Product Description

It had been less that a year since man first walked on the moon, but as far as the American public was concerned, Apollo 13 was just another "routine" space flight - until these words pierced the immense void of space: "Houston, we have a problem." Ron Howard directs Academy Award® winner Tom Hanks, Kevin Bacon, Bill Paxton, Gary Sinise and Ed Harris in a riveting suspense-thriller from Imagine Entertainment. Stranded205,000 miles from Earth in a crippled spacecraft, astronauts Jim Lovell (Hanks), Fred Haise (Paxton) and Jack Swigert (Bacon) fight a desperate battle to survive. Meanwhile, at Mission Control, astronaut Ken Mattingly (Sinise), flight director Gene Kranz (Harris) and a heroic ground crew race against time - and odds - to bring them home. It's a breathtaking adventure that tells a story of courage, faith and ingenuity that is all the more remarkable because it is true!

NASA's worst nightmare turned into one of the space agency's most heroic moments in 1970, when the Apollo 13 crew was forced to hobble home in a disabled capsule after an explosion seriously damaged the moon-bound spacecraft. Tom Hanks, Kevin Bacon, and Bill Paxton play (respectively) astronauts Jim Lovell, Jack Swigert, and Fred Haise in director Ron Howard's intense, painstakingly authentic docudrama. The Apollo 13 crew and Houston-based mission controllers race against time and heavy odds to return the damaged spacecraft safely to Earth from a distance of 205,500 miles. Using state-of-the-art special effects and ingenious filmmaking techniques, Howard and his stellar cast and crew build nail-biting tension while maintaining close fidelity to the facts. The result is a fitting tribute to the Apollo 13 mission and one of the biggest box-office hits of 1995. --Jeff Shannon

but decided to duplicate the room on a Hollywood sound stage to give him better control over lighting and camera angles

Reviewed in the United States on October 4, 2016

Verified Purchase

I worked at the Johnson Space Center when the Apollo 13 movie was originally released. The director, Ron Howard, considered filming in the Apollo Mission Control Center (MCC), but decided to duplicate the room on a Hollywood sound stage to give him better control over lighting and camera angles. The set designers extensively photographed the MCC and duplicated it down to the last detail including stenciled lettering on the walls, and the layout of the Ford Aerospace video display consoles. It is virtually impossible to tell that the move WAS NOT shot in the actual MCC. The details that were changed in the movie were for the most part insignificant to the story. Large teams of people working behind the scenes on the actual Apollo 13 mission were consolidated down to a few characters in the movie. The flight controllers work rotating shifts, yet only the primary team was depicted in the movie. Adding the other flight control shifts would have been more accurate, but could have been confusing. Sacrifices need to be made to squeeze nearly 6 days of mission in to 2 hours.

Never pales. Always thrills. Hanks got his wish to be an astronaut (finally) and we are glad of it!

This movie is my favorite movie. It puts a lump in my throat every time I watch it. And I have watched it a lot. What I love about it, is the hero's have slide rules and short sleeve shirts and glasses. No car chases. No gun fights. Just guts and the spirit to keep trying in the face of what seems hopeless situations. Probably my favorite movie by Hanks and Howard. And it makes me smile to hear NASA loved it so much, they wanted to use frames of the lift off. Way cool.

An Incredible and TRUE story of overcoming adversity

Reviewed in the United States on October 21, 2018

Verified Purchase

Whatever you have heard about "fake news" has NOTHING to do with this dramatic and true event. Both the US and the former Soviet Union have had near disasters in space. This movie very clearly and accurately chronicles the events of what was meant to be a "typical" flight to the moon in April of 1970, less ten months after Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin's historic moon landing (and, also the unsung here of that trip, Michael Collins, who orbited the moon as the others went on their historic trip on the Eagle to the lunar surface).

If you want to see NASA during her "finest hour" then you will certainly not want to miss this epic video.

This two disc 4K Ultra HD/HDR/Blu-Ray, arrived on time and undamaged. Picture, sound and features playback is superb, especially now that this Ron Howard movie has been given a glorious makeover in 4K UltraHD/HDR and its soundtrack is now available in stunning Dolby Atmos X, which brings the movie alive gives me the viewer the ultimate in viewing pleasure and the ultimate in movie watching experience. I am so pleased that I made the move over to 4K UltraHD/HDR, with Dolby Atmos X for sound and vision. 10 out of 10.

Apollo 13 The Best

Reviewed in the United States on February 21, 2017

Verified Purchase

What a great movie. Ron Howard said this was his favorite movie that he directed. I remember as a kid watching this whole thing unfold. We would watch tv not for the shows, but we'd just be waiting for Apollo 13 updates. After watching this movie a couple times I looked up the astronauts to see if they were still around and how old they are. Lovell is 88 now. We still haven't gone back to the moon. I would suggest that young people familiarize themselves with this movie, because it's a true story. These guys were lucky that they were able to get back to a Earth- of course they had some of the smartest people in the USA working to get them home. Great American movie and story.

An Overlooked Classic

Reviewed in the United States on July 24, 2017

Verified Purchase

Hadn't seen this movie since it was in theaters. Not only does it hold up after all these years, it also outshines most modern movies of its type. There are no lazy plot twists such as characters going crazy or trying to sabotage the rest of the team. Like the Martian, this tells the story of a group of smart, determined people pulling together to save stranded astronauts. What is even more amazing, this story is true.

If you liked The Martian, you might love Apollo 13.

Really I thought this was about going to the moon.

Reviewed in the United States on July 19, 2020

Verified Purchase

Ok, yes they go to the moon, but it focuses on other things a lot more than the mission. It starts with the captain of Apollo 13 watching the first man on the moon, I sniped most of the party seen so I can not tell you if there is anything filthy in that seen. (I am sure there was once I watched a little more of the movie). Right after this I skipped a seen when the main carter was kissing his wife. I am not really like kissing (I am a male what do you expect?) but I can deal with it, but he seemed to be getting a bit too much into it to the point it was disturbing.

Well me an my family thought it was smoothing out, but then it shows a guy who was not clothed with his wife with only a towel badly covering herself. (What is the point about this move about again? Oh the moon right? Then why are we not showing that more?)

Well we skipped a good portion of the movie, hoping when they got into space it would start to be more interesting. No. It kept going to dramatic things, and when the move showed some day taking a shower we turned it off. What does some woman in a shower have to do with going to the moon?

All in all, going to the moon was in the background for most of the movie and the main focus was on adult themes. Don't know if it got any better, and I did not bother.

This is a superior 4k release despite the fact that it was released some years ago. Sharp, detailed images. Some scenes have amazing depth of field. The sound was amazing, especially during the launch sequence.

Could have been a 5 star movie ...

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on August 12, 2019

Verified Purchase

While making a big fuss about dedication to historical and technical accuracy this film contains many inaccuracies and some sadly gratuitous emotional conflict (non-existent in the real events of Apollo 13). It is the false emotional conflict between the astronauts, as if the story itself was not dramatic enough, that forced me to drop a star. That said, this is still a brilliant film, so much so that I've watched it several times. Worth getting the special edition DVD with JIm Lovell's commentary if you want to separate truth from fiction.

Superb film, brilliant Blu-ray. And cheaper than streaming!

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on August 9, 2019

Verified Purchase

I loved Apollo 13 when I watched it at the cinema when it was released in the 90's, and I still own a VHS copy of it. Amazingly, in a collection of close to 1000 DVDs and Blu-Rays, I don't own it on disc. With the recent celebrations of the moon landings, I had a hankering to watch it again for the first time in years. No longer rocking a VHS player in my home cinema line-up, I went looking for it on Amazon Prime Video, Sky Cinema or any of the catch up services, but only Amazon had it on a pay to watch basis. I did a quick search on Amazon and found that I could buy the full remastered Blu-Ray copy for less money, delivered in a couple of days. I went for that option, so I can watch it again and again. Bargain.

As for the film, it stands the test of time very well. Armed these days with the internet it's easy to fact check, and while there's obvious creative license used throughout, it remains true to the story and one that was a remarkable moment in space travel and human ingenuity.

No audio upgrade on BD

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on January 30, 2019

Verified Purchase

We all know this film so no point in reviewing that. This score is for the overall package. The 4K disc has great picture and fantastic sound. Disappointingly, the BD is the standard 5.1 audio with no upgrade to Dolby Atmos or DTS-X. The very first 4K disc that I bought (Deepwater Horizon) has Dolby Atmos on both discs. Shame.
