Rating: 8/10“The Apprentice” pulls the viewer into another time entirely, with all of the drugs, sex and synth music of the 1980s New York elite. Released on Oct. 11, the biographical drama tells the story of a young Donald Trump and his transformation into a ruthless billionaire real estate tycoon. The movie almost entirely avoids Trump’s political career, only making a few tongue-in-cheek jokes about him running for president in the future.

The film picks up two years after the events of the first Joker movie, which saw Arthur Fleck (Phoenix) fully adopt the moniker of Joker after being ignored by the society he lives in, leading him to commit several murders.
