Brilliant for a space buff
Gripping movie. Brilliant for a space buff, or a for people to understand that a life and death problem can sometimes be saved, using limited resources, by team work and collaboration of two teams that are tens of thousands of miles away. A cool head, cracking time clocks, use of science and the human spirit. All come under one umbrella to get back to Earth a group of astronauts stranded in space.
