Bush in the months before he won the closest and most controversial presidential election in history. Eighteen months. Thousands of miles, millions of handshakes.

An all-access pass to the closest and most controversial presidential election in history, the America Undercover documentary JOURNEYS WITH GEORGE takes an unprecedented look at candidate George W. Bush "unplugged." This revealing, often irreverent, account of the future president on the campaign trail. -- © HBO [More]

Pelosi's willingness to open up and look into her own spot in the campaign frenzy makes this meta-documentary important the media and those who consume it.

A depressing confirmation of everything those of us who don’t object to the description "unelected" have suspected all along: George W. Bush is an incurious, uncharismatic, overgrown frat boy with a mean streak a mile wide.

An amusing, breezily apolitical documentary about life on the campaign trail.

The movie is virtually without context -- journalistic or historical. What's worse is that Pelosi knows it.

All in all, an interesting look at the life of the campaign-trail press, especially ones that don't really care for the candidate they're forced to follow.

Shaky close-ups of turkey-on-rolls, stubbly chins, liver spots, red noses and the filmmakers new bobbed do draw easy chuckles but lead nowhere.

A chronicle not only of one man's quest to be president, but of how that man single-handedly turned a plane full of hard-bitten, cynical journalists into what was essentially, by campaign's end, an extended publicity department.

It's a hoot and a half, and a great way for the American people to see what a candidate is like when he's not giving the same 15-cent stump speech.
