Review of The Butler (2013) by Michael M — 08 Apr 2015
It's kind of like "Forrest Gump" if Forrest was black and the movie wasn't funny at all and instead was focused primarily on racial tensions and the entire movie was set in the White House.
I also have to question John Cusack as Nixon and Robin Williams as Eisenhower. Definitely enjoyed Hans Gruber as Reagan and Jane Fonda as Nancy but that was pretty much about it. Watching Forrest Whitaker and Oprah age on screen didn't really do anything for me.
