Review of October Sky

I loved this film, it's simple and you've seen it all before, that's

very true, but this time it's done well. Young Homer (get it?) sets off

on his journey of discovery and it's a joy to watch. His troubled

relationship with his father is pitch perfect, as it is with his

friends. Inspirational without being sappy, this is like those old great

films of Barry Levinson. Very little schmaltz and a lot of heart. Rent

it, you'll love it.
