It's the 60s. Nuclear engineer Capt. Hank Marshall (Tommy Lee Jones) monitors radiation hazards in the Army. His wife Carly (Jessica Lange) is wild and flirtatious. They move with their daughters Alex (Amy Locane) and Becky from the South Pacific to Fort Matthews in Alabama. Hank works under Col. Vince Johnson (Powers Boothe) in underground nuclear testing. Alex starts dating the colonel's son Glenn (Chris O'Donnell). Two cowboys accidentally get irradiated from a test. Carly has an affair with Vince. Vince tricks her into committing Hank into the mental ward in an effort to hide the affair and the cowboys' irradiation.Jessica Lange flirts between sexual napalm and utter madness. Despite the craziness, she has great chemistry with Tommy Lee Jones. It could easily go camp but she makes it perfectly believable. TLJ shows some real passion. The family is dysfunctional but their connection is undeniable. The other parts with the military and nuclear testing do seem a little weaker. In the end, this is all about Lange.

American film "Blue Sky" is about a crazy family's bittersweet adventures. This family is made up of disparate characters namely an army major who is absolutely dedicated to his job, his fashion conscious albeit flirtatious wife and two not so innocent but young daughters. The entire family is having emotional issues as circumstances force it to constantly move from one army base to another due to the top secret mission handled by the army man. What makes this film interesting is its focus on the tough life in American army. This Tony Richardson film is set in 1960s, a difficult period of American army when top secret nuclear testing was carried out by its army men. The sub plot involving nuclear tests brings forward a lot of emotional issues related to behavior of army men. It is with interest one watches how an honest army major is framed and put to a mental asylum while his wife is seduced by his boss. However, everything becomes alright when this crazy family uses all its intellectual might to defeat the enemy. Tommy Lee Jones displays his natural acting talent in his role as the army major. In the film, there is brief mention of some leading actresses such as Brigitte Bardot, Marilyn Monroe and Elizabeth Taylor. However,actress Jessica Lange appears to have beaten them all with her important role which combines madness with responsibility to portray a fallen woman who is able to regain lost family honor.

"Blue Sky" might have made for a great night of television had it premiered on HBO or Showtime as a cable-film. With somewhat reduced expectations coupled with the intimacy of watching the movie on the small screen, one might be inclined to forgive the film for its lack of scope. Set in Alabama in the mid-1950s, Jessica Lange plays an Army Engineer's wife and the mother of two young girls who is tired of being dragged from one military home to the next. She harbors a dangerous, possibly manic-depressive side, and makes life difficult for everybody--leaving a trail of gossip and bad blood behind her. Tommy Lee Jones is her patient, loving husband, and Powers Boothe is Jones' newest Commanding Officer who sees only Lange's sexy externals and desires her. All three performances are very good (with Lange winning the Best Actress Oscar, possibly due to a slow year for women in film), however the picture takes a wrong turn in its third act and finishes limply. Wolfish Boothe becomes a deceitful villain (as if being a cheating husband wasn't quite enough), while Lange's volatile Carly is sent out on a limb to save her husband from the clutches of the ignorant, power-hungry government. Had the script stayed true to the character conflicts (which would have matched the film's modest budget), this may have been an effective little soaper. But there are too many ambitious ideas cranked out in the final stages, and the editing darts around trying to round off scenes which are squashy and dramatically unfulfilled. It isn't the fault of the actors; the movie becomes so hectic in its plotting that the puny returns we do get (and the overall lack of vision) are not enough to satisfy. "Blue Sky" bites off more than it can possibly chew. **1/2 from ****

Tommy Lee Jones is one of my favorite actors since I saw U.S. Marshals." Jones is an actor with a heart, integrity and charisma that only a few other actors have in my opinion. Since "U.S. Marshals," I have vowed to watch all of his films either in theaters or on tape to enjoy his range of acting. Jones leads an all-star cast in this superb film "Blue Sky."This is an epic film with characters that make the viewer want to care about them. One of the best parts of "Blue Sky" is the fact that there were several plots, which worked because they all came together well.I enjoyed how Tommy Lee Jones and Jessica Lange reciprocated their love for one another. For example, at the beginning when Lange's character was going through a difficult time Jones was there. The favor was returned when the roles were reversed.This film is one of the best films because it shows the strength of love and relationship and how they hold up during good times and bad.
