Actually, I probably should just have kept my long-winded big mouth shut. I love Clint Eastwood and hope the film does well. It pays to remember that anytime anything bad happens no matter how good a job you did someone most likely will be coming back and second guessing your actions later.

When I look back over my time working on a fire department for 25 years, a job where by definition we were responding to things that had gone wrong... my finest hours were often the ones that I ended up taking the most flak over later, and usually from some know-it-all idiot who didn't have a clue. That is the way that the world works, and maybe this movie will help remind people of that, regardless of how accurate the portrayal of federal investigators was. Most of them actually are jerks and they probably deserve criticism for other crap they pulled and got away with.
