I saw this movie recently with an open mind and with no idea of Mormon history. After seeing the movie I then read as much as I could find on the actual event before writing this comment.
This movie is a hollywoodised version of events that did happen, no one is disputing that it happened, the comments on this site who have slammed the movie and given it 1 star seem to be those who are either Mormons or Mormon sympathisers who don't like the truth being openly told.
Without the hollywoodised love story and the "too" clean travelers the movie seemed to follow accounts of what happened reasonably accurately in my eyes.
From what I have read about the event I think the makers were right in making it look like a cover up by the Mormons, we have to remember that religious leaders had great say in how things are done in societies of the time, and unfortunately still do today.
As has happened many times in history, a scapegoat is often used to cover up the misdeeds of those in higher authority.
See the movie with an open mind then do the research and make up your own mind about who should have been punished here.
I give this movie an 10 out of 10 to counter all the misguided 1s that have been given, but my true rating would be a 6.
