Judging by the down votes received, it hasn't gone down well.

Not only was it very boring, it was very pointless. These women were clearly presented as one of many and there was never any suggestion that they were particularly brilliant. There was slight interest with the "overcoming the prejudice" storyline, but it was clear in the movie itself that many black women did that at NASA. I already know black women can be really good mathematicians/engineers/scientists. I also know things were crappy in the south in the 60's. I don't need an entire movie to tell me that simply for the purpose of telling me that. There was no other plot besides that, and that's a very weak plot.
The best part was the woman that presented her case to be able to take college coursesotherwise it wasn't clear that they did anything unique or spectacular, and thus I don't know why the story was even told.
I realize I was supposed to be amazed by these women, but nothing about them was presented as amazing. -

I think that was the exact purpose of the movie, yet it wasn't clear at all why these women should be honored, because they weren't particularly brilliant, nor did they do anything particularly valuable (they were one of many - cogs in the machine).

This gay black guy didn't like it either. Black people created everything in this country according to him, and the movie depicts black women being exploited to support white people who are unable to accomplish anything on their own.
