What movies are about...

Rating: 10/10 (7 March 2008)

Strangely enough, I don't remember exactly what my reaction was to the events portrayed in the film while they were going on. However, I do remember how incredible I felt when I watched the Apollo 11 moon landing. And this movie captures the spirit of the Apollo program better than anything I could have imagined. We have here depicted a heroic and true story (with some cinematic drama added), and an ensemble cast to die for. Every time I see it (which is at least once a month) I am moved to tears and happiness. It's what movies are about and everyone involved in its production deserves out thanks for providing us such a wonderful experience. And I always do wonder when we'll go back and who will it be.
