Not bad if those are the "TOP FIVE" inaccuracies. It's number one at the box office this weekend, cost $30 million to make and is expected to do better than $25 million this weekend.
I find it funny when the hollywood left makes a movie on politics, they have to fill it with inaccuracies. The left doesn't need a Joseph Goebbels, they have Hollywood.

The first three aren't really inaccurate, and in any case, it's not a documentary. It's easy to understand why four and five were dramatized to increase viewer interest.
I don't have a problem with movies not being accurate in presentation. What I have a problem with is stupid people who believe what they see in movies and who think actors' personal lives and opinions bear repeating and emulating.
I realize it's hard to believe but a lot of people actually think reality shows and even documentaries are real. I never would have guessed how dumbed down America could become.
Contrary to my normal behavior, I followed the link to Breitbart.
At a minimum, their # 1, 2, and 3 are lies.
Just to point out the issue about Reagan, he supported the South African apartheid system, he supported tax breaks for racist institutions like Bob Jones "University", he kicked off his campaign with a paean to states' rights (code word for racism and segregation) in Philadelphia, Mississippi, where civil rights workers were murdered, and he constantly made racist attacks on public assistance recipients.
yet those so called "racist" republicans got the civil rights act passed.
Oh thats right, turn a blind eye to the KKK member of your party.

I don't care about the Democratic Party's position at the time. Republicans showed no more courage and willingness to do the right thing at the time outside of casting votes.
Their supposed to be but when they set a political tone, especially when it starts to get close to election time,
it's pretty obvious that there is an agenda.

Close to election time? The last Presidential election was less than year ago and the next is in 3 years.

Yea, you got that right. They seem to forget that they are "the rich". I wonder since they make out being rich as being the bad guy then why is it that Hollywood doesn't give up their money? Why don't they just act for movies for free.
what's left out is the voting record on the historic Civil Rights Act. Turns out "80 percent of the “no” votes in the Senate came from Democrats, including the late Robert Byrd (W.Va.) and Albert Gore (Tenn.), father of the vice president," so Republicans teamed up with President Johnson to pass the legislation.
LOLOL
GORE -> That southern boy is a HYPOCRITE
