Space Cowboys (2000 Clint Eastwood & prod)

Very entertaining and extremely unbelievable. Written by Ken Kaufman & Howard Klausner.

Clint was 70, James Garner 72, Tommy Lee Jones a mere 54 and Donald Sutherland 65. With James Cromwell, Marcia Gay Harden, William Devane, Loren Dean, Courtney Vance, Barbara Babcock and way down the list, as young pilot #2, John Hamm. Toby Stephens is the young Clint, though it sounds like all the 'young' characters have been overdubbed by the older ones.

The opening music is indeed Clint's though the rest of the score is by Lennie Niehaus. Jack Green is on camera and Tom Stern is chief lighting technician.  There's an army of people credited with sound and special effects, the latter courtesy of Industrial Light & Magic. Most of the space stuff is CGI with the actors' faces imposed.
