We went to see to movie, "W" tonight. On the surface the easiest way to say this is: If you don't like George W. Bush, you probably will like or appreciate the movie. If you like George W. Bush, you won't see it.
The movie is well made and the events are based on actual events, but how does one know what these people say in private? (Its like when I watch football games and the sportscasters are telling us what the coaches and players are thinking!) Close but who knows.
The actors are spot on. Josh Brolin (last seen in "No Country for Old Men") does the best job since Saturday Night Live. Richard Dreyfuss IS Cheney. And the actors who play Condolessa and Karl Rove look, act & talk as real as real can be.
So, this is not a review at all. I'm glad I saw it and it provoked a lot of thought about how W became the person 
he is. Did it change any opinions? Not really!
he is. Did it change any opinions? Not really! But I almost feel sorry for him. Almost! Heh-Heh
