Reviews
Jane Doe, Movie Critic for The Hollywood Review:
“One of America’s most adored presidents is brilliantly portrayed in Sean McNamara’s ‘Reagan.'” From his early years to his tenure in the Oval Office, Dennis Quaid captures the essence of Ronald Reagan in a performance that is both powerful and heartfelt. The film adds an intriguing twist to the well-known story through the unique perspective of a former KGB agent.”
John Smith, Film Analyst for Cinema Today:
“‘Reagan’ is a biography storytelling masterwork. The film’s strength is its well-rounded cast, which includes two particularly noteworthy performances by Jon Voight as Viktor Petrovich and Penelope Ann Miller as Nancy Reagan. Reagan’s hometown’s dusty streets give way to Hollywood’s glitzy sets and the famous White House in a stunning cinematography.”
Emily Johnson, Reviewer for Screen Magazine:
“Reagan excels with its profound emotional depth and well-developed character development, despite a few pacing problems. Reagan is compellingly portrayed by Dennis Quaid, and the movie does a great job of highlighting the difficulties and victories of his journey. Both lovers of drama and history should not miss it.”
