Almost Half Good. It's No Apollo 13

Rating: 3/10 (18 May 2019)

It's a Hollywood formula movie.
The sad scenes are punctuated with obligatory Hollywood rain (while the sun is shining).
Armstrong's wife is shown as emotionally burdened and burdensome. Her husband is an astronaut, and she's upset he may not come back from the moon. Didn't she know he was in a dangerous job?
The Earth scenes were drawn out, slow, and emotionally heavy.
The space scenes are pretty well done.
The humanity of the characters is lost in the overly dramatic story telling. The movie lacks reality and believability.
It's too heavy and slow. It could have been so much better.
I know there was comraderie among the astronauts. That's barely suggested in this movie.
It's no Apollo 13.
