It's all true.
HBO film about a very 'truth as strange as fiction' bit of history.
No doubt details have been 'movied' but this is one astonishing true life adventure story.
Antonio Banderas is very good. Too 'pretty boy', but still good.
Eion Bailey plays the young director in charge of the production.
Alan Arkin is quietly wonderful as always.
Jim Broadbent is good as the studio head.
The movie is fun; big, elaborate, ambitious, filled with convincing detail and includes several well staged battle sequences sufficiently brutal and bloody.
Excellent and appropriate score.
