It is unfortunate that they made some of them wear airplane hats. I find that insulting.

Hidden Figures is a movie worth watching if you're interested in this kind of thing. Actually it's just a movie worth watching.

Not if you're into the actual history. It's as accurate as any other "based on a true story" movie.

Still, it's nice to have a good bit of accuracy. I don't know how accurate it was, haven't seen it, just putting forth that view.

If you want a more accurate picture, read the book, but the movie is good even if dipshit mcfartface up there doesn't think so.

To be fair, he didn't say the movie was bad, just that it might not be what one would expect if they're hoping for lots of accuracy.
