Head of State
This story tells about a world of politics that we live in in the contemporary century where it speaks of an African-American politician with a high degree of thinking. This politician seems to think that he is an opportunity in a presidential campaign. In that story we follow the political situation in Washington, DC, through the public servant, Mays Gilliam, on her way to fame and glory among the public.

Not merely satisfied with stereotyping whites, Rock insists on taking shots at blacks, fat people, poor people and even spina bifida patients.

Chris Rock suffers from painful verbal constipation in this PG-13 clunker. Hollywood, make it NC-17 when Chris and Bernie run for re-election.

Although a reheated formula, Head of State dishes out a few original laughs due to in part to the writing of Chris Rock.

As a TV sitcom pilot, Head of State might have potential, but, on a multiplex screen, the execution (if not the premise) is thin.

Rock is a man who continues to perpetuate stereotypes for the price of "comedy" and continues making one terrible film after the other.

Not the sharpest political humor I've ever heard, but it gets my vote for the stupidest fun I've had in a long time.

It's pretty much a toothless dog.

'...Along comes Chris Rock with "Head of State", a mild comedy...'

... I liked this premise in movies like Dave, or the Eddie Murphy movie The Distinguished Gentleman, where the unknown or the underdog becomes the candidate or even the president, but this is so poorly done.
March 28, 2003
Though the comedy falls short of a debacle -- which is what such egocentric projects tend to be -- it isn't as sharp, fast or funny as Rock's stand-up routines.

A missed opportunity.
