The film “W.” is a biographical film, showcasing the life of George W. Bush and his presidency during the beginning of the Iraqi invasion. The film documents Bush from his college days of pledging and partying, to his multiple job attempts, drinking problem, trying to get out of the shadow of his father and excelling brother, to helping his father with his campaign for president, becoming governor of Texas, and eventually president. The film depicts Bush (Josh Brolin) as rebellious in his youth and having a hard time holding a job and living up to his family name. The film also tries to give you a look at what was going on behind closed doors during the decision making of invading Iraq and taking down Suddam Hussein. Brolin does an exceptional job of grasping Bush’s facial expressions, staggering word talk, and goofy joking manner. During his presidential run they show how “off” he is when it comes to talking with the media, his ambitions of doing right by the people, and mainly trying to do better than his father. There’s a sense that the movie tries to make the viewer understand the infamous president. There are the numerous fall outs with his father, his disappointing loss when he tried to take the in the 19th congressional district position in Texas, realization of his alcohol addiction, becoming a born again Christian and the constant tug of war taking place won war decisions with his administration. The movie erratically jumps from his younger confused days to his post war presidential term. It does nothing as far as entertainment and doesn’t reveal too much that the world doesn’t already know. The storyline is jumbled and could’ve gone deeper inside Bush’s first term instead of constantly showing him drinking senselessly and living off his father. We already know that Bush has made countless bad decisions and this movie does nothing more than show you “how” those bad decisions were made. Not much insight in this movie outside of his youth, so you won’t be missing much if you don’t see it.
