Love this Movie!

Rating: 10/10 (30 August 2013)

This is clearly one of my favorite movies in recent years. Even though some dramatic license is taken, it's still better than The Right Stuff, which it's often compared to. This film is taken from Jim Lovell's book Lost Moon, rather than a fiction book like Tom Wolfe's It also portrays the characters with more respect than that film, although Jack Sweigert was NOT a "rookie" by any means, and Ken Mattingly didn't solve the CM restart by himself (but it is mentioned that Ken was representing all those who did help out with this. This is a movie I would see over and over again. Even Gene Kranz liked the line "Failure is not an option," though he never said it. That's saying something! Kudos to Ron Howard.
