In the film, director Oliver Stone exposed the negative life and negative image of Bush Jr., presenting the audience with a "humanized" Bush Jr who is reckless, unreliable, impatient and easy to interpersonal. As long as those who are familiar with Bush Jr. feel good enough after watching this film, Oliver Stone has raised the "sarcasm" to another level besides "analysis", which can be said to be "three points into the woods". It is worth mentioning that Josh James Brolin's appearance is quite accurate. Although the makeup is not completely similar, Josh James Brolin's acting skills are still remarkable when it comes to digging out the character's personality

The film's release at the juncture of the 2009 US general election definitely attracted the attention of fans, political figures, academia and other parties. Those who care about politics, those who study Bush, and those who like movies can find what they want to watch in the film

"W." does not use the lens to frame the so-called truth for the audience. There is no overtones from the declarant in the film. Instead, it is a recorded description. The film examines all aspects of Bush Jr. from an internal perspective. In addition to the president, there is also his role in life as a son and husband. The conflicting and sympathetic relationship between Bush and his son can be called the main line of contradiction throughout the film. Bush spent his entire life "competing" with his father, and at the same time yearned for his father's approval. From his personal point of view, "victory" Bush Sr. is even more important than governing the country. From a political point of view, "victory" father means better political achievements. As a result, the family confrontation between the father and son mobilized the entire country and the world to participate. The relationship with his wife Laura reflects the civilian side of Bush Jr. From the acquaintance and love in the early years, to the mutual support when running for governor in the youth, to entering the White House as president and first lady, the true feelings between the two and ordinary couples also constitute a touch of warmth in the film
