Review of In the Shadow of the Moon (2007) by Kevinc. — 06 Sep 2007
I know it's easy to give out absolutes -- 10 or 0 -- but in this case, just trust me. This film, without narration, isn't a documentary. It captures so much about what makes us Americans, what makes us humans.
There's so much nuance here, you're generously rewarded for paying attention, I'm not sure even the Astronauts knew what the filmmakers were putting together. No SFX will ever match the Saturn-V ignition or Buzz Aldrin being the first human to pee on the Moon.
It's inspiring, touching and crisp enough to never be boring. Spellbinding.
