The Moon shot in summary October 23, 2009 George Kozeliski (New Mexico) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Very good historical look at Apollo. Information given that the public didn't know at the time.
Exciting and Moving October 16, 2009 sm (Pennsylvania) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This has to be the best documentary I have ever seen. Here you are retold the tale of history's greatest adventure by the very men who actually went to the moon. By the end of the movie these guys seem like old friends, and you will be hanging on to their every word. What they accomplished was beyond great and certainly required courage unlike any other explorers in history. And though you may envy the fact that they experienced something that seems almost too fantastic to believe, you'll still find yourself truly fond of how magnificently they have shared their experiences with the rest of us.
After watching this riveting composition of personal perspectives and exceptional film footage, only an utter fool would entertain any of the moon-landing-hoax nonsense that has been floating around for years. What sets this film apart from other space flight retrospectives is how each astronaut's narrative weaves together with the other's to create such a masterful and cohesive story.
This is a definite must see, even if you are not a fan of the space program.
Great introduction to the moon landings for the whole family October 13, 2009 C. Tracy 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
My husband and I watched this and thought it was pretty good. When we showed it to our four year old, he thought it was great and it helped make so many abstract concepts real to him.

I watched this documentary on a flight from Orlando to Houston, while NASA was debating whether we should ever go back. I really enjoyed it and will watch it again at home on my HD TV, but they should have made this in Widescreen, not just Full Frame.

This is a great presentation with footage I had never seen before. A must for school libraries as well as families interested in space science.
