21..The Movie XVP

#1

No kidding. How many folks really thought that the "Titanic" movie was a
true retelling of the tragedy? Hollywood gets ahold of something like that,
follows the history rather loosely, and tries to turn it into something that
will sell tickets. Same with "21".

I found this interesting review and comments here (esp John Chang's re historical accuracy).
Not sure if it was posted here already, though:
