It's got great actors and the benefit of a true story with riveting characteristics, but somehow it falls flat on its face and is no good.
Feels like it reaches WAY too hard, and while Harris and Simmons are okay, Daniels' portrayal of Reagan is ham-handed, self-righteous, and too "actorly," which is to say: You can see Daniels acting, and that's not a good thing, no.
