Netflix Stars - The Astronaut Farmer

"The Astronaut Farmer" Finally a pretty decent PG-rated movie all could watch. A good message film and fun. 3.75 out of 5 stars. Excellent casting -- I still think Billy Bob Thornton is a little creepy (be sure to watch the outtake special feature), but he is well-suited and does good with his character. The writers' daughters are the girls in the movie - they looked like they had a great time. And one of the writers is one of the FBI agents. Lots of subtle and not so subtle references in names and situations (the names of the characters, etc.). And the lighting is incredible...It should have won an Oscar, if it didn't.
