Review of For All Mankind (1989) by Andrew D — 02 Jul 2010

H: considering the subject, less engagement than expected.

W: I watched this recently too, and I have to agree with you.

H: the main problem is the lack of editing. i've seen other real-footage docs that do a much better job of stitching together pieces to create a compelling narrative. this one has too much fat, maybe due to the director's own interests; he couldn't bring himself to trim them away.
