This sort of slipped in under my radar and it might have done the same for you.
Ronald Reagan is considered by many as one of our best Presidents and this biopic looks to do a fairly good job of portraying the man who played a major role shaping our world today.
I'm not certain when, which showing I'm going to at the Barkley theaters, but the extra warm weather gives added incentive to an afternoon in AC, catching what looks to be an enjoyable and informative movie.
Some links to the trailer and reviews, etc. Note that while the critics aren't rating this well, to be expected by their predictable political leanings, the audience reviews are in the 4-5 star range mostly.

Synopsis
From dusty small-town roots, to the glitter of Hollywood, and then on to commanding the world stage, REAGAN is a cinematic journey of overcoming the odds. Told through the voice of Viktor Petrovich, a former KGB agent whose life becomes inextricably linked with Ronald Reagan's when Reagan first caught the Soviets' attention as an actor in Hollywood, this film offers a perspective as unique as it is captivating. Dennis Quaid brings to life a story that transcends the boundaries of a traditional biopic, offering a profound exploration of the enduring impact of the power of one man who overcame the odds, sustained by the love of a woman who supported him in his journey.

Given it's from the LA Times, predictable Leftist twist, but worth a read to see what sensitive issues the move touchs from the other side of the political divide.
Review: A worshipful biopic of the 40th president, 'Reagan' is historical hooey — and a slog too
Anyway, I've most often enjoyed the films the critics don't, but then don't have their slanted view of reality.
So, submitted for your consideration and I'd encourage share this opportunity with you friends and contacts list. It appears to have a short timeline/limited engagement at the theaters.

I'll likely go tomorrow to see it. Back with a personal view afterwards.
