Laughably clichéd, but at least this Obama-era movie has an African-American fictional president. Roland Emmerich directed, and this is the fifth of his movies I've rejected.

I enjoyed this at the time and it remains entertaining, plausibility aside. The Aughts soundtrack is good and the cast is game, pun intended. Yes, I didn't even mind the soccer. And it has one of the best cat-fights of its genre. There's a lot less of Shakespeare left here than there was of Jane Austen in Clueless, and I do wish that Viola's two female friends had been given more to do, but it works, enough. Andy Fickman directed.

Wikipedia has this as a "heist comedy," but the first quarter hour is more of a downbeat family dramedy. Steven Soderbergh directed.
