When I watch a movie based on true events, I expect some degree of artistic licence. After all, it's not a documentary. But this movie does so in a way that makes it hard to believe the story.
Some scenes are downright ridiculous, more suitable for a comedy than a drama. This, in turn, affects the "proper drama" scenes, because it's hard to take characters seriously, taking away much of what makes drama powerful and compelling.
Do you want to know what the worst part is? I don't think this story even needed that, as the real story is interesting enough.
All in all it's entertaining and kinda funny (?). I won't ever see it again, and I wouldn't recommend it if you are expecting something serious.
