How they wrecked a good movie..

Rating: 7/10 (29 May 2001)

Are you familiar with the term 'addition by subtraction' ? Well that saying is the ultimate definition of this movie. Why the producers of this film allowed it to be ruined with an absolutely pitiful, and absurd love story puzzles me. There was more "Hollywood" in this movie than even Hollywood should tolerate. The factual events that occurred were depicted well, with amazing authenticity and reality, and would have been more than enough to make this movie work. However, each time the movie strayed form the actual event, the production suffered miserably. If you can get past the totally un-believable Hollywood mish-mosh this film is not too bad. But, it could have been so much better. Please keep in mind it is over 3 hours long... hey somebody bring back the intermission !
