Entertainment Reviews:
3.5 stars out of 5 -- Under its great acting, bouncy Pharrell score and message is a film that’s as geeked out about math as a superhero film is about its comic book origins....This is one of the year's best films.
RogerEbert.com
Henson gives life to Katherine’s humility as well as her assertiveness; Spencer is reliably warm yet steely; and pop star Monae offers further evidence, after her memorable turn in MOONLIGHT, that she’s a compelling screen presence.
Hollywood Reporter
[I]t’s a crowd-pleaser at heart, and the true stories it relates are too rich to want to do anything other than celebrate.
Boston Globe
I hope people see it and then go learn more.

Screen Junkies
It brings alive a time period in all its complexity.

Cultured Vultures
[O]ne of the most gratifying qualities of HIDDEN FIGURES is how it bursts onto the screen like a shot of distilled, exhilarating joy.
Washington Post
HIDDEN FIGURES pays tribute to its subjects by doing the opposite of what many biopics have done in the past -- it looks closely at the remarkable person in the context of a community....The film celebrates individual mettle, but also the way its characters consistently try to lift others up.

Description by OLDIES.com:
As the United States raced against Russia to put a man in space, NASA found untapped talent in a group of African-American female mathematicians that served as the brains behind one of the greatest operations in U.S. history. Based on the unbelievably true life stories of three of these women, known as "human computers", we follow these women as they quickly rose the ranks of NASA alongside many of history's greatest minds specifically tasked with calculating the momentous launch of astronaut John Glenn into orbit, and guaranteeing his safe return. Dorothy Vaughan, Mary Jackson, and Katherine Johnson crossed all gender, race, and professional lines while their brilliance and desire to dream big, beyond anything ever accomplished before by the human race, firmly cemented them in U.S. history as true American heroes.
Product Description:
Three female African-American mathematicians (Taraji P. Henson, Octavia L. Spencer, and Janelle Monae) provide crucial calculations for NASA's space race against the Soviets, all while dealing with the racist and sexist assumptions of their white co-workers. Kevin Costner, Kirsten Dunst, and Jim Parsons co-star in this adaptation of the book of the same name by Margot Lee Shetterly. Directed by Theodore Melfi.
