Dumb movie. Fight racism with more racism and falsehoods

Rating: 3/10 (2 January 2018)

Once again, in order to appeal to some public, Hollywood re-writes history. If this had been a fiction story and portrayed like that, maybe I would have given it 6 stars. But it is sold to us as a
biographical movie, using the names of REAL people, but the most significant facts never happened as shown. Racism is a key component when in fact although existing in society it was not particularly bad at NASA. Maybe Hollywood had to compensate for the lack of awards for black people in 2016? The movie was not believable when I saw it, and then when I researched it was quite easy to find that the most emblematic moments in the movie are in fact false. A considerable time is spent displaying the mathematician struggles going over and over to the "colored bathroom" and having to run for several miles.... (carrying multiple folders that unless she was going to stay in the bathroom for a week did not make any sense)..... but the complete thing is FALSE. Never happened. She actually went all the time to the white bathroom in the building she worked, and this was NEVER and issue for her or for anybody. This movie wants to appeal to minorities, especially black and women.... but chose to do so through false facts and exaggerated achievements for these women that never really happened or were much less significant. But there is enough people out there that wants to be told what they want to hear and believe on it (it must be true if Hollywood says so), that is the only explanation I can find why so many people seem to like this film. I did not.
