Number 10 Gangs of New York To defeat my enemy, I extinguish his life and consume him as I consume these flames.

This Martin Scorsese epic was based on Herbert Asbury's The Gangs of New York on Informal History of the Underworld, which was published in 1927.

1 of the major departures from reality is the depiction of Bill.

The butcher bill is based on the historic William Poole, but pool was murdered a decade before the draft riots began and reportedly never killed anyone.

Now you tasted my mutton.

How do you like it, huh?

In fact, the level of violence in general was often criticized as being a pure Hollywood fabrication.

The massive gang fight depicted at the beginning of the film is also entirely fictional, but gang battles did occur on occasion.

There were also no Navy ships to quell the riots, and the amount of Chinese Americans in New York was greatly exaggerated.

Number nine Cool Runnings This feel good comedy concerns the debut of the Jamaican bobsledding team at the 1988 Calgary Winter Olympics.

Suffice it to say it has been very Disney fied.

The biggest fabrication is the bobsled competition itself.

Oh, it's it's good.

For one thing, the Jamaican athletes were not treated as outsiders, and the American team even helped them out by lending them a sled.

Secondly, the team had absolutely no shot at winning a medal, despite what the movie would have you believe now.

E going to be able to hold the crash was also not the result of a mechanical failure but shoddy and inexperienced driving and that feel good crossing of the finish line to raucous applause.

Yeah, it was more of a defeated limp, with sporadic and tepid encouragement, a disappointment for them.

I'm sure that they're not able to complete the event, but maybe they should just be thankful that they're able to walk away.

Number eight.

The Imitation game In this film, Benedict Cumberbatch portrays Alan Turing, a genius who revolutionized the concept of theoretical computer science and helped decrypt German messages during World War Two.

Even before the movie was released, it received controversy for downplaying Turing's homosexuality and casting bombshell Keira Knightley as the so called plain Joan Clarke.

I am a candidate for what position didn't say precise, and while cheering did have eccentricities, he wasn't nearly a socially awkward is portrayed in the film.

Turing, supposed suicide is also extensively debated to this day, with some experts even claiming that his death was purely accidental.

And that's not even touching on all the enigma inaccuracies.

Like portraying Turing is a one man forced when he was actually part of a massive collaboration.

That's it exactly.

Number seven Rudy.

Despite being an exceptional and inspiring sports movie, Rudy is greatly exaggerated.

The story concerns Daniel Rudy Rudiger, a man who desperately wanted to play for the Notre Dame Fighting Irish despite being just 56 and £165 a massive deviation concerns coach Dan Devine and the famous Jersey protest scene.

Divine was greatly vilified for the movie, but by all accounts he was actually very encouraging.

That whole laying down the jerseys thing also never happened, and Divine told the Houston Chronicle that it and his role in it were unforgivable.

Maruti coach.

The crowd also never chanted Rudy's name before he was placed in the game.

That said he did actually record a sack and was carried off the field.

So that's pretty cool.

Number six.

A Beautiful Mind This Russell Crowe led film was adapted from a Pulitzer nominated biography of famed mathematician John Nash Jr Nash suffered greatly from mental illness and was eventually treated for paranoid schizophrenia.

And while the movie stayed true to the spirit of Nash's story, it ignored a few key details.

I need a map.

In 1953 Nash fathered an illegitimate child with Eleanor Steer and went on to ignore both Eleanor and their son.

When they finally met in person, an ill Nash thought his son would play Quote an essential and significant role in his personal, long awaited gay liberation.

You're exceptionally.

I bet you're very popular with girls.

He also didn't have a good relationship with Alicia Lard, and he was not asked to give a Nobel Prize acceptance speech owing to his mental instability.

My quest has taken me through the physical metaphysical, the delusional on back number five Argo.

There's no denying that Argo is an exceptionally made movie.

It's seven.

Oscar nominations can attest to that, but it's nowhere near historically accurate.

The film was accused of whitewashing and the casting of Tony Mendez and Coral Eaec.

It was also fiercely criticized for exaggerating the CIA's role in the caper, with ex President Jimmy Carter even admitting that quote 90% of the contributions to the ideas and the consummation of the plan was Canadian.

Britain and New Zealand were also cheesed with their depictions as they never turned away the American refugees.

Brits turned them away.

Kiwis turned them away.

Canadians stuck them in.

In fact, they helped them.

And finally, the tense climactic moment where it seems like the group will be caught.

Yeah, none of that happened either.

Studio six productions.

They got away without any problems.

They're clear.

Yeah.

Number four, Pearl Harbor.

Where to even start with Pearl Harbor.

This is a Michael Bay film through and through, relying on action and bombast and throwing all semblance of historical accuracy of the window.

What way targets good job Raiders, but let's get specific.

The Japanese never intentionally targeted the hospital.

The depiction of the Doolittle raid is near total fabrication.

President Roosevelt wasn't notified of the attack by a man dramatically running into the room.

How bad?

It's still not over.

Sir Chester Nimitz and George Marshall actually advocated a retaliatory strike on Japan.

And then we veer into the absolute ridiculous.

Roosevelt obviously never stood from his wheelchair in a dramatic show of Will, and the movie stole Admiral Yamamoto's iconic sleeping giant line from Tora Tora Tora.

By all accounts, he never actually said that.

No Number 3 300 spot.

The Battle of Thermopylae makes for a great story, but 300 is pure comic book, Which makes sense, considering it was adapted from a comic book.

Spartans were not walking around shirtless and showing off their impeccable washboard abs.

They were most certainly armored.

There also weren't 300 Spartan men at the battle.

It was more like 6000 Greek soldiers, comprising numerous city states.

The movie was also criticized for its idealize depiction of Sparta and for whittling down a complex situation into a good guys versus bad guys.

Morality tale.

Effie lt's was also a normal Molly in not a grotesque, Spartan, outcast father.

You won't run.

That said, the movie clearly isn't taking itself very seriously.

So we suppose we confer.

Give it Spartans ready your breakfast and eat hearty for tonight.

Way Number two.

The greatest showman.

It may have been made before the acquisition, but this Fox film already felt Disney fied.

The greatest showman concerns legendary huckster P.

T.

Barnum and his infamous American museum.

This is definitely a feel good story in which Barnum is portrayed is a flawed but well meaning businessman, and his attraction sing empowering songs about nobility and being different.

In reality, Barnum was more exploitative than tolerant, using the so called freaks as pure showbiz for his own fame and profit.

You know people are gonna like it if you put us on stage.

I'm counting on it.

He also exploited egregious racial stereotypes, like promoting the frail Joyce Hef as George Washington's 161 year old mammy.

When she passed away, Barnum charged, 1500 New Yorkers, 50 cents each toe watch her public autopsy.

Barnum certainly deserves a movie.

But the greatest showman ain't it?

May be you are fraud.

Maybe it was just about making a buck, but you gave us a real family before we unveil our number one pick.

Here are some honorable mentions.

Catch me if you can.

Frank conned people because he wanted Thio not to save his family.

Getting it all back a lthough jewelry, all the furs, everything, that everything they took from us.

I'm gonna get it back.

Remember the Titans?

The Titans absolutely dominated, and none of the schools they faced were all white.

What you did with those boys with the right man for the job.

Coach your Hall of Fame in my book.

Thank you 5.

71 Story received heaps of criticism for being a load of fictional bologna thing.

Theo Sound of music.

That iconic trek through the Swiss Alps never happened.

They got a train.

Good morning, Vietnam.

Very little of the film is based in reality and Cronauer was never kicked out of Vietnam.

Cronauer I'm sorry as hell about this thing.

Goddammit!

I like you, son.

E like what you do most of all.

I like what you've done for men.

The fax fax She could give the army a black eye.

Number one Braveheart Mel Gibson's classic war film is certainly epic, but it has very little basis in historic reality.

The portrayals of numerous characters including Wallace, Isabella, Robert the Bruce and Prince Edward are all fabricated for story purposes.

For example, Isabella was just three years old during the Battle of Falkirk.

I have come to beg for the life of William Wallace.

You're quite take another three numerous battles and military campaigns, air portrayed inaccurately.

The occupation of Scotland wasn't occurring throughout Williams life.

It only happened one year before his rebellion for one chance, just one chance to come back here until our enemies that they may take our lives.

But they'll never take.

Oh, Freedom theme movie is filled with anachronisms like the use of belted.

Platt's Longshanks never invoked use prima noctis as that didn't actually exist.

First night, when any common girl inhabiting their lands is married, our nobles shall have sexual rights to her other night of her way.

All told, Braveheart is far more Hollywood fiction than history.

At least Mel Gibson admits as much in the DVD commentary.

Do you agree with our picks?
