Hidden Figures is a fantastic movie based on the true story of black women that worked at NASA during the 1960's space race. It focuses primarily on three women that became firsts in their fields against great odds. The main character, Katherine Johnson, who recently died in her late 90's, (played by Taraji P. Henson) begins as a human computer in the Black section of NASA, but ends up in a much more prestigious position, due to her expertise and perseverance, by the end of the story, as do the other two principle women. The story is well written and well acted by main characters and minor characters alike. It is also clean, and respectful of Christianity. I really appreciated that. Hidden Figures is both educational and emotional. It also manages to be entertaining due to caring about each of the women. A rare treat in today's movies.
Definitely deals with a side of the space program I had never given much thought to. Enlightening and entertaining.
Wonderful movie!! History lesson, also. Enjoyed this completely.
great movie, I didn't realize this was based on a true story
Excellent transaction. Speedy Delivery with a great price.
great informational movie
We absolutely love this movie about (as written on IMDB.com) "a team of female African-American mathematicians who served a VITAL role in NASA during the early years of the U.S. space program." The main character, Katherine Johnson (Who turned 101 on August 26, 2019), really shows the struggles they had in overcoming being women but more importantly being African American. This is a must see movie whether you are interested in the space program or not. We enjoyed it so much that I went out and bought the DVD after seeing the movie on TV. We watched it again when we got the DVD.
haven't gotten the actual blu-ray disc yet, but the digital copy was made available to me immediately - watched it the same day
Absolutely fabulous movie!!! I am always pleased when I find a movie that I'm glued to from the beginning, even more so when I find it's based on reality. Having great actors doesn't hurt either!
Great movie about the women behind NASA's success!
