Outstanding
I'm old. I've seen a few movies (all types) This one is IMHO, the best story and best movie I've ever seen. There's a lot of garbage out there calling itself "entertainment" and is just a copy of a theme or a sequel to a story or something that's entirely predictable because the plot is old. Not this one. I'll remember this movie.
The movie is all that much more for the fact that it is based on facts. There is added value for me when a story is based on facts without a lot of CGI or embellishments. Although there must be some editorializing, this story seems to strike an authenticiticity and the characters are portrayed clearly and honestly. A credit to the actors and directors as well as the writers. For a frame of refererence I rated "Shawshank" a 9 and it was my favourite until now.
