Jimmy Kimmel Finally Watched ‘Melania’ and Says ‘It’s a Big Year for Vampires’ Between ‘Sinners’ and This ‘Dreadfully Dull’ Movie

Jimmy Kimmel mocked Melania Trump’s documentary for poor timing and quality as it debuted on Amazon Prime with just a 5% critic score, amid ongoing Iran conflict coverage.

  • Jimmy Kimmel opened his Tuesday monologue by criticizing Melania Trump, first lady, for promoting her $75 million documentary on Amazon Prime Video amid the Iran war.
  • Amid the Iran war, critics argued, social-media users slammed the timing after a Sunday X post promoting Melania's Prime launch. Kimmel called it tone‑deaf.
  • Kimmel highlighted footage showing Donald Trump calling Melania about his 2024 election win and mocked the documentary as mostly Melania trying on outfits, calling it 'dreadfully dull.'
  • Scrutiny over reviews intensified as the film holds a 5% critic score on Rotten Tomatoes, while the 99% audience score remains defended by Versant and verified by Popcornmeter.
  • Previously, Kimmel had derided the film as an Amazon-backed vanity project before seeing the Brett Ratner-directed movie and mocked its $7 million box-office debut as a non-musical record.
