Review of First Man (2018) by Biotofu — 02 Nov 2018

The shaky cam felt very unnecessary and it was giving me slight motion sickness. I thought the shakiness was a reflection of armstrongs inner self but the whole damn movie it just shoke nonstop even when characters are just sitting still on a chair.

then a lot of the scenes felt like the director just threw his camera and a broken flashlight into a tumble dryer and those scenes would go on for ever. most of the time the audience is just confused at what is going on on the screen.

armstrongs character was also so distant and unlikable compared to some of his colleagues, which really made it hard for me to understand him. if you like the style of lincoln you might like this movie.
