But I will definitely go see it though, looks at least entertaining, a bit corny maybe but entertaining.

I don't think thats a spare air. Looks like I its a bottle from one of the rebreathers in the earlier shot. A hair more believeable then spare but only a hair. But by hollywood standards for truth its gospel. However after twntyfive years in the entertainment industry I have to say the only truth is that no one will pay to be entertained by the truth. its all about the fantasy of it. Even when I watch films about the workings backstage I laugh at how wrong it is.

Land of Enchantment -- not so great for cave diving, but mighty scenic!
When I was in graduate school one of my professors had grown up in McNairy County, Tennessee, and was arrested several times by Buford Pusser (underage drinking and such). I asked him if "Walking Tall" was very embellished. He said it was about 5% true, 95% embellished.
I'd tell you which parts of the movie weren't true, but I don't want anybody to be as crestfallen as I was.
