You know this is actually very good casting. Mr Bean as Brown is like perfect and D. Baldwin can make that baleful gaze look that Stevie does so well. Don't even get me started on Joe Pesci as the italian PM = ROFL LMAO! so perfect … major cudos to the casting director although Will Smith as Obama was just too pat and easy.

LOL. Thanks for this post.

Daniel Baldwin was the one who looked least like his counterpart.

When was the last time you saw Daniel Baldwin?

Will Smith hasn't got the dignity/class to play Obama – I think it should be Denzel Washington.

Judging from these photographs, maybe Obama should have been played by Bill Clinton!
