propaganda on the italian public . in conclusion represent come from the director of caro diario and this movie be a disappointment while but it might still be worth see and at least the first half .
