A pre school kid with a video camera

Rating: 1/10 (13 October 2018)

What a dud.
Shaky camera work for no reason at all. Extreme close up, and almost every scen is too dark. The actors are totally deprived of any emotion. Only Claire Foy seems lik a real person. The others feel like biological robots.
None of the drama of mission control are to be found in this movie. And the hundreds of thousands of people that was there for the launch is just ignored. No drama, no build up, no feeling.
The only thing this movie does is make you long to see "Apollo 13" again. That was a real movie with all the elements in it to enjoy, entertain, and thrill the audience. Do yourself a favor and miss out on "First Man".
One man in the audience actually left the theater in the middle of the movie with the loud comment: "What a crap movie this is!". I had high hopes, so I sat through it, but now i kind of agrees with him.
