Full Plot Details

When a Russian satellite orbiting the Earth starts to veer off course. It seems like the guidance system in the satellite is of American origin. It's important to try and fix it before it comes into the atmosphere. N.A.S.A. man, Bob Gerson (James Cromwell) tries to find out who designed it, and discovers that it was designed by Frank Corvin (Clint Eastwood), an Air Force pilot who, forty years ago, was part of a team who was originally suppose to go to space, but when N.A.S.A. was formed and Gerson's influence, they were dropped. Gerson asks Frank to help, but Frank still holds a grudge. But after some prodding, he agrees but only if he and his team can go there so he can fix it. Gerson reluctantly agrees, so Frank recruits his former team members, "Tank" Sullivan (James Garner), Jerry O'Neill (Donald Sutherland), and "Hawk" Hawkins (Tommy Lee Jones) to join him. After some strenuous tests, they're cleared. And they go up with two other astronauts and check out the satellite and discover that they weren't told the whole truth.

Movie Reviews

San Francisco Chronicle - 10/10 by Bob GrahamSpace Cowboys is the summer's best movie.
Chicago Tribune - 9/10 by Michael WilmingtonSpace Cowboys works both as a humorous action movie and a cultural statement.
Screen It! - 9/10 by Jim JudyThe script's plot unfolds in a predictable, if herky-jerky fashion and that the villains are nothing more than one-dimensional 'meanies.'
One Guy's Opinion - 9/10 by Frank SwietekThe ingratiating cast pulls off their mission with the ease of the old pros that they are.
New York Post - 9/10 by Lou LumenickExpertly directed, acted and written crowd-pleaser.
Philadelphia Inquirer - 9/10 by Steven ReaAn amiable mix of "Grumpy Old Men" comedy and "Apollo 13" can-we-fix-this-jalopy-before-we-die? Drama.
Time - 9/10 by Richard CorlissIt blends tension and emotion, computer wizardry and dramatic skill in a vigorous climax--and the most impressive, haunting final shot of the movie year.
The New York Times - 9/10 by Dana StevensOne of the best entertainments this season has yet offered.
Combustible Celluloid - 9/10 by Jeffrey M. AndersonIt wants to get the details of the mission right, but it wants to move fast enough to give us a rollercoaster ride. It does both.
Sight and Sound - 8/10 by Edward BuscombeDespite the poignancy of old age, the mood of the film is cheerful, sustained by the high spirits of the four veterans.
