The acting ?

I saw this at a premiere screening and was blown away. The story is well told and accurate, which was refreshing. It was a reasonable portrayal of a fascinating man. What really got me was the acting. Sebastian Stan was phenomenal. He nailed Trump's mannerisms, and yet never fell into a caricature.Jeremy Strong did a fantastic job of portraying Roy Cohen. The only thing that didn't quite land for me was that the character of Roy Cohen was presented as somewhat sympathetic and not as sinister and psychopathic as he actually was (not Strong's fault - that was the script). Other than that, an excellent and thought-provoking biopic.

Starts as an 8, then drifts downward

The first part of this biopic is excellent. Sebastian Stan as a young Donald Trump is very good. He accurately portrays Trump's ambitious drive as well as the naivete of a young man not sure how to bring those ambitions to fruition. Then Trump meets Roy Cohn (Jeremy Strong), the evil legal genius who advises him on how to fight the federal government's charges on racism in Trump's father's real estate empire. Cohn then helps him with other legal matters including getting property tax relief. Those parts of the movie are interesting and compelling with great performances by both Sebastain Stan and Jeremy Strong. In addition, Martin Donovan as Fred Trump and Maria Bakalova as Ivana Trump are excellent. But then the movie rushes into the mid-1980's without much exposition or explanation. That is when the movie was a letdown for me - the time period is given short shrift by writer Gabriel Sherman as if he didn't know where to go after the interesting parts of the story with Cohn encouraging Trump's narcissism, angry rhetoric and avarice were over. And by the end of movie, you will almost feel sorry for Cohn when he realizes that he has created an even worse monster than himself. I think the movie could have been better as a mini-series (with some better writing), but I would still recommend it for the standout performances of Sebastain Stan and Jeremy Strong.

The Price of Ambition

"The Apprentice" doesn't hold back. It doesn't try to be objective or find nuance where there is none; instead, it dives headfirst into the rise of a young Donald Trump, portraying him as a man shaped by manipulation, lack of scruples, and relentless ambition. This isn't a traditional biopic-it's a reconstruction of how his mindset was forged, leading him to become a figure who would later leave a profound mark on American politics.Sebastian Stan takes on the challenge of portraying Trump without resorting to caricature or exaggerated imitation. His performance is unsettling because he captures not just the speech patterns and mannerisms, but also the calculated opportunism that defines him. Alongside him, Jeremy Strong plays Roy Cohn, Trump's mentor and a pivotal figure in his development. Strong's presence is magnetic, making it clear that Cohn's influence was instrumental in shaping Trump's worldview.Ali Abbasi directs with a firm hand, avoiding unnecessary embellishments. The film works as a stark examination of corruption, power, and the dangerous alliances that can transform an individual into a media monster. It's a raw depiction that makes it clear that impunity and cynicism are essential tools in the world it portrays.If The Apprentice has a flaw, it's that it doesn't always delve deeply into the psychology of its central character. It presents the events but sometimes lacks a more detailed analysis of his inner motivations. However, the emotional impact is undeniable.In the end, the film accomplishes exactly what it sets out to do: it unsettles. There is no redemption, no unexpected twists-just a stark exposure of a transformation where anything goes in the pursuit of power. If you already despised Trump before watching, by the end, that feeling will have only intensified.
