Review: The Right Stuff (1983)
Sunday, July 19th, 2020 13:14I'd say that this movie was okay, but it wasn't for me. I was surprised by all the high reviews it had. In addition to being incredibly long, this movie seemed directed at Americans, so it didn't really inspire me.
The move never seemed to take itself too seriously so it was easy to just treat it as a simple piece of entertainment. I admit I watched this movie while doing something else, but could still pay attention to the story line. In contrast, there have been American military movies that took itself way too seriously and I was unable to focus on them at all. So this movie has that lighter tone going on for it.
