this doesn’t surprise me. People who love Trump don’t want to see or hear anything critical about him. People who hate Trump don’t want to see anything nuanced about him. And most normal people are just exhausted by him.

Maybe a good movie to make like 20 yrs from now.

1. The film just opened yesterday, so obviously this is nonsense 2. Daily Mail is operated by Rupert Murdoch, and it is a sister site to Fox News

If you're seeing this, it must mean you support Trump.

I didn’t even know this was a movie. My husband and I have a movie pass and are always looking for something to see. If we didn’t know about this, chances are no one did.

You are right, but I don't understand how he is in the lead with most people being sick of him. It's absurd that the GOP nominated him for a THIRD time. 🤦‍♀️

It has nothing to do with nuance. We just get tired to seeing his stupid face everywhere. Syrians see less of Assad.

I didn’t want to watch the W movie for the same reason— I had just lived through all that stuff. Why would I want to see a movie about it?

Exactly. Can't wait for him and the family to be gone from politics or the public eye.

you're skipping over "everyone in media and Hollywood has so thoroughly discredited themselves, that nobody remotely interested in a good biography trusts that anyone is capable of delivering it about Trump"

We're quite used to hearing highly critical takes on Trump. Most of it is nonsensical because it's based on SIO (Sudden Intentional obtuseness.)

Exhausted....like those 100K+ attendees at his last rally?

People who already know he’s a scumbag didn’t need to see this…

The movie Hollywood made about Trump is nuanced? Or was that an in general comment?

As I said in my review, it gives both sides plenty to hate.

I literally never heard of this movie

It would be pretty difficult for it reach any real box office success, considering it’s throttle distribution?

Yet another example of "The Myth of the Modern Audience" - the idea that there's a huge untapped market of woke consumers.

They've seen the real thing. Why would they want to watch a pale imitation?

yes!

I'm surprised this isn't a straight to Netflix film.

I would’ve watched it in December.

I thought it was gonna be a streaming show

I couldn't say it better myself.

Yeah. I didn't even know it was playing.

I remember that Vice almost made me like Cheney

Or maybe (I don't know from, just spit-ballin') the movie just sucks. Roy Cohn, at least, is a darkly fascinating character.

I don’t disagree with anything you said, but the movie is, in fact, very well made and acted. I might be the only person who loved both this AND the Reagan movie.

Just looks awful

We’re extremely exhausted by him.

I actually had no idea that this movie was out

Ok (((Goldberg)))

A lot of films flops, even from the big studios. It might also be just poor advertising or audience scores.

True, so how are the Democrats doing in your opinion?

This would’ve been a much better idea 10+ years in the future, let the room cool off a bit

Still waiting for the "liberal fascism" movie. But maybe, so are you.

Or…people just don’t want to go to theaters to see…wait until it comes to

@Netflix

…the new home of anywhere/anytime

Is the film nuanced?

This should have been a tv series or on Netflix would have done better.

"This doesn't surprise me as it I'll just make shit up after the fact and say it fits all my priors."

It likely flopped because there was almost zero marketing.

biopics shouldn’t be made about people still alive

Agree 100%. There is no market for this movie lmao, ESPECIALLY right now

Or, maybe it’s just not a good movie. It’s funny that you think you’re the arbiter of “normal.”

Reagan on the other hand was amazing!

I didn’t know it was out already. I do want to see it.

It is something you want to watch at home.

It’ll do better on DVD

apparently you haven’t looked at the recent polls to see what “normal people” are thinking…

I am exhausted by him, but I’m more exhausted with the deep state occupation of our country’s government, which will become permanent if we allow them to install their puppet into our executive branch.

A lot of people just don't care about anything coming out of Hollywood and their ilk. Doesn't matter what it is. I'll make an exception for John Wick or anything with Keanu Reeves.

My take; these days of political insanity, wars around the world, and hurricanes upending peoples lives, this is the last type of movie people are going to pay to see. We need more escape movies and good animation for the kids

no, they didn’t market it, like at all. some in the replies didn’t even know it was coming out, so the fact that they failed to advertise a movie about a current presidential candidate during peak election time is kinda on them, not the viewers
