Gentlemen/Gentlewomen/Zims/Zers,

Apologies. I was less than 100% articulate. A common failure of the existant medium, and a reason I've backed WAY off the interwebs.

Pilots born pre-1980 MAY/SHOULD love this film. Pilots born AFTER 1980 MIGHT like this film. Your mileage may vary.

Based on a completely unscientific review of the movie goers around me at my personal viewing, I'd say that movie goers of a "certain age" seemed enthralled.

Others, with their kids (and their constantly referenced "smart" phones) in tow, seemed bored beyond belief.

I plead "middle age". If, as a child, you too looked at astronauts, navy pilots, model rocketry, engineering, nerves of steel, and nigh-unsurrmountable technical challenges as amazing things....you will enjoy this movie.

(Imagine a "Master Warning" on a multi-billion dollar US prestige mission whilst running low on fuel and descending onto the surface of the moon A QUARTER BILLION miles away from your home base...in real time....WWYD?)

If you enjoy Marvel (TM) movies, insta-tech, virtual worlds, and computer generated wizardry, this may not be your movie. NOTHING WRONG WITH THAT. The world moves on, all hail the brave new world, etc.

For a documentary that shows men putting everything on the line, supported by their huge teams of faceless men and women, it's an amazing show. I choked up at several points.

Highly recommended. IMAX or nothing; the "countdown" pre -Saturn V launch was riveting. As was the actual lunar module landing.

What a time to be alive. What a time to be an American.

Dragging the wife in tow to see this again tomorrow before it goes to video. WOW. It's that good.
