The Apprentice is a good movie, albeit a difficult one to watch, with stellar performances elevating the proceedings.

The Apprentice is a hodgepodge of scenes from the life of Trump and Cohn with little emotional fluidity.

The performances are stellar, the pacing both restrained and engaging, the realization of Cohn and Trump’s world is top notch, and the dynamic between the two is as captivating as any. For those able to take the film on its own terms, to be in equal parts fascinated and repelled by the behaviors of those captured therein, The Apprentice stands as a masterclass in observing this compelling, consequential mentor/protégé relationship—one that continues to shape global headlines.
