Maybe Clint Eastwood's laziest film: there's a part where a character straps himself to a bunch of nuclear warheads and attempts to blast himself halfway to the moon so the moon's gravity will carry him the rest of the way (to the moon) so, when he gets there, he can fire the missiles safely into outer space. Well, they show this guy blasting off for the moon and then in the next scene two characters are talking and one says "Do you think he made it?" and the other one says, "Yeah, he made it, and he was able to launch those missiles safely into outer space." But hey, they're the Space Cowboys, what am I going to tell you that will change that? Nothing. God bless the Space Cowboys, America's first responders.

This review reportedly contains spoilers. I can handle the truth.

Space Cowboys is a silly film with Clint Eastwood and Tommy Lee Jones going to space. The film is formulaic, too long, and ultimately not all that interesting. But at the same time, the film has a lot of charm. It's a lot of fun to watch a lot of these actors play off each other and the film did keep my interest despite not much happening. This is a very likable film and while I can't call it a good movie, I still had a decent time with it.

Nothing more than a time killer to be honest.

Good cast. It has its moments, but not a great movie.

A wonderful movie from that wonderful actor and director Clint Eastwood.

Really funny and very tender and suspenseful in all the right momments. Eastwood, Jones, Garner and Sutherland all work together in such a way you'd think was a fly on the wall NASA documentary, and the space sequences are great to watch.
But what sells it for me is the remarkable chemistry from Eastwood and Jones. They work so well together and produce such memorable screentime scenes together.

A must see, and must buy for that

Clint Eastwood and the Infinite Mellowness

A lot of fun. It works entirely based on the work of the 4 main cast members, particularly a never disappointing Donald Sutherland. It's pretty ridiculous, but it's hard not to smile. Also, it has a pretty great final shot.

Ludicrous premise is powered into orbit by the raw charisma of the four leading men. Enjoyable, but nonsensical.

4 old guys go to space. Hijinks ensue. Heroism prevails.
