OSCAR REVIEW: Hidden Figures

"We all get to the peak together or we don't get there at all," says Al Harrison, played by Kevin Costner (Thirteen Days, Field of Dreams). So sums up the conflict of Hidden Figures as three colored women at NASA strive to overcome the racial barriers set by society as the administration hurries to move ahead in the Space Race by sending John Glenn into space. Now a nominee for Best Picture and numerous other Academy Awards and repeated box office champion, the film seems to have resonated with general audiences and critics alike.

Rated PG for thematic elements and some language
