Very engaging film. By the time you get to the mandatory Hollywood car chase, you do guess you're being shown non sense, so i asked chatgpt how accurate the movie is, which it doesn't know, and had to resort to using good old google. The car chase is false. But pretty much everything else is true, apparently. The translator was indeed KGB (even know Henk knew from the outset). The shenanigans of three bidders being present in the building is true. The inventor moving to the US is true, and the friendship building in Moscow is true.
There's no indication that the bribing of the official was true, then again Maxwell was a crook so putting my crook hat on, it makes sense.
All in all, they made a legal battle really engaging, the movie was much better than i anticipated. The car chase and drama around the airport at the end is fictional, but doesn't spoil the movie.
