Directed by: Rob Sitch Starring: Sam Neill, Rob Sitch Director: Rob Sitch Starring: Sam Neill, Tom Long, Kevin Harrington Plot: A team of Australians are manning a radio telescope in the middle of a sheep paddock. They are responsible for passing the signals from Apollo 11 - the moon mission - to NASA HQ. Views:Likable quirky characters, a story line that rarely falls away, good acting from both the Australians and the guest stars. Excellent character development and the romance subplot, unlike many australian films, doesn't seem contrived in the least. 3/5

Sam Neill is and always will be a legend but the movie does plod on a bit too slow for my liking. Tom Long and Kevin Harrington play their signiature roles and the dude that plays the Security Guard is pretty funny. 3.5/5

A nice, sensible, inoffensive movie. For this I'd give it a 3, but since it's an Australian movie set in a nice, sensible and inoffensive Australian country town I'm giving it a 4.

A great Australian movie, in a great Australian location, with brilliant actors, based on a great true story. Filled with great dry humour. 4/5
