Apollo 13

Apollo 13 is a docudrama following the true events of the aborted Apollo 13 mission. I enjoyed this movie a lot. There were a lot of familiar faces, but as the movie was released in 1995, much younger. The movie was good! As a fan of space movies, this was a thrilling watch. It’s clear they used some CGI for the movie but they still kept alot of practical effect which I appreciated. The in-space scenes were done really well. The movie portrayed the coordianation between mission control and the astronauts very well. It also showed how many people make up mission control and how important each of their roles are. There was something missing about the movie, maybe a greater attachment to the characters? I’m not sure. Overall I enjoyed it and I would see myself going back and watching it again, so I’d give it a 4/5 and I’d keep it in my collection. The next movie is A Few Good Men.
