Let's get this out front at the start: Ron "Opie" Howard, Depp, and the rest of the bunch involved in this 'Movie' are die-hard Leftist Liberals totally in the tank for the Commucrat Party (A.K.A. the American Communist Party, and F.K.A. the Democrat Party), and the only purpose for making a piece of rubbish like this is to denigrate the character of Donald Trump, whom we now know to be our VERY likely 45th President of the United States. The fact that Trumps book, "The Art of the DEAL", is continually atop the Best-Seller Lists, only enrages these self-loathing, Anti-American Communist-sympathizing, totally-out-of-touch-with-Mainstream-America Marxist Limousine Liberals no end! These buffoons would never in a million years turn their gun sights on someone faaaaaar more in need of exposure and examination...hint: She only lies when her lips are moving, can't stand without two 'aides' propping her up, and has an unexplained 'body count' around her and her slimy former Rapist-In-Chief husband ready to exceed FORTY DEATHS! See? THERE'S a wealth of material for them to go at! Fat Chance, huh? See you at the Trump Inaugural!

I am utterly shocked that so many A-list actors played in this...movie.I watch movies to get away from current events - not to be politically influenced. Once I held reverence for many of these actors - No more. I do not support anyone in the entertainment industry who would actively impugn any one individual and call it comedy. This is a poor attempt to attack a current political candidate and the real laugh I got was when I realized how horrible the movie actually is. The acting, the production, The script. Its all horrible. I would not waste my time. Even though the movie is free on Netflix, the time you spend watching it will be a complete and total waste.

Donald Trump's The Art of the Deal: The Movie is a mediocre TV movie that has its ups and downs in terms of writing, despite a talented cast. Funny or Die certainly gathered an impressive creative team to parody the most controversial presidential candidate in American history. There are great cameos throughout, such as Patton Oswalt and Ron Howard as himself. The star of the show is Johnny Depp, taking a very interesting turn as Trump himself, he may not sound very much like him, but his mannerisms and dialogue is stellar, he brings the character to life in his own very unique way. It does get tiring after a while, twenty minutes it and the humour started to die down for me, it was very one note, fifty minutes was too much. The run time may have been a bit more bearable if they were not so inclined to make the movie look extremely low budget, purposely making the colour off putting, I got the joke but it took me out of the "plot" too much. While there are certainly funny moments, The Art of the Deal falls flat for me, if you enjoy making fun of Donald Trump you might as well check out Funny or Die as they take the joke way too far, other than that avoid it. A satirical adaptation of business tycoon Donald Trump's bestselling novel, as he teaches a young boy how to make it big in the industry. Best Performance: Johnny Depp

Mockery is the style of the times, and satire is just a nice way to say "hey, we're deeply prejudiced and more than willing to express it through exaggerated stereotypes." It takes extra effort to watch this painfully desperate attempt to commit character assassination in the name of politics. At least there was some character similarity - some. But that's just my opinion. I have the same opinion whether it's some snarky rich Hollywood type looking down their nose at the person in their cheap big box store clothes, or a bunch of bullies mocking someone they want to push around. Same kind of jokes, jabs and the glow of underlying enjoyment of the sense of superiority. Don't like Trump? You'll love it.
