"W" = Wack

From "Wall Street" To "W"?

August 6. 2008

I recently saw a clip from Oliver Stone's forthcoming film "W" about president George W. Bush and it was bad. Turns out I'm not the only one that thinks so, as numerous sites held negative reviews of it.

While Stone has had hits with successful films like the hard hitting "Wall Street" this "W" film is definitely a miss.

The casting was not right, particularly that of Bush and Condoleezza Rice. It's just ill fitting and the nuances are all wrong. His characterization of George Bush sr. seems off as well.

The story line appears to be weak and not one that makes you want to keep watching. The acting was also poor and overdone.
