Featured review
Wow, I did not expect to like this as much as I did.
Donald Trump, a business man with ambitions and a lot of family backing. The Trump name is under a lawsuit on the grounds of racism, Donald meets a man named Roy Cohn, he is a big time lawyer who has defeated the government and holds a shaky reputation. Roy goes beyond the case as he takes a liking to Donald and shows him the ropes of how to be the best of the best. The rise of Donald Trump is rooted in Roy Cohn.
Seeing a large part of Trumps life like this is really interesting. I'm not 100% on what's fact or fiction or what has been stretched but the movie is very believable.
Seeing Donald pick up Roy's habits and manners is very interesting, the hand gestures and the over use of adjectives is very funny. He took what Roy thought him and turned it to the max.
Playing fast and lose with his families fortune, bending the rules, favours, blackmail, all a very entertaining story, 7/10.
