‘Reagan’ is out now on Blu-Ray
Watching biographical films can be nice sometimes. When done right they can bring the story of some historical figure to light in an exciting way. When I first heard about Reagan I had doubts if it would be good or not. I was able to get a review copy of this movie and here is what I thought of it.

You can read the plot for Reagan here:
Dennis Quaid delivers a tour-de-force performance as 40th U.S. President Ronald Reagan in this cinematic journey that encapsulates the spirit of the American dream. From his small-town roots to the glitter of Hollywood where he meets actress Jane Wyman (Mena Suvari) and Warner Brothers’ studio president Jack Warner (Kevin Dillon), Reagan’s incredible story culminates in obtaining the presidency with the support of his loving wife Nancy (Penelope Ann Miller). Told through the voice of a former KGB agent (Oscar® winner Jon Voight, 1978, Actor in a Leading Role, Coming Home), Reagan offers a perspective as unique as it is captivating.

This was an okay film, but I can’t say it was amazing either. There are some strong moments here, but others that drag this story down. There were also odd moments in the soundtrack that didn’t make sense nor did they help that scene much. The ending felt a tad long and doesn’t do the best job bringing this movie to a close.
