Space Cowboys (2000)

Something just doesn't quite feel right about 'Space Cowboys'.

It's good, but it always feels like it's stuck in second gear to me. I was anticipating more based on the cast, but even they are a little underwhelming. it's relative to what I was expecting, as Eastwood is still solid, Tommy Lee Jones and Donald Sutherland too, and the plot is satisfactory; even if I would've shaved off 15-25 minutes. An interesting piece of casting, btw, is the film debut of one Jon Hamm.

Borderline forgettable, but nothing bad. It narrowly gets a 3* rating from yours truly.
