Earth Girls Aren’t Presidential

Toward the end of ”Commander in Chief,” the drama hints that it’s probably just going to continually contrive situations in which Allen will triumph no matter what. Allen is giving her acceptance speech when the Teleprompter mysteriously dies. Naturally, she is forced to speak from the heart; and, naturally, she goes on to earn the respect of the nation, even those who are against her. In that obvious moment, ”Commander in Chief” loses much of the credibility it needs to be truly culturally provocative. It almost crosses the line into fantasy.

“If you think I’m going to sit by while a woman is executed, tortured, for having sex, you’re sorely mistaken,” retorts Allen.
Yick.
Blech.
