Info

In a small mountain village lives a man with a challenging name, Giuseppe Garibaldi (one of Italy's "fathers of the fatherland"), but everybody call him with the nickname Peppino. Love fishing, the company of friends, the library where he works as a precarious employee. He is an optimistic person even if his child accuse him of being a wannabe. One day, due to a mess of politicians, an amazing thing happens: Peppino is mistakenly elected President of the Italian Republic. Pulled out from his quiet life, is to play a role for which he knows he is obviously inappropriate, but his common sense and his instinctive gestures are incredibly effective, except for the etiquette, for which he is in trouble. The inflexible and fascinating Deputy Secretary General of the Presidency of the Republic, Janis Clementi, is anxious to no avail in an attempt to regulate the unpredictable actions of the President...

Welcome Mr. President! Audience Reviews

Cubussoli Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!
Manthast Absolutely amazing
Keeley Coleman The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;
Dana An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.
ComedyFan2010 I don't know too much about Italy's politics. The ones I met who came from there said it is bad and corrupt. This is all I know. If I knew the details maybe I would see the movie in a different way. But as a foreigner it was just bad to me.The whole movie felt like communist propaganda. All politicians are evil, some fisherman will come and really care about people giving away money to them. They even have a scene singing a song about Che Guevara. The scenes where he throws his family and friends under the bus for illegal activities remind me of communist propaganda in Russia where a boy got his father killed for "truth". At the end there are a few minutes where he says that we are all crooked and should look at that and start the change with ourselves. Was a beautiful message but too small in such a long movie that feels like promoting a totally different thing.I would even rate it higher as a communist propaganda if it at least was funny, but it wasn't. Here is where I think there might have been a difference if I knew more references. But I doubt it would be that big. The actors are good but nothing they say or do is very funny.
vjparts Just great, watch it, really what politic is in Europe. In Italy, France, Greece, Spain, Portugal, Germany or Austria. Well I know there is no President in Spain or Germany but you get the message. And it's very funny. Just watch it. And again. And again. And maybe one more time ! OMG, and there is no G, I can tell you... Rules here are more extremist than in Italy, they try everything to keep my review away. The president guy is funny and real. The president guy is real and funny. Wll Ms omdb is still fighting me, I don't think she would about a movie reporting to the guy obama but OK I get the rules, the local rules anyway./
