Spitting Image: Down And Out In The White House is this quirky comedy that dives into a satirical world where a bunch of celebrities, think A-listers, decide to take control of the political game by pushing Sylvester Stallone as their presidential candidate. The tone swings between absurdity and sharp wit, definitely poking fun at the absurdities of fame and politics. The pacing moves briskly, keeping you engaged, while the practical effects, especially in the puppet designs, add a unique layer to the humor. The performances, especially those from the puppeteers, are quite impressive, bringing a distinct charm to the whole setup. It’s not your typical political satire, that’s for sure, but it captures a wild time in the '80s with its off-the-wall premise.
