A look back at the life of astronaut Neil Armstrong and the legendary space mission that led him to become the first man to walk on the Moon on July 20, 1969.
Now this here's a right good flick. It dives deep into the life of Neil Armstrong, which is a breath of fresh air since we usually just see the high-flying hero. Gosling did a fine job keeping it real, makin' you feel like you're right there strappin' in for the big launch. The way they handled the space scenes, not overdoin' it with CGI, hit the mark for me. It's got a quiet power to it, real subtle and strong like. If you reckon you know all there is to know about the moon landing, this'll give you somethin' new to chew on.
