Movie: The life of George W. Bush - from an alcoholic, to a born again Christian, to an incompetent statesman who's manipulated by his advisers.

Televisions.com thinks:

Surprisingly human and entertaining biopic,
but which doesn't quite meet the quality
of "JFK" and "Nixon".

PICTURE QUALITY:
Crisp and movie-like; only the plasticity falls short of perfect. The source material was a 1080p/50 Hz master, making 24p playback impossible - very strange!

(8 out of 10 points)

SOUND QUALITY:
Essentially decent, but way too front-heavy.

(6 out of 10 points)

Sorely lacking - info pages, a trailer, photo galleries, and a few interviews (25:22).
