Factoids: (Moviemistakes, Wiki)
1. The film earned $4.6 million in 441 theatres and achieved the second highest opening weekend for a documentary, and the third-highest grossing documentary in USA.
Comments: B+ (7.22, Theater) It feels toned down to reach to all, and some parts a little over-the-top dramatic, but overall a great piece.
