Apollo 13

good movie but I’m just telling you now, mark my words, tom hanks is an agent of the devil

Did not enjoy this movie as much as I thought I would. Too much lead up and boring interpersonal drama for a movie all about surviving space. Tom hanks is also in too many documentaries/drama/feel good movies for me to see him as any character other than Sheriff Woody

9.6 - This was a movie I watched probably a half dozen times with my dad, as a space obsessed kid. Right up there with Jurassic Park & Twister in the “never a wrong time to watch” set.

So it felt appropriate to watch for the first time in years on the 8th anniversary of his passing.

It may be that bias but it’s an all time favorite. It’s beautiful, it’s well created by the entire A-List ensemble, it tense and paced well, & has a fantastic feel-good ending. Ron Howard’s best film I’ve seen by far.

Don’t have much more. Miss you, Dad.

Great historical film about the Apollo 13 mission. Tom Hanks and Kevin Bacon are great in this film!

very wonderful story and the movie was made well, but i didn’t enjoy it as much as i thought i would. it felt slow with a lot of buildup and some cheesy moments. i liked the ending though. good movie overall, but it felt way longer than it actually was.

As someone who wasn’t so much aware of the Apollo 13 space mission, this was thrilling. Felt realistic and a solid entry into the genres of both biopics and space.
