This work is mildly satirical. The difference here is that the bite is so mild that this barely works as a satire.

Gervais has missed the mark again with Special Correspondents, a lacklustre comedy that's big on absurdity but surprisingly low on laughs.

There's nothing wrong with the type of movie "Special Correspondents" wants to be. The problem is that Mr. Gervais doesn't appear capable of making a good version of it.

If Special Correspondents has one prominent problem - aside from running out of gas before the finish line - it is that no one player in the cast is prepared to step up and dominate when needed.

Let me be clear: Nothing about Special Correspondents is relevant or interesting about media, warfare, or human nature.

Lots of profanity, drugs in so-so satire.

If it's actually disappointing, rather than merely just OK, it's that one (still) expects more from the co-creator of The Office.

A wasted opportunity. [Full review in Spanish]

A tepid Gervais is better than no Gervais at all, and Special Correspondents has its moments, most of which are supplied by supporting cast members like America Ferrera and Vera Farmiga.

Special Correspondents is like a mish-mash of some great ideas that go absolutely nowhere.
April 29, 2016
There's a great satire to be made about our modern interaction with journalists, and how gullible the American people can be when it comes to how reporters shape stories to their own benefit. "Special Correspondents" is not that movie.

What Gervais may have previously turned into a pointed satire of the news media instead becomes a flimsy farce that's surprisingly low on laughs.
