Quaid, whose acting career spans over four decades with more than 80 films to his credit, portrays the 40th President of the United States in a film that has garnered a 98% audience approval rating, despite a mere 19% critics rating on Rotten Tomatoes.
According to Gateway Pundit, the film, which outperformed box-office expectations in its opening weekend, has been met with applause from audiences, while critics have been less enthusiastic. This dichotomy between public and critical reception is hardly surprising, given the film's focus on Reagan's staunch opposition to communism, a stance that resonates with many conservative viewers.

Newsweek reported that the film, loosely based on Paul Kengor's 2006 book, "The Crusader: Ronald Reagan and the Fall of Communism," traces Reagan's journey from his early years, through his acting career, and his battle against communists in Hollywood, culminating in his presidency. The narrative is largely delivered by actor Jon Voight, who plays a fictional retired KGB officer attributing the Soviet Union’s collapse to Reagan.
