The film is obviously about more than just one man. The message Bob stood for and lived has always been inspiring to me and obviously millions of others. The film to me is an affirmation of the messages of love , peace, unity, forgiveness; redemption.
I would give the film a nine or ten if It had not noticed some scenery/prop issues that did not jive let's say.
I personally would have liked even more grit and showing perhaps even more adult themes ( that they touched on , such as affairs) which would have been more of an HBO version let's say, but that would not have gotten to the mainstream market as much and might have taken away from the central themes of peace and love.
They did a great job overall balancing his marriage/family life with career life.
Amazing jobs done by the actors playing Rita and the young Bob also.
Overall inspiring.
