Oliver Stone certainly knows how to tell a story. This look at the life of America’s 43rd President paints a portrait of George W. Bush (Josh Brolin) before and after his rebirth in Christianity and turn away from the bottle. Quite a contrast! Yet in many ways the W. who emerges as Commander-in-Chief is still the same hot-headed, ungrounded troublemaker he was as a student at Yale as he goes off hunting WMDs in Iraq. It was a special treat watching Richard Dreyfuss as the Vice, dastardly Dick Cheney, and James Cromwell as Bush the Elder. The entire cabinet was well portrayed, from Colin Powell (who comes off as a true patriot and hero) and Conny Rice (a conniving wet noodle) to warmonger Donald Rumsfeld and even political harpie Karl Rove. I thoroughly enjoyed this, despite my personal dislike of the man called George, Geo, Bush, Bushie, Junior and Dubya. One complaint: The use of buffoonish music in the background bothered me in many places, such as the theme from Robin Hood and the Yellow Rose of Texas. A bit over the top, IMHO.
