                                • I think the film is good as entertainment but it doesn't educate. Why didn't the movie producer tell the truth? I know that to make the movie interesting he used the computer techniques and he made it look as if it was real. If a person is intelligent, wont be distinguished what is real or not? I just consider it fictitious. It can never be a true story. That is my opinion.
