I loved all the roles! And how about that throw back to parent trap with Elain Hendrix, i have not seen her in a long time but what a performance. This movie was hilarious and I loved the music they used throughout it as well. The story was the best part of the movie to me, I always like movies that have a happy ending and this one didn't fail to deliver. I don't usually post reviews but I thought that after having the chance to hear the whole cast and director at the question and answer portion of the film festival I would hop on and say great job to the whole team and keep up the good work, me and my husband enjoyed this very much! If you have not already seen this movie give it a go!

I thought this movie was awesome! It had me entertained and laughing for the entire movie. I thought the actors did a good job and I could care less about the political direction I thought the movie was taking just because I myself are not huge into picking sides but I still thought it was a great film. The idea was very un original in a great way! Something different that I typically watch but with that it brought a new side to independent flicks for me and how you can really make any story line un fold into something really really cool. I't seems like most of the reviews that I'm reading are either for it or against it but I loved it go check it out for yourself!

In my opinion people are giving this film too many bad reviews, almost like they never even saw what I watched, I thought it was great. At the end of the day It had great humor and was entertaining all the way through. Even going past the political issues this movie had a good cast and well written script. It has a great perspective on modern day politics and had me thoroughly entertained. It was great to see familiar actors throughout the whole film. Taryn Manning killed this role! I've always enjoyed watching her performances but this one put the icing on the cake for me. Go check this movie out, one of the best independent comedies I've seen this year!

What a wonderful tale of the true deviance of America's political parties. I was very impressed by the approach the director took in this film to really step out from the norm and create something that was thoroughly entertaining while at the same time questioning both sides of modern politics. But setting political issues aside I just flat out enjoyed watching this movie. The cast was well chosen for each character and I loved the way the script panned out through the whole film. Much props for the director for once again stepping out of the norm and putting together such a great and well written project. I would recommend this film to anyone who has a interest in politics and just straight up like comedy's. Great job to everyone who was a part of this film.

I loved this movie, I thought It gave a great representation of how stupid the political world can be sometimes right to the point, It could not of been any better. I get so sick and tired of people going back and fourth about right wing and left wing, this movie took a great approach with the humor and I just thought it had a really really good story line. The way the director played both sides kept it interesting and fresh. I never really knew too much about any of the cast before watching it but I couldn't say anything bad about any of them, the whole movie seemed to be very well put together. Great job, I give the movie a 10 out of 10, hope to see movie like this!

Swing state was a great film from start to bottom and it is not all the time I get to say that about a movie. I always love going to these independent film festivals and checking out the movies but It was cool to see one that took a comedic approach to all the political issues we have going on right now. But besides the gist of the movie I thought the actors did a great job and they all fit into their role so well and I really enjoyed the way the story proceeded throughout the entire film. The whole project seemed to be a light, comedic heart felt story that came at a wonderful time. I would suggest anyone to go and watch it if they have not already.

The film was done well for being an independent flick, well casted and entertaining. I'll just start off by saying the things I enjoyed about the movie. I thought whoever picked the cast did a great job, I liked how the characters developed throughout the whole film. It seemed like everyone fit in their role well and it showed. I also like the setting of the movie, It might just half to do with me being a Washington native ha. All aspects seemed to come together at the end to make it a funny, interesting and different film than most I see now days, majority of those being independent. I think there might of been some points during the film where It exaggerated the right wing a bit, but it kept me laughing and was in good heart, well done!

I don't know whats better, the fact that someone decided to finally make a movie about politics that took a shot at both sides or that It happened to be released at a time where we are all surrounded by political debates. This movie was directed well in my opinion, It took a look at both extreme sides of the political scale and came out the other side by creating a structure of humor that I think both sides can resonate with. I saw this movie at a festival and out of all the other movie this one stood out to me and was my favorite. I think people get to caught up in getting offended over the representation of "their political side" and forget to look at the quality of the movie and how its just a fun loving comedy at the end of it.

Swing State is a terribly written film made worse by weak directing, overacting and a soundtrack that made me want to tear the few hairs remaining on my head out. The writer of this film is very clearly not apprised of modern US politics. His simplistic caricatures are insulting the intelligent and well-read audience. My friends who saw this with me agreed that this film is made for a group of unthinking liberals who want their beliefs regurgitated back to them on screen. There is nothing clever or unique about this movie except in its complete worthlessness as a piece of art or a political commentary. The directing was wildly off. We actually felt sorry for the actors in this film because it is a blight to their film catalogs. This won't spark debate of any kind because it is one-dimensional. I wish independent film were better represented.
