In a way WAG THE DOG is a conclusion to some of the better BILLY WILDER satires as PICNIC; ONE TWO THREE or AVANTI AVANTI. Combining observations about human conventions with political satire.

I don't like Hoffman and he is the weak link in this movie. DiNero, who is even more a pompous ass nowadays than the Stanley character, he is great. Hoffman, I didn't believe for a minute and thought he couldn't handle the comedy at all. Note that the comedy was fairly stupid except when they were talking about things that later "came true". It's hysterical that people comment that "Stanley" is Stanley Kubrick and his last scene = Kubrick having a heart attack after filming Eyes Wide Shut, and I think maybe they get the "fake Moon Landing" and The Shining in there, too. LOL, LOL, LOL

Dustin Hoffman rules this movie. Absolutely kills it. I m sorry if you didn‘t get it

[@watermelonlalala]

@@franksound6922 Hoffman pretty much ruins any movie he is in. Luckily, he doesn't have the biggest part in this movie. And he gets killed at the end. Nice.
