Entertainment Reviews:
3 stars out of 4 -- THE FRONT RUNNER plunges viewers headlong into the bewildering jumble of entitlement, idealism, unintended consequences and still-unresolved issues that transformed Hart from a high-minded statesman to tabloid roadkill with dizzying speed.
Washington Post
[Jason] Reitman is one of cinema's cleverest filmmakers, but here his blending of humor and sentimentality approaches the maudlin.

Creative Screenwriting
Rating: 3/5 --
The film, initially zippy (mostly thanks to J K Simmons as Hart's seen-it-all spin doctor), soon turns into a self-righteous mess.

London Evening Standard
Rating: 3/5 --
Effectively captures the knife-edge bustle of political stagecraft.

Daily Telegraph (UK)
[S]mart, fast and funny....A tip-top piece of entertainment starring Hugh Jackman as Hart and Vera Farmiga as his wife, Lee, that is as significant as it is enjoyable.
Los Angeles Times
This is not a picture of Gary Hart as a man as much as it is a look at a short period that changed his life, as well as all of ours. But it's also important to note that the constant drone of the never ending news cycle began with this story.

If you thought The Front Runner was going to tell you something more about Gary Hart, then think again.

Product Description:
Set in 1988, during the much-publicized three weeks leading up to the Democratic presidential nominations, this true story story centers on Colorado charmer Gary Hart (Hugh Jackman) and the media tirade against him following the revelations of his extra-marital affair with a model. The scandal caused a media explosion in a new post-Watershed era of media-led personal exposes for the rich and famous; seeing his rising career derail as a result. Based on the original book by Mat Bai entitled "All the Truth is Out" Directed by Jason Reitman.
