It was better than I expected and better than most family films I’ve seen lately

Critics didn't like it because it wasn't historically accurate.

What's the real story here? The guy didn't accept the people he was hiring?

It’s documented that Barnum exploited people that performed in his shows?

Rotten Tomatoes suggests it's because the movie tiptoes around Barnum's
