I guess I'm gonna see this in a couple hours. First Oliver Stone movie I've seen in a theater since... what...? Born on the Fourth of July, I think.

It wasn't as funny as I had hoped, and its pretty much a story about everything we already know.

The more indepth look into his life made me sad though.

5/10

The geeks of the world are slipping - still no torrent!

i particularly liked the casting, everyone except Thandie Newton as Condy Rice. She was too much of a caricature, a cartoon version of the Secretary of State.

Brolin, Banks, Dreyfuss, Wright, Burstyn, Cromwell, and the Rove dude...

all shined

HAHAHAH

I want to see this so badly. My bf saw it said it wasn't as funny as he'd hoped too! I have never expected a comedy out of this. The fact this man was our 'leader' for 8 years is nooooooooo laughing matter in my lil opinion. I have such a packed weekend but I will try to find a moment to sneak out to el theaterO.

With so many Bushisms to choose from it was really lacking.

Finally saw it. I was totally disappointed. It dragged on and seemed so slow and boring. It hit on all the major faux pas of this presidency but in all that amount of film they could have packed in so much more. I actually felt a glaring omission was the result of the 2000 election and his controversial inauguration etc... I assumed the flashbacks and the current events would eventually collide into inauguration day and then roll credits. I had hoped to gain some additional insight or something, I dunno. I expected more.
