so I just got to see the new movie Reagan which stars Dennis Quaid who of course plays Ronald Reagan the 40th President of the United States and with this being a movie about a somewhat modern president it's going to be a movie that is very divisive just depending on where you stand in the political aisle is probably going to determine your enjoyment of this movie no matter what I actually say about the technical aspects of the film for me this one's a little bit of a mixed bag there's a lot of this movie that I really really enjoyed and other aspects that I just did not love first things first this is obviously just a very bright take on the person that is Ronald Reagan no matter how you feel about him this a movie that clearly the people behind it really love him as a president which is fine but because of that you're really getting a positive take you're not getting a movie that delves into the darker side of some of these human beings I think Dennis quate does a great job as the character of Ronald Reagan he sounds like him he looks like him at times and I think he overall does an amazing job but this film just technically it's a little bit disjointed I did not love the pacing the script here is a little bit messy and at times Ronald Reagan just does not feel like a real human being even Nancy Reagan it just feels like characters more so than actual real people this is a biop piic of
