The film is both a testimonial to and a send-up of the all-American can-do spirit, and a salute to what Sachs and Neistat call the "analog era."

Rated: 4/4

"A Space Program" may find cheeky humor in our quest for meaningful science. But it certainly hints that there's something worshipful in the details.

Brooklyn Magazine

A Space Program: The Movie, and Sachs's work in general, is resourceful, cheeky, and fun.

SF Weekly

The picture follows both the development of the project as well as the audience as they were guided through it, and it's significant it was an event meant to be enjoyed by the general public, and not just wasted on Burners.
