9. Here are some real reviews

and they aren't much better than the satire.

The recent Amazon-produced documentary about Melania Trump, simply titled Melania, has generated significant discussion and a generally negative reception on Reddit, particularly in subreddits focused on movies and entertainment.

Summary of Reddit Reviews

Reddit users generally view the film as a controversial and uninteresting "vanity project". Specific recurring themes in the discussions include:
Skepticism and Disinterest: Many users expressed a lack of interest in the subject matter, with one user noting they had "never once asked myself, 'I wonder what it's like to be Melania?'". Others commented that the documentary was something "people are asking for less than".

Perceived Bias/Vanity: The documentary is widely perceived as a one-sided hagiography rather than an objective film, especially given reports that Amazon paid $40 million for the rights and its release coincides with the former First Lady potentially moving back to the White House.

Criticism of the Director: The involvement of director Brett Ratner, who has faced multiple accusations of sexual misconduct, was a major point of contention and "serious red flags" for many users.

Tone and "Camp": Commenters who viewed the trailer described the film as potentially "camp" due to its perceived self-serious tone that fails to land. Snippets from discussions referenced "bad accents" and comments on her "empty, soulless stare".

Overall, the sentiment on Reddit is overwhelmingly critical of the documentary's premise, production, and timing, with many users stating they would actively avoid watching it.
