The movie was great - don’t really want to get into all of that, but the theater was packed at capacity.

The thing that shocked me was I could not believe how many young people were also watching this movie.

There were more high school and college kids watching this movie then there were adults and they were all into this movie laughing at some of the scenes, clapping, etc.

I was just very surprised that there were so many young people watching this movie when there were other movies playing that were targeted more to their age groups

I was in my 20’s when Reagan was President. I remember feeling safe. He had this comforting demeanor about him.

No, but I did watch him end communism throughout the world.

Also, a lot of what happened back then is exactly what’s happening today and Regan and Trump are very similar in their views for America FIRST

Your experience is polar opposite of mine. I agree the movie was great, but I looked around and was nothing but silver heads in our theater. My wife and I were the youngest there by far.

Definitely a timely movie, and it touched on a lot of parallels regarding what’s going on now, except now the enemy is within our borders and “ruling class”.

Maybe it was because tonight is not a school night like a normal Sunday - I don’t know, but it was mostly all young people

Glad to hear. I saw a matinee so that’s likely a factor on my end.

Reagan won 49 states with that message. Look where we are now.

He probably thought Reagan was a 70s Heavy Metal band.

Saw it Friday night with my wife, daughter, and parents. We had bought our tickets ahead with the Grand / Santikos app, but my parents came with last minute and got theirs at the counter, got the last 2 tickets and had to sit way in the front.

Great movie. Remember living through Reagan’s awesome admin. Even though I was in high school and early college years at the time - I was a study of history (mostly military) as a teen so paid attention to the hostage crisis, and understood the historic events happening with tht conclusion of the Cold War and the fall of the Berlin Wall.


The info at the beginning on his early fight against communism as the president of the screen actors guild was all new to me, so it was really cool to learn about that.


Reagan was instrumental in forming / solidifying my conservative values.

I thought Dennis Quad did an excellent job and highly recommend the movie.

He reportedly had 4 to 6 immutables and a matter didn't fit, was dismissed as nonessential

Young dudes vote Trump. Hopefully they can start marrying off some of these young women and meeting a real man sets them straight.




The worst voting block for Trump is black and young women. And illegals and dead ppl
