Weak
This is about the life of President Truman. Sinise does a great job, as always, but the movie never moves from the TV docudrama to a movie that manages to capture real people. The poor makeup does not help at all, for the actors' faces fail to express any emotions. All in all, a movie I cannot recommend.
