Movie Description HAMLET 2’s Steve Coogan makes a departure from traditional comedy with this drama set in the days before the launch of the Challenger shuttle. The British actor stars as Campbell Babbitt, a journalist who has left New York for a small town in New Hampshire, where teacher/astronaut Christa McAuliffe is from. But his assignment to write about the hero doesn’t hold his interest--instead, he concentrates on a group of students who are reeling from the death of their teacher. WHAT GOES UP also stars Hilary Duff, Josh Peck, Olivia Thirlby, and Molly Shannon.
Industry Reviews "There's some nice filmmaking tucked inside WHAT GOES UP....The antagonism that comes to a boil between Campbell and Tess gives the film some bristling tension." New York Times - Manohla Dargis (05/29/2009)
