Apollo 13 is about an adventure to space!  And it's based off a true event!  Apollo 13 is red hot with suspense, a lunar module experiences an explosion in the midst of a mission, blowing out fuel and oxygen, and three astronauts must surrender control to gravity to take them back home.  A theme of this film is human worth, and it's inspirational that the whole world concerns themselves with the survival of just three men.
The cast is superb (how can you go wrong with Tom Hanks and Kevin Bacon?),  which really pulls the movie together and are very believable.  The lighting and special effects are also very good, which is important for a space. Good movie 7/10
