Obama was always far more popular in Europe than in the US, so the comment about American reviewers makes little sense. Besides, the film has gotten positive reviews from UK publications such as Guardian and Independent as well. Overall the response seems largely positive both among reviewers, people reacting on social media and those watching the trailer on YouTube, where it's about 90% positive so far.
As for 'Brexit', I don't really feel inclined to comment beyond saying that it's utterly baffling that the UK would even consider leaving a market that stands for such a large part of their annual exports, knowing that isolationism like this is rarely, historically speaking, a good idea. And when Obama candidly points out that the US would prioritize the EU when it comes to trade agreements (obviously, with so many countries, including Germany and France), that should spell out even more clearly that Britain should stay at the table where they have influence, rather than attempt to go it alone in a globalized world.

Well, it's only got 6.2 on IMDB, so it's not doing that well.
All the reviewers went ape over Skyfall and Spectre and I thought those were two of the worst Bond films of all time.
And I'll be voting out. The EU won't suddenly cancel trade deals, that's just the spin from the 'remain' camp. We don't need the EU's control over us.

Based on 88 votes. 26 of which are "1". I think it's safe to assume most of those votes are not legitimate (and yes, I also acknowledge the same in regards to the movie's 35 "10" ratings).
I find Oscar Bait infinitely more interesting than ticket bait
