This is a pretty fluffy political documentary primarily due to the fact that even though it is covering 2 campaigns for the presidency, there isn't much about politics or policy. The bigger problem with the film, given that it is essentially Romney family home movies, is that after it is over, you really don't know anymore about Mitt then you did before. He has a really large, tightly knit family, a presidential campaign is grueling, and that's pretty much it. The Romney's are quite obviously well aware that they are on camera, so there are no 'unguarded' moments. It's a pleasant enough way to kill 1.5 hours but not as entertaining or enlightening as rereading 'Fear and Loathing on the Campaign Trail'.

I hope others will watch to see the man and acquaint yourself with the one who should be in the White House today. I hope you run again, Gov. Romney, we need you. You are a fine, brilliant man who works hard and really wants to give something back to America, the country you love so deeply. God bless you. I thought your movie was very honest and candid and show what you and your family had to deal with every day of your 2008 and your 2012 campaign runs.You were the right man at the right time....you were dealing with a candidate who was protected by the mainstream media and other various groups and organizations. Your video touched my heart even more as half of the country still mourns your loss and Obama's approval rating lower than any past President we've ever had. We need you. America needs you. Please run, please run again.

This film has absolutely no crossover appeal. The whole point of it isn't to recap the last 8 years of Mitt Romney's life. It's to show the human side of him and the toll that it took on his family. It's pretty affective too at some points, like when we see how good of a wife that Ann Romney is behind the scenes, telling her husband to have conviction from his heart.There's a few really intimate moments that you should watch out for which tug at the heart strings, but they never really quite tug in a really strong way. You won't cry, you want laugh, but you will smile. This is strictly a documentary for politicos. One problem a cinephile might have is the really bad quality of half the shots. Some of them are extremely grainy like you're watching a youtube video. The score sucks, too. And the overall atmosphere that the film creates makes you want to fall asleep. In conclusion, if you're not obsessed with politics, stay away. It's boring.

Despite being completely neutral in its treatment of Mitt Romney, the film exposes the humble and brilliant nature of a man whom was unfairly characterized and misunderstood by the media during his run for president. The film follows Mitt Romney from his Decision to run for the republican nominee in 2008 through his campaign against Obama in 2012, culminating in his election night defeat. The film is surprisingly honest and allowed unparalleled access into a family which seems, in a lot of ways, just like the rest of us. It follows the ups and downs of his campaign with candid insights which inadvertently convey many honest moments and insecurities the candidate struggled with.The final moments of the film focus on the slow disintegration of his hopes for becoming president and the last moments of the campaign. How he responds to such a disappointing result, surrounded by his family, after months of exhaustive campaigning truly exemplifies the perseverance and integrity of Mitt Romney. It is a rare look into a man whom could have made a great president.
