Trivia
All of the live video footage of the siege and the studio presentation and interviews is the original footage as broadcast by ABC during the crisis, taken directly from their archive.

Goofs
The crew are seen drinking from beer cans with retained ring pulls. This type of opening mechanism wasn't widely in use until the original patents expired in 1975, three years after the events depicted in the movie.

Quotes
Marvin Bader: Are your parents still around?
Marianne Gebhardt: Yes.
Marvin Bader: Let me guess - they didn't know either, right?
Marianne Gebhardt: [pause] I'm not them.

Solid telling of a tragedy though the lens of unlikely broadcasters

Performances all believable, comedy in the right places, and a pacing and runtime that doesn't leave you peeking towards the exit before the credits.

For someone who didn't really know the story, the details of what went down truly interested me. They did a solid job of not telegraphing the plot points.

Some may find the lack of change of scenery tiring, but I think it worked in this case. I think they wanted you to feel like the control room is your world, and to feel as they did on this eventful day.

They touched on the political and emotional elements nicely. Making you think, without preaching.

Mixing in footage from the actual event, including broadcast footage as well, definitely draws you more into the experience. A nice touch.

While it's not a movie I really intend on rewatching over and over, it is a very well done piece that I'd recommend to friends who enjoy movies like this.
