Welcome to Mooseport

Hmm, well, it wasn't as funny as I thought it would be...

Basically, Ray Romano plays a person who's in a small town, running for mayor unopposed. However, when the president (Gene Hackman) pops into town and realises it would be a great publicity stunt to run for mayor, he does.

But it's not that simple. They are both interested in the same girl (Maura Tierney)... well... she was Ray's girlfriend in the movie... but she was irritated that he has never popped the question. So she takes some matters into her own hands... after speaking with the president's secretary that is... played by Marcia Gay Harden. Well, it was good to see Fred Savage in a movie... but he was so pathetic... it was funny ;p

So basically... a story of love and a story of wacky politics. Silly, but mildly entertaining.
