Shush said that they were able to do this by having "a few people sign nondisclosures, but more often than not we just begged people not to say anything." The film features an original song from Kenny Loggins, entitled "The Fine art of the Deal", written specifically for the film.[i]
Release and reception [edit]
Donald Trump'southward The Art of the Deal: The Movie was released for free on Funny or Die.com on February 10, 2016, in order to coincide with Trump's real-life victory at the 2016 New Hampshire primaries.[1] The release of the moving picture was then secretive, most news outlets did not know it existed until the day it was released, with Salon calling the film a "surprise biopic" and saying it was released "without warning".[four] The film was taken down from the Funny or Die website on Feb 21, 2016, for undisclosed reasons, with Funny or Die promising to bring it dorsum soon.[5] The flick became available for streaming on Netflix starting on Baronial 1, 2016.[6]
Donald Trump's The Art of the Bargain: The Movie has received positive reviews and Depp'south functioning was praised. On Metacritic, the film has a score of 75 out of 100, based on 4 critics, indicating "mostly favorable reviews".[7] In a review entitled "Who knew Donald Trump was the comeback role Johnny Depp needed?", Erik Adams of The A.V. Gild praised Depp'southward performance in particular, saying "the thespian's vocal inflections and mannerisms create an incredible facsimile of Trump—albeit one that's rooted in the twitchy kookiness of Helm Jack Sparrow or Raoul Duke. For once in his mail service-Pirates of the Caribbean career, an entire production tin can actually go on upwardly with Depp's whims and tap into his wavelength, striking a tone that's as big and brassy as the character he's playing."[eight] He also compared the film to Garth Marenghi's Darkplace in its presentation of Trump as a megalomaniac writing, directing and presenting his own moving-picture show.
Brian Lowry of Variety was less enthusiastic, saying "Once you get past the sheer gall of Funny or Die putting together a 50-minute send-upwardly of Donald Trump—starring a nigh-unrecognizable Johnny Depp, no less—the kick of Donald Trump'south The Art of the Deal: The Picture show begins to rapidly yield diminishing returns. For those shaking their heads in disbelief over the mogul/reality TV star'south new-found career in politics, nevertheless, simply soaking in Depp'south mannerisms and dead-on impersonation, along with the various celebrity cameos, will probably be bounty enough."[nine]
Writing for Entertainment Weekly, critic Chris Nashawaty said "Before this morning time, I would have said that there was nothing funny about Donald Trump's run for the presidency. Then, this morning, something arrived like a Christmas nowadays that came 10 months early: Donald Trump's The Fine art of the Deal: The Moving-picture show. It's utterly demented, slightly terrifying, and near of all hilarious. It's also one of the giddiest and most stinging political satires since Thomas Nast took on Tammany Hall."[ten] Volition Mann of Bad Shakespeare said "we might one day look back at Donald Trump's The Art of the Deal: The Movie as not simply a flick that predicted a Trump presidency (seriously!), but as a hilarious act of political satire, unique in its identify in comedic and American history."[11]
