Dull and dismal.

Rating: 3/10 (1 December 2018)

I remember ( as a fourteen year old) the moon landing as an extraordinary occasion where the world held its breath. Neil Armstrong almost certainly had to be focussed, driven and probably a bit anti-social in order to get onto the moon program in the first place,but to portray him, as this director does, to be a dull guy who could certainly do with some continued grief therapy is a big error. If I had wanted to see a film concentrating on a psycho analysis of such a person this film would serve me well. However as a bio pic of one of the great icons of the 20th century, it fails completely. Even if it is a true portrayal which I doubt, it did not need this treatment. Dull, too long and ultimately a poor reflection on one of the century's defining if completely crazy accomplishments.
