Entertainment Reviews:
APOLLO 13 is...A-OK. In an era when cinematic heroics seem to be defined by bullets and brawn, it is a pleasure to see a movie in which the good guys triumph by using their brains!!!

...This book-faithful, 2 1/4-hour team effort shrewdly keeps its eye on the ball....The movie will happily repay multiple viewings... -- 4 out of 4 stars
USA Today
The special effects are as spectacular as anything in Star Trek, but Howard shows wise restraint in not inflating the drama and tension inherent in the true story.

Rating: 4/5 --
Partially filmed in genuine weightless conditions, Ron Howard's movie is a technical tour de force.

Five days summarized in two hours and twenty of pure spectacle that rises, by own merit, as one of the best productions that Ron Howard has signed throughout his career. [Full Review in Spanish]
