Nice film, awful documentary

I think so many here are rating the film based on accuracy as opposed to whether or not it was a good cinematic experience. If the film were called something else, and you didn't spend the entire time comparing it to some encyclopedia (or Wikipedia for a lot of you), would you have enjoyed it? Probably, because it was interesting, suspenseful, exciting, moving, and well acted.Remember it is not supposed to be a documentary. If it were, then yes, rate it based on accuracy. Even then, many aspects of her life were included in the movie. I deduct 1 star for inaccuracy, and the other two because it isn't a perfect film.How does a movie like Avengers filler with completely made-up, unrealistic, green giants and floating hammers rate 8/9? Because you're rating the movie, not the accuracy. Then you watch Harriet, and suddenly you're a historian and a film critic. I dare you to make your own film, and make it better.Watch it, enjoy it, learn a little bit, appreciate a lot. 7/10.

I'm curious why people say this is entirely fictional?

I won't say this is completely steeped in reality. But it's not entirely fictional like some seem to claim. I think the acting was very good. A solid B film in my opinion, and the film was definitely memorable too. You also need to recognize that outside of a paragraph in most K-12 history books, the average person knows next to nothing about Harriet Tubman. Adding some pizzazz to her life to make a film more intriguing and exciting is hardly new or surprising. This is not a documentary. I'd like some people to give specifics about what is so incredibly fictional. I only saw one review of the many I quickly read that gave an example. Plus, historians consulted on the film that then were interviewed and discussed reality versus fiction in many articles. One example is given below. I'd say, make your OWN opinion on this one.
