Failure is NOT an option

Date of Review:  Jun 8, 2000
Review: Apollo 13 is a simply superb movie that masterfully tells the all-too-true story of three men and their desperate struggle to get back home from thousands of miles away - in space.

The movie starts with Jim Lovell (played by Tom Hanks) and...

Apollo 13

Date of Review:  Apr 28, 2009
The Bottom Line: A great reenactment of a potentially doomed mission that somehow came out all right. Well worth watching.
Review: Apollo 13 (1995)

Apollo 13 is the moon shot that wasn't.  When Ron Howard decided to make the movie I had no idea why somebody would want to recognize the historical value of the Apollo space program. But after watching the movie a number...

Resisting urge to say "Houston, we have a problem"...

Date of Review:  Dec 9, 2006
The Bottom Line: Apollo 13 is an excellent film that avoids all the potential pitfalls of this kind of movie.
Review: Ever since I was a small child I've been fascinated by space and space travel, but somehow I'd managed not to see Apollo 13 until today. Various concerns about how this film about the ill-fated mission would be handled were in the back of my mind,...

Apollo 13

Date of Review:  Mar 8, 2000
Review: Apollo 13 is an excellent movie. Tom Hanks plays a great roll in it. I really like Tom Hanks and think that he is a good and funny actor. I like action movies that have to do with space and people having to get out of a situation where they are cut...
