Review of Apollo 11 (2019) by Ginak — 13 Mar 2019

Not as good as I was led to believe by the critics, but the film captured the era quite well and moved along. One thing I miss in films like this are interviews with the astronauts. I can't believe they don't exist.

You never get a sense of what these guys might be feeling – or were they chosen because they wouldn’t feel (in this documentary, they kept reporting heart beat rates but not much else). The pictures were the stunners here, and the event was covered in minute detail.

Although Neil Armstrong's smile is charming, I preferred “First Man,” even though I found that disappointing too.
