Comment
Documentary style film of the now infamous Apollo 13 moon mission that very nearly became a tragic failure as an on board explosion meant they could not land on the moon and only creative running repairs allowed them to return safely to earth. This works well and captures the feel of the period, and the way the Apollo missions were run.
