Bad President

What were you thinking Eddy? Soooo sad.... You must have been very hard up for money. I get it, Trump bad, make fun, but you was once a great comedian back in the day. Sadly, you were the only actor in this flick that I even heard of. Fire your agent Eddy, seriously. I guess the producers blew their load on Eddie's paycheck because they had nothing left for production. Not sure if the two blond caterpillars taped to the actor playing trumps eyebrows, and the cheap cat fur hairpiece is supposed to be that cheesy or just cheap... if your having difficulty sleeping this movie is better than sleeping meds.

All lies and miss information. Nothing new coming from Hollywood.

I still find it hard to believe I sat through this. It isn't the worst movie of the year, but it ie a woeful experience. At times, it seems like a badly written documentary since truth is stranger than fiction. I'd probably enjoy it if I lived where weed was legal, but I couldn't get into it other than laughing at the similarities to reality.

If you take this movie for what it is, it's kind of a funny take on trump being elected in 2016. This is a comedians way of a Long form sketch. It plays on it's humor, and can be weird at times...but, for what it is, it's not too bad. Events in the movie, didn't take place the way they did in the film. That's why it's satire. Some of the casting is weak, but the guy who played trump...didn't look like him (again, didn't have to), but the impersonation was there. Right down to even his mannerisms. Some of Eddie's jokes are hit and miss, but, for a satire movie, it makes fun of itself..It doesn't need to be anymore than it is.

Granted, I must admit that I was initially expecting this 2020 satirical comedy to be utter rubbish. Why? Well, I mean a movie that portrays - albeit in a funny way - the orange leprechaun that was 4 years the head of state, well that was just not exactly the recipe for something great.

Or so I thought...

Turns out that writer and director Param Gill actually managed to put together something that was rather fun to watch, and it is actually fun to watch this satirical jabs at the orange man.

Eddie Griffin was actually rather enjoyable in this movie, portraying Satan, the man whom orchestrated the rise to power for the orange goofball. While actor Jeff Rector - playing Donald Trump - has some of the mannerisms and speech patterns down for imitating Trump, he just didn't really look the part. That was a bit of a shame, because it would have been more enjoyable if the actor actually looked more like the orange man himself. And as for Kevin Indio Copeland - portraying Vladimir Putin - well that was just a massive swing and a miss, because he looked nothing like Putin.

One thing that was missing, was the orange skin tone of Trump, actor Jeff Rector just wasn't smeared enough in orange gunk to make him stand out like the actual clown does.

"Bad President" proved to be entertaining and enjoyable enough for a single viewing, but that is also about it. The movie just doesn't have the contents to support more than a single viewing.

The release date of the movie was just good, as a satirical comedy about the orange man couldn't have come at a more appropriate time.

My rating of "Bad President" actually lands on a six out of ten stars. The movie was fun to watch, but it was hardly a comedy gem in the making. Regardless of you being a Trump devotee or not, this movie is something that should be watched, although I am sure that a lot of Trump supporters out there will find offense in a spoof such as this.
