The movie should be called “Edison” since is all about Thomas A. Edison, it is so inaccurate that shows Westinghouse as being the father of Alternating current before he met Nikola Tesla, who invented the Alternating Current generator.
In the opening of each character calls Edison as “Great Inventor” and Tesla just as “Futurist” which is a disgrace of a title since Tesla was an inventor.
It shows the Chicago world fair lighted up by alternating current using Westinghouse systems but with Edison lightbulbs which is not true, it was lighted by arc lightning developed by Tesla.
It shows the war of currents between Edison and Westinghouse but in fact this war was between Edison and Tesla, the producers of the film should have made a little bit more research, a simple history channel documentary or even Wikipedia will help them with a more accurate scripts.
It’s heavy fictionalized and makes Edison looks like a kind, sweet family man that even didn’t want to invent anything that can kill but in this war killed thousands of animals in front of audiences to prove his point, funny how even in the scene where they killed the first horse somebody says, “it was a very humane and quick death”.
If I wanted to watch a fictional movie there are tons there but it was a disgrace to distort historical facts to make a cold businessman looks good.
