Need to be a Math Genius and Astrophysicist to find a planet on which this is a good movie.

ARE YOU KIDDING ME???
It's a damn shame that this incredible story did not get the movie it deserved. Instead of a deft handling of the tale, we get a ham-fisted scrubbed, sanitized and Disney-fied concoction that left me (and my two fellow viewers) mocking the horrendous script by the mid-way point.
And I know Pharrell Williams was a producer, but what a HORRIBLE mistake to include his music in the film. A jarring anachronism.
Another thing: I grew up in the South the same time this story happened. Things were not NEARLY as shiny and clean as presented in this film. And folks weren't as nice, either. We got through the entire film with NO ONE calling any of the characters the "n-word." Yeah... no. Not real.
People, PLEASE. This is NOT good movie making. Get a grip and stop rating this crap more than a 4 or 5. We deserve better cinema.
