I’ve stumbled across the IMDb listing for this many times over the last couple of years, mostly when clicking filmographies of actors in movies I’m watching to see what their upcoming projects are (or if they’re still alive), and McNamara’s name always sends up a small flag because of both all of the low-ranked DTV and TV movies he’s done, but also the large number of churchy movies he’s produced in recent years. And Davi and Voight, well . . .

A bunch of hacks in all of the supporting roles.

It must be a limited theatrical release and seems more like a TV movie.

Oliver Stone should have done this and he would have gotten better actors.

That trailer makes this look like shit. I’m kind of disappointed in Quaid for making this movie.

A legit Reagan movie is fine but this looks like some right wing hero worship circle jerk.

Penelope Ann Miller's still alive?

I had to look at her IMDB list and I haven't seen her in anything (show or movie) since Flipped in 2010.

And this thing has been in the can for like 2-3 years already. Quaid was doing the promotional circuit and he went on Jordan Petersen's podcast to talk about it. I'm not a JP fan, so didn't watch it.

Even if it was good I wouldn't watch it. I remember seeing "The Iron Lady" with a good Meryl Streep performance as Margaret Thatcher. I hated her politics so much I was boiling by the end. Regan would be the same.

She played Dahmer's mom in that Netflix series.

She could not act for shit so that is why she was probably not getting a lot of roles.

I just wished it was Oliver Stone doing this and he made interesting and entertaining movies with Nixon and Dubya.
