Audience Member It is an historical fake by removing the father of the Apollo program from movie: Wernher von Braun . Maybe he vas because ones considered him a nazi. He was a brilliant scientist forced by the history to serve a nazi government because he had no other way to continue his work. He did the same in US. All the rocket development in US would be a fiasco without him. SHAME Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/21/23 Full Review Audience Member Hidden Figures was more entertaining. This is a fairly self indulgent opportunity for white men to reminisce mixed with propoganda of the time. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/12/23 Full Review Audience Member I have just seen this. A quite remarkable film which focusses on the team behind the Apollo astronauts and tells their stories. This is a side of the missions which films and documentaries often neglect. It is just fascinating to hear the first hand stories of what happened in mission control told by the men who were there and are now in their late 70s and over. It is above all a human story and shows just what can be achieved when there is a focus on one goal combined with great leadership. You will probably never see a better film about the importance of team-working! A pleasure from beginning to end. Watch it! Now! Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/26/23 Full Review Audience Member Es una lástima que con todo el material que tienen hayan salido con algo tan plano, tan aburrido. El documental pasa tan solo por las entrevistas porque de resto es de lo mas aburrido y sorprende porque toda la historia de la misión Apollo ha dado para tantas cosas, pero este documental no le llega ni a los tobillos :( Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 02/14/23 Full Review Audience Member Highly recommend. America really was great. The achievements those men made with what they had at the time is astounding. They truly had the right stuff. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/01/23 Full Review Audience Member While much of the material may have already been shown or focused on in other films and documentaries. The filmmakers shift focus from the astronauts to the men in the room of Mission Control giving a new POV on events that occurred. With clean editing and a fitting score it is a documentary for those that may not necessarily enjoy the usual talking head format as it combines real footage with some CGI sequences to explain things. Several of these men have been portrayed on film such as in 'Apollo 13' to see the real person and hear their experience is interesting as well as inspiring. Great film for fans of the space program.
