Especially about going into space. And even more because I worked on America's space program in the seventies as an engineer. PROS: Billy Bob Thornton was the perfect astronaut. The movie dares you to DREAM big, and follow your dream. CONS: Too long. Anyone could easily cut 45 minutes with no loss of anything. CONCLUSION: Hollywood always makes great "follow your dream" movies. This movie is not great, but it is good. And it's much better than the low rating by many critics. I guess they're pissed that they never followed their dream. I did.
