  An action-packed "historical fiction"

One of my favorite stories, until I researched many of the facts for myself.

Tom Wolfe did an excellent job writing the mostly-true tales of the "History of the Future"... Filled with viberant characters, thought-provoking twists, and an ending straight of out Hollywood, this is the tale that launched (punt intented) Chuck Yeager into super-stardom.

Worth the price, and take the facts at face-value.

This is THE definitive movie about America's early days in space. If you haven't yet seen it, read the book by Tom Wolfe, then get the movie.

I always thought that the right stuff was one of the best movies of the 1980's--and I had bought the original release(1n 1997 i think).It was great, but some thing was missing.This special 2-disc edition of "The Right Stuff"rights what was wrong with the original release--not only do you get a new digital transfer with remastered sound in dolby digital in 5:1 --you get another disc of special features-additonal scenes,story behind documentary,interviews, vintage footage and more.If you love this movie(or aree interested in the origins of the U.S. space program(NASA)you must own this DVD.

Whether a lover of history, military aviation, the space program leading-up to man walking on the moon, and / or loving memories of a time when the overall population of the United States was so patriotic in the immediate aftermath of World War II, this movie is for you and your family.

Based on an era in American history where the United States was moving-on after winning World War II and with it, the United States Military Complex was strengthening with the support of popular patriotism to hinder any possibilities of war occurring again with showcasing the rapid evolutions in aviation technology and planting the seeds for the development of the Space Program and the goal of placing Americans on the surface of the moon and "returning them safely back to the Earth."

This lengthy, but riveting journey throughout, takes you into the personal lives of the families and heroes and their striving to beat the odds using the technologies developed by Americas youngest and brightest and conquering the inherent hardships that come with these public service requirements.

For those that seek to disappear from the present and enter into the nostalgia of post World War II and through the Kennedy years living within the cultures that made this time great in American history, The Right Stuff is the ideal time machine to do so.

America achieved the incredible in the 1960's and the generation that sparked it was motivated by the original 7 Mercury. Combine this with an all star cast that includes Ed Harris and Dennis Quad, you get an amazing story.

  Can't beat it...
Review created: 06/08/08

This movie is an unequaled classic that highlights a time in history that everyone THINKS they know about. A wonderful companion to Tom Wolfe's timeless book, this film shows the life of a pilot and the myriad issues surrounding the American space race. Everyone who loves films should buy this, and the fact that Levon Helm (of the Band)is the narrator is worth the price of this DVD.

I was a big fan when it was first released. It's one of those movies you like to sit and watch every now and then. Any movie that has a historical significance either factual or stretches the truth is a must see in my opinion.

Enjoyed it especially after having personally met General Chuck Yeager on December 7, 2007 at Pearl Harbor. The reason he wasn't chosen to be an Astronaut was not having graduated from college even though he was probably a better flyer than those who did go.
