Either that, or Apollo 13.
You've got possibly the least accurate motion picture ever made on the subject of spaceflight and possibly the most accurate together on one bill.

Both great films of course...

That movie really sucked , it made James Bond look bad.


All the original James Bonds with Sean Connery are a must see as well.

POLITICIANS & DIAPERS NEED TO BE CHANGED OFTEN AND FOR THE SAME REASON

A person properly schooled in right and wrong is safe with any weapon. A person with no idea of good and evil is unsafe with a knitting needle, or the cap from a ballpoint pen.

I remain pessimistic given the way BATF and the anti gun crowd have become tape worms in the guts of the Republic. - toad

What, no one has suggested Red Dawn yet?

Hmm...it's a toss up between Clear and Present Danger, The Hunt for Red October, and Black Hawk Down.

I can't watch Blackhawk Down any more. It's mainly the scene where the guy is dying from the gunshot wound to his femoral artery and the medic is trying to save him.

How about Battle:Los Angeles ? - it's a thinly disguised recruiting video for the USMC but in my opinion that's a good thing :lol:
