Briefly on Blu-ray: Game Change



Game Change
Rated: TV-MA
Genre: Tevision, Drama
Street Date: January 8, 2013
Available On: DVD and Blu-ray/DVD/Digital Copy Combo
The Film: A behind-the-scenes drama based on John McCain's 2008 presidential campaign and the impact of his decision to select Sarah Palin as his running mate.
The Extras: Creating a Candidate and Game Change - The Phenomenon Featurettes
Recommendation: HBO’s behind-the-scenes look at John McCain’s 2008 presidential campaign is well made, there’s no question about that. Ed Harris makes a wonderful McCain, Julianne Moore feels authentic as Sarah Palin and Woody Harrelson is perfectly cast as the over-stressed campaign strategist Steve Schmidt. But is it accurate? Schmidt, the real Schmidt, has gone on the record as saying that it is.
