Review of The Right Stuff (1983) by Lyle R — 18 Jul 2007
A decent adaption of Tom Wolfe's amazing novel about the Mercury 7 astronauts and the pioneering flight of Chuck Yeager. Overdoes it with the rah-rah Americanism and there's a lack of character development here.
This would've been better served had it been a mini-series. Still, the performances of Sam Shepard, Scott Glenn and Ed Harris make it worthwhile.
