He created Veep too :wow:

Veep is cool, but personally, I'd put Brass Eye, Alan Partridge and In The Thick Of It (The British version of Veep) ahead of it.

Brass Eye especially - they trolled the shyt out of the British establishment for years with it. I lost count of the celebrities and Members Of Parliament they bodied.

Watch this shyt ASAP. Armando Iannucci might very well be the greatest satirist alive. :laff:

The best part of the movie is that the premise isn't even that comedic, he follows the plot of the (serious) comic book quite well, but just chucks it full of jokes.

At times that makes the movie incredibly dark, but the comedy is so typically British that it still works. It's not as consistently brilliant as say In The Loop but scenes as the Mozart concert, Molotov's insane logic about party loyalty and the search for a good doctor (when all the good ones have been shot) are satire at its finest.
