The Apprentice

A very shallow and aimless wobble. I wanted to praise Sebastian Stan for deciding not to make faces and just act out normally, but everything was ruined by Jeremy Strong, who turned his, in general, central role into a stupid caricature. Method acting is excusable only and exclusively for Daniel Day Lewis, otherwise it turns out like Jared Leto in the movie about the House of Prada, or like here.

As an electoral diversion, this is a complete zero, as a character study, there is too little material, for a black comedy of humor here with a teaspoon. They obviously wanted to do something in the spirit of Success in tone, but why, if it already exists and it's impossible to do better anyway?

It's a terrible, just terrible movie!! Everything is not true, everything is a lie. This never happened, the main character was distorted to the point of impossibility. Fake news, I'm thoroughly disappointed!!!

The film tells how in 1973, a young Donald Trump met lawyer Roy Cohn, who became his mentor. Roy Cohn teaches Trump the mindset of a "winner": shows him how to do business, how to break the rules and how to succeed. He teaches him three rules: always attack, never admit you're wrong, and always claim victory, even if you lose. Roy's mentoring helps Trump step out of his father's shadow, build a bunch of hotels and become incredibly successful. But the more success he achieves, the more he loses his humanity.

Donald Trump himself called this film a cheap and disgusting slander designed to damage his 2024 presidential campaign. But I don't think he even watched it. Because he's been walked around a lot less than he deserves. Despite the fact that in the course of the film he becomes an unprincipled bastard, he is still shown here as a punchy man who can beautifully take care of a girl and achieve great success. I wouldn't be surprised if there are people who decide that this film is complementary.

Sebastian Stan does not slide into a parody of Trump, but plays really well, and Jeremy Strong in the role of Roy Cohn turned out to be memorable. It is rather strange to try so hard for the sake of "cheap slander". If this movie is a joke, then it's a very light one. And, as we can see, he did not harm the Trump presidential campaign in any way. The film can even be recommended, although I do not know why anyone would waste time on the success story of a young Trump.

Half of the film you are watching an extremely interesting ascent from mud to princes, half of the film you are disgusted to look at this beast

Life is cruel. If it really was shown about Trump, or maybe Biden's order.

The game of J.Strong is incomparable!

The film left mixed emotions. The acting is good, no questions asked. The rise of a hero and the fall again, that's understandable - politics, business. I definitely don't want to review it. It is unclear whether it is custom-made or not, it is also ambiguous here.

Still, I like Stan better in another person, it's a pity that he was nominated for this role..
Strong - causes contradictory feelings, as if on the verge of starting to overdo it.
Maria Bakalova - the charm
And the movie itself is, well, average. I still think that biographies about acting people (well, who haven't retired or died) are strange..

I even felt sorry for this guy in the end.
It turned out to be a cool movie, I'm not sorry for the time spent.

The main lesson of Cohn? "Fraud is an unusual hobby for the rich"

Well , yes, they are poorly engaged in sports, it is better to pump out fat 🤮
