The way Donald ultimately treats Roy is... I mean, kind of appropriate considering the shit this guy has done.
They did so fucking well getting you invested in these characters, and for me at least, that is rare.
I usually never care that much about any of the characters in movies/shows, I've said it before.
So regardless of accuracy and potential biases, I still think it's such a good movie.
Whoever made this should be proud. Visually, it's excellent... perfect casting, great acting.
I enjoyed watching it even though it was sad. So I would say, if you don't mind a sad story, it's good movie.
"The body is like a battery, it has finite energy and it runs out." You know what man, it's shit like this that makes me like this movie outside of the Donald Trump thing. That's what gives this movie most of its value.
It's like The Matrix cloaked in a weird, heavily fictionalized story about Donald Trump's early life. I absolutely love it.
All of these people are so flawed and yet there are these gems along the way. Just exceptional.
The second half of this movie becomes totally absurd in some areas, and it's almost even funny. They did a great job of portraying Donald on speed. I gotta say.
But the whole thing still maintains this undertone of... pity. You feel sorry for Donald in almost every chapter of this story.
Ultimately the movie did go off the rails, but most of it was actually symbolic. I don't think much of the obvious fictional parts were meant to be literal. To think they were would be underestimating the creator of this film.
All in all, there was too much sad for too little payoff if you just want to watch a random movie for no reason. You'd be better off going with a comedy. I give this movie an 8/10.
