## Description

Oliver Stone directs this dramatisation of the life and eight-year presidency of George W Bush. The film features an all-star cast playing the White House's most high-profile figures, with Josh Brolin as the president, Elizabeth Banks as Laura Bush, Richard Dreyfuss as Vice President Dick Cheney, Jeffrey Wright as Secretary of State Colin Powell, Thandie Newton as Condoleezza Rice and James Cromwell as George Bush Senior. Like other Oliver Stone movies, it polarised opinion almost immediately on its release. While some have seen the film as a two-hour character assassination, others have complained that it is too sympathetic towards the president.

Review: Strangely sympathetic and verging on the Michael Moore! - I adored Stone's JFK film and watch it often. Nixon (the film!) was great. This movie is hugely entertaining and is to be recommended especially to sceptics. As Stone reveals in the excellent Extras, Bush is seen almost as a victim, both of his own innate stupidity but also of his clever and bullying, domineering father. What comes through is Dubya's total adoration of/by his wife; his faith in god which (he thinks) renders him invincible and infallible, and his belief that he genuinely wanted to do good during his presidency. Stone interweaves Bush' wild youth with the run-up to the Iraq war. The 'Michael Moore' treatment is, for example, the Robin Hood music (hilarious) while Bush debates military strategy; the caricature treatment of Condoleeza Rice and some of the camera work. I was very impressed with this film, having almost been put off by critics. If you have an opinion of Blair and Bush and the Iraq invasion, this is a good piece of critique. Bet you end up feeling sorry for Bush!!!
Review: Very even handed ! - For anyone wanting a Bush bashing Michael Moore type movie then this fair minded film is not for you ! The people behind this interesting film have done right by open-minded viewers as it shows how George W Bush became the man that he is. He had a struggle with drink & not being able to hold down a job while having to compete with his brother Jeb for their Dad's affection. The cast do an excellent job depicting Rumsfeld , Cheney , Rice et al and Josh Brolin just has George W Bush to a tee. It is tragic that a man who set out to do good ended up with such problems - the well written script makes this very clear. There is much pathos & drama but with just enough wry humor to help things along. The editing is clever as it shows recent events of the Bush presidency and things from his past thus showing how he ended up being the man he is and why he did what he did. It could have been a mish-mash but thanks to the editors skill the movie flows very well indeed. For someone who wants to understand the Bush presidency and the man himself this is not a bad place to start.desertcart are selling this for a good price and so is a worthy addition to a drama lovers DVD collection.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Bush jr according to Oliver stone
*by M***G on 20 March 2009*

Like Stones' other biopics of american presidents this is very well crafted. Josh Brolin does a great job starring as Bush jr, and in some scenes he is eerily lookalike. The film alternates between the time just before the invasion of Iraq, and episodes from W:s reckless youth. We get snapshots from the White House, Bushs talks with Powell, Rice, Rumsfeld, Rove and, of course, Cheney. The latter being the important man behind it all is being made clear. We also get episodes from W:s alcoholism, his "rebirth" and most important: the relationship with Bush senior. The heart of the story seems to be this relationship, where senior favors Jeb and find Jr hard to deal with, and where Jr feels patronized and so on. Actually I wonder how true this really is, I mean how much does Stone know about this? And isn't it unethical to speculate about another living man's psyche and shortcomings in a major movie like this, even if it it a former president? The events seems a little too recent for that. Of course, Stone doesn't sink to the garbage level of Michael Moore in this, and all in all the portrait is not wholly unsympathetic. Bush is not depicted as a scoundrel or demonised here. But still...
