Never, ever get tired of this film

Rating: 10/10 (11 October 2013)

I saw this movie with a good friend. We were SO IMPRESSED that we left the movie saying 'vote for Opie'.
As many other people have said, we know the end (safety for the crew). But even when I get a copy of the film, I am still glued to the screen.
Many actors were SO good in this film, particularly Gary Senise, working so hard like the astronaut that he is, until he finally gets the 'right' sequence for the return of the guys in space.
Again, so many good performances by all of the actors. Loved when Ed Harris was so touched when the ship was in the ocean and his effort to keep his face straight and brush away any tears when he faces the rest of his crew.
Also, the funny part when Jim Lovell's Mom is glued to the television and Marilyn Lovell brings in some people do distract her. When she introduces them as Buzz Aldrin and Neil Armstrong, and the mother turns to them and asks them if they hope to be in the space program. What a hoot!
Ron didn't get any award for this wonderful movie, but it will live in the minds of everyone who has ever seen it.
