(4 stars) - Reveals a lot about Pres Reagan which I didn't know
Great work. Lots of interviews with immediate family members of Reagan and his close aides from the time he launched his political life in mid 60s all the way to mid 1990s when he was diagnosed with Alzheimer. Though his two kids, Patti Davis and Ron, are complete moonbats for obvious reasons, they have a lot to say about their great dad. I liked this DVD and it is highly recommended.

(5 stars) - What made Reagan tick
This documentary attempts to explain what made Reagan tick as a person. It addresses his early life as the son of an alcoholic and the love his mother devoted to shaping him as a person. This documentary also addresses the fact that Reagan saved over 70 lives while working as as a lifeguard in his youth and how this may have shaped his calling as a real public servant.

Ronald Reagan's relationship with Nancy is also a central theme. She seemed to absolutely adore him, as he seemed to adore her.

According to this documentary, Reagan had a belief in himself that propelled him to complete many important tasks. Included in these tasks were confronting the Soviets and adjusting taxation so that people were not penalized for being successful.

(4 stars) - Contrary to "moviemonger's" review:
This is a well done, though brief look into the life of a great man and the greatest President of the last half of the 20th century. The only fault is just the brevity given to the topic of President Reagan's great accomplishments. This is a thoroughly enjoyable documentary, and filled with information and great words. A treasure for true history buffs.

(1 stars) - Remarkable Pablum
When I rated this turkey one star, I was just kidding.

Zip, zero, nyet stars assigned to this glossy, yet steaming, pile of manure. Revisionist History Is Us would've been a better title.
This country's losing its guts.
