A small town impersonator bears an uncanny resemblance to the President, and is asked to fill in for him while the president is ill. During his internship, he manages to win over the hearts of the people, balance the budget, win political favors, and woo the unsuspecting First Lady, by using com…

Killing Lincoln
Very Good 66 Points 2013

Admit it. You always wanted to know all the gory details about how John Wilkes Booth got into the Presidential box at Ford’s Theater, how he got away, got captured and got killed. Who hasn’t?

Killing Lincoln dramatizes that and more, providing an unflinching view of history that’s a valuab…

Killing Kennedy
Good 66 Points 2013

Killing Kennedy could easily be titled Kennedy’s Killer given its salutary focus on Lee Harvey Oswald. JFK we knew. It’s unfortunate then that Killing Kennedy spends time on the Leader of the Free World’s womanizing. Given 90 minutes of real runtime, bikinis take away from also understanding …

Reagan
Pretty Awful 66 Points 2011

A left wing hatchet job that purports to fairly document Ronald Reagan’s life and career, this abomination musters occasional respect for the great man in between extensive polemics from opponents of his politics. Reagan haters may find it worth watching. His fans will find themselves muttering…

Great 66 Points 2013

So big it came down to YES or NO. A national referendum on authoritarian rule, YES or NO?

NO won, a shock to Chile, many Latinos and the world. Turns out that pop was the way to nail the weasel. The weasel was General Augusto Pinochet, the strongman who had fixed the economy but crushed diss…

The Iron Lady
Barely OK 66 Points 2011

The Iron Lady? More like the Rusty Lady. Meryl Streep’s uncanny performance as Margaret Thatcher doesn’t redeem this disjointed, disrespectful and disappointing biopic.

The Iron Lady focuses on Baroness Thatcher’s dotage, complete with dementia induced hallucinations. It achieves some pow…

The American Pr...
Very Good 66 Points 1995

The American President succeeds grandly as a romantic comedy and ironically as a revealing peek into cushy Democratic pieties, of which Aaron Sorkin and Rob Reiner’s 1990s movie is a cinematic catechism.

It focuses on a likeable man in the third year of his Presidency who is animated primari…
