It was a fun movie, for sure -- but be warned that it received quite a backlash from many of the people involved in the story. It presents itself as a documentary, but it reshapes a lot of the facts to create more drama than there probably was. As documentaries go, it wasn't very true to it material. Still, a fun time.
If you're interested in the facts behind the story, I can probably dig up some of the stuff I found a while back when I saw the movie.
Oh, and by the way: some dude just recently broke the record. It was just reported, I think, last week.
