The film starts out with Walt as a youth being discouraged, being discouraged as an adult and ends with the creation of our second title character. This is "the Disney version" of his life sanitized for our protection. His interesting period as a WWI ambulance and truck driver was only mentioned. There was never any mention of infamous AWOL incident which spurred a famous urban legend I believed as a kid growing up. We see Disney (Thomas Ian Nicholas) as the world's worst business manager, forgetting to factor in things like "profit" when making a deal. The acting was not great and having Napoleon Dynamite (Jon Heder) play his brother Roy was a total miscast. It was like watching when he ran Pedro's campaign.
This is a family friendly film one that teaches perseverance no matter how wild your dreams are or who tells you no or who you have to borrow from, or how many bad checks you write, or how often you don't pay your rent...and the art of leaving town when you have a lot of bills.
Yes, I liked it, but it could have been far better.
