Rewatched this for the first time since seeing it in the cinema. Agree with original take that it's 45 minutes too long.
Really can't get over how the secret-NASA reveal thing feels like, not like James Bond but like Austin Powers, like a spoof of "Let me just take you into the next room which is unexpectedly a vast hangar in which large numbers of people are doing very complicated things".
Also, because I knew the ending, this time I couldn't help but spend the whole movie thinking, well, you know what. But I spent the whole movie thinking it, which didn't help.
6/10 too long and shitty schmaltzy bit right at the very end
