"The Apprentice" isn't the scorched-earth hit job Trump supporters have feared and others have hoped for, but rather a well-made character study that avoids a definitive political stance.
Director Ali Abbasi intended to craft a character study, distinct from political narratives, which left many surprised, anticipating a more critical take on the 45th president.
What Abbasi has delivered is hardly without merit. 'The Apprentice' is an origin story illustrating how a young real estate brat became Donald Trump, mentored by Roy Cohn.
Sebastian Stan's portrayal of Trump is compelling, showcasing the transformation from a raw young entrepreneur to a figure shaped by power dynamics and legal manipulation.
