2014 Summer Movies #1: Apollo 13


(Summer movies are those that appeal on a level sublime or occasionally secondary, in one way or another, but they are movies we feel we can recommend with some extent of assurance.   Apollo 13 is starting out the movies for 2014.)

Rated PG, movie came out in 1995, event happened in 1970, lots more historical facts available including a bunch of science facts from Apollo 13 found here: http://www.universetoday.com/62339/13-things-that-saved-apollo-13/    It's an intense movie but a good one. The reluctance to watch an old space movie was quickly replaced with anticipation of what would happen next.

I admit, I think we're starting to lose track of all the movies starring Tom Hanks ;)
