How critical is the film of US decision-making regarding foreign policy measures?

Good Morning Vietnam seemed like it could have been a “based on a true story” movie. It doesn’t seem quite perfect, but in Vietnam there must have been conflict between officers of different rank within the army, and there must have been a few wise guys who never fit into the army mold of how a soldier should behave. Also, there was a large degree of censorship and manipulation of numbers and facts. Reports home to the US on what the death toll was for American and Vietnamese turned out to be inaccurate on a regular basis.
