The Reagans (2003)
Member Rating:  
After being pulled from CBS amid a flurry of controversy, The Reagans was finally aired on Showtime and went on to earn Golden Globe nominations for its stars, James Brolin and Judy Davis. Directed by Robert Allan Ackerman (Life With Judy Garland: Me and My Shadows) and based on a book by Carl Sferrazza Anthony, the film offers an intimate and some may say scathing look at the family behind one of the 20th century's most hotly debated presidencies. Also starring John Stamos and Zeljko Ivanek, the made-for-television biography is unrated. ~ Matthew Tobey, Rovi

I was truly disappointed when CBS chickened out of showing this movie. I don't have Showtime, so this was my first look. I thought this was a great movie. Granted, Nancy Reagan is portrayed in a less than positive light; however, James Brolin and Judy Davis are at their best.

I never liked Ronald Reagan but after watching this movie I do like him, and I have a lot of respect for Nancy. Without her, he would have been lost in the white house, he was surrounded by vipers. The American public would benefit from watching this movie on prime time. I think that it is a tribute to both of them. There is no perfect family, but this one truly loved one another. Mr.Reagan was sincere in trying to run the country, he just really was kept in the dark about what was happening around him. Nancy was truly there watching his back. Thumbs up!!

Dianne P.

Portrays Nancy Reagan as a manipulative social climber, obsessed with keeping up "appearances" and micro-managing her husband's life decisions in a way that yeilded the most money and status to the family. Negative perspective largely disregards positive aspects of either one of the Reagans. Presentation is rather slow-moving and unconvincing.
