The Apprentice: A História de Trump

...Ali Abbasi’s The Apprentice proves entertaining enough, thanks in large part to its self-reflexive visual cues drawn from the different media eras in which the two halves are set.

...undoubtedly humanizes Trump, but not in a way that softens him. If anything, it makes his nightmarish ascent and oafish brutality easier to grasp and even more terrifying.

...a compelling tragedy that also mashes up the ‘80s style ambition of Scarface with the creation myth of Frankenstein.

Jeremy Strong is the Trump card in measured biopic of the Donald.

The mentor/protégé relationship between two terrible people makes for compelling, well-acted drama.

This may be a film about a guy who’ll do anything for attention, but The Apprentice is clever enough to succeed without doing the same.
