  Guessing this film won’t be a money maker in NYC.

  A private company can play it or not. That’s their right. I suspect they didn’t play it because they didn’t think they could make money. I travel a lot for work. In the town where I live it sold out like crazy. It was packed.

  The next town over. I don’t know that they sold a single ticket.

  It’s a good movie but it isn’t a great movie. The best takeaways from it was Reagan was a good leader. Reagan could work with both sides. It’s why he crushed the election.

  The takeaway from the new Trump movie is that Reagan made America great again.

    There’s damn near universal consensus that it was a trash movie. When you look at a wider swatch of reviews, you see that it’s still trash, with the outlets most likely to give it a favorable review are things like “Epoch Times”, and “Gospel Coalition”.

      Oh no liberals didn’t like a movie! Cry me a river!

      I don’t care what critics think. I enjoyed the movie. Form your own opinion and don’t expect others to think for you.

      While most of the movie was just eh, the take aways were worth the price of admission.

      It’s nakedly hagiographic, so of course a random conservative lemmy mod is going to defend it. De gustibus some disputandum, eh?

  When businesses don’t do what we want, it’s censorship. Free speech is when we do stuff other people don’t want. Can I get a hell yeah, boys?

  Boys?
