Audience Member An iconic film that does ample justice to a mathematical catastrophe, celebrating the brave people, both in the shuttle and Mission Control, who solved a sidereal nightmare and saved the lives of three astronauts. A 90’s classic! Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/22/25 Full Review David M Ron Howard is not a director I would go to expecting flair or challenging ways of telling a story, but here he's the ideal man to tell this story, of which we all know the ending. That he does so with clarity and efficiency, making it accessible enough for all of us who don't understand much science and injecting genuine tension, awe, and joy is one of his great achievements as a director. Tom Hanks, and the rest of the cast, are excellent; but what was especially refreshing on this revisit is that it almost entirely eschews a flag-waving American pride with which I associated this film in my false memories. This is a story about people being part of something extraordinary, not an exercise in national myth-making. It's a moving, exciting, well-told story that's as accessible as it is enjoyable.

Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/18/25 Full Review Max W Apollo 13 maintains a steady and well-crafted narrative, showcasing a highly polished execution. It serves as a precise cinematic recreation of that unfortunate yet fortunate space disaster. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/12/25 Full Review Audience Member Such a good movie to this day. The elements of space are incredible, Tom Hanks is incredible, and all the dialogue and details were really good. The great storytelling from both Earth and space make the movie just so smooth with how it runs and is just a great movie. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/09/25 Full Review Audience Member Probably in my top 25 best movies ever made. Just everything about it is good. Historical accuracy, pacing, acting, production value and special effects. It’s awesome and makes the most out of a story that doesn’t exactly have the sweetest ending.
