A biopic on the life of George W Bush, W for the most part is very informative of the later years of Bush's presidency. I wouldn't call it a true biopic mainly because it wasn't on his whole career, you could tell they picked and choosed what they wanted to show. Because of that it brings to one of the biggest pullbacks of the movie and that was the exclusion of showing 9/11. That was probably one of the biggest things of his presidency and they didn't show what he did, his reaction, or how he handled it. Instead, it chose to focus on him planning to go to war with the middle east. While it's not bad to show that, it's just frustrating knowing that this movie could have been more. Overall it is a good movie on Bush and him living in his fathers shadow, along with how hard it is to be president, it just could have been better if they did his whole life instead of picking a choosing
