"The most depressing experience I've ever had in the cinema"

Mark Kermode was hardly likely to give Melania a rave review, but his utter evisceration of the entire hubristic shitshow is an absolute treat.

It's "a bribe" by Amazon.

It's "a heist movie" showing a crime family breaking into the White House and trashing democracy.

It's "a piece of handsomely mounted cryptofascist propaganda".

And - perhaps most memorably of all - it's like "a documentary in which Eva Braun feels sad about war while Hitler invades Poland".

All of this delivered in bewilderment and anger by a man in a Gang Of Four T-shirt. Bravo.
