I watched this the other morning, it is available on Amazon Prime for free. It isn't a particularly exciting movie, but I really enjoyed it because the Challenger disaster shaped much of my life. I was in 6th grade at home on a snow day watching the launch live when it happened. Then later in college the main protagonist's (Roger Boisjoly) experiences were used as a study in ethics by my Intro to Mechanical Engineering class and most recently I met Allan McDonald, the man who refused to sign off on the launch at a safety standown event.
I wish they didn't change the names, but I am sure a bit of liberty was taken with the film. If you have any interest in engineering disasters or ethics I suggest this movie.
I will also preface this by saying that studying engineering disasters is one of my main interests.
