Melania, the Brett Ratner directed documentary about former model and current First Lady Melania Trump, is shaping up to be one of the biggest bombs in the history of the art form known as cinema.

I’m excited
It’ll be cool to see how she views herself
But I won’t be paying
We were at a theater and they showed a trailer for it, more than I needed to see - she’s heroic, beautiful, graceful and powerful in it. No one was sure if it was a real thing or if someone was really committed to doing a spoof. “It really looks like her” said one person. Everyone was looking at each other, confused, at the end of the trailer. I would have booed but I also thought it must be a carefully committed spoof of some sort.
