3.5/5
These elder statesmen's recollections of their brief moments on the moon, as well as of what preceded and followed, make for vivid and emotional storytelling. Go to Full Review

3/5
Meeting the men who inspired The Right Stuff is as affectionate as it is pedagogical, with just enough holy mole moments to feed the sense of awe that keeps these heroes impressive for reasons greater than the technological and physical accomplishme Go to Full Review

03/18/2013 Even as a space race enthusiast I found this a bit long and drawn out. Some very candid moments from the Apollo moon walking astronauts and very little narration, which makes for a different documentary experience. See more 11/16/2011 It seemed like this movie set out to disprove the landing by showing how crazy the astronauts are See more 10/23/2011 I didn't like the fact that some of the Apollo astronauts seem to have gone a bit bonkers in their later years, but it is actually quite a fascinating documentary. See more 04/03/2011 This inspiring and touching documentary reviews the missions and people of the US space program emphasizing the 12 men who walked on the moon in the Apollo missions. Numerous times throughout the film, I got goosebumps and hair stood straight as the music, images, and interviews combined into a deeply touching inner experience for me. I highly recommend this film to everyone as these people made history and shared their science, their time, and sometimes their lives--in a spectacular display of awe and wonder. See more 12/19/2010 Moon docs are a dime a dozen and they have to distinguish themselves more than this boring and bland movie. See more 10/07/2010 Fascinating history. Guys, you are amazing. Thank you! See more Read all reviews
