Hollywood alters the truth for bucks..

Rating: 3/10 (12 January 2002)

Based on a true story ?
I think not. A true story altered so it puts bums on seats in U.S. cinema's is far nearer the truth.
For those not aware this episode in history was completed by British forces and not U.S.
Poetic licence with books or scripts is common place in today's film industry but altering history to make money is in my view totally unacceptable.It derides the good names of the true heroes involved and upsets families who have to live with false legacies created by such film making. For that reason and that only (for it is a well made film) I would suggest you avoid this film.
