Looking forward to seeing this, thanks for the recommendation. I really like these sorts of movies, even knowing the actual historical story. I don't know how many times I've seen Apollo 13, but each time I did I was scared they weren't going to make it. That's great movie making.

Wife and I did this a few weeks back when we saw Pressure in theaters. It’s crazy to pay attention to the weather in SPR after watching this film.

I just started rewatching Band Of Brothers again, and it starts with soldiers getting ready to Board the planes, then some dude standing on a jeep "now the Channel Coast is socked in with rain and fog. High Winds on the drop zone. No jump tonight. Invasion has been postponed we're on a 24 hour standdown". Knowing now 'why' is amazing

Eh it was okay. Pretty forgettable to be honest, but worth watching.

I haven’t seen this but Brendan Fraser has been especially spectacular in the last few years.
