This is one of those films that reminds people of the great things that Americans can accomplish. If you have any ounce of patriotism at all, then this movie is highly recommended. At the time that the actual event occured back in 1980, Americans were going through a very tough time. (The Carter Years...thank God there was only four of them!) This was just the thing that was needed to raise hope and morality. Nobody who saw the actual event will ever forget it!
Kurt Russel gives an excellent performance that should be recognized with an Oscar. The supporting cast is good as well. Overall, an enjoyable film. On a scale of 1 to 10 I would give it a 9.
