Amazing,
By
This review is from: Moonwalk One - The Director's Cut (DVD)
This film is amazing. The footage makes the launch more exciting than film of any space shot I've ever seen. Besides that, this documentary is a complete time capsule of 1969, a unique year in a unique decade. It's rare to see a momentous event shown in all its context - music, politics, war, hair, psychedelia... Beyond both these feats, the film is art of the highest order. Breathtaking. It should be required viewing for all Americans. In schools, it should be shown for its historic value alone. But students of history, space exploration, film and life will all be enlightened by watching Moonwalk One. Do not miss it.

Superb then, still superb,

This review is from: Moonwalk One - The Director's Cut (DVD)
I first saw this remarkable work when it first came out, almost 40 years ago. It bowled me over, not only for the historic event it so vividly and engrossingly reported but for its cinematic brilliance. This was cutting edge filmmaking, using images, juxtapositions, music, and words in a way I hadn't experienced before. So I was a little afraid to see it again last week, in this new edition. So many films I loved as a kid now seem bland, old-fashioned. But, boy, not this one. Amazingly, it's still cutting edge filmmaking, as fascinating and stirring now as it was then.

This review is from: Moonwalk One - The Director's Cut (DVD)
I'm pretty sure that I've seen em all, but this one was hidden somewhere the last couple of years to me as an Apollo geek at least.
I discovered this juwel way too late!All of the movies of the last years have some snippets from "Moonwalk one" in it, because there is no material as raw as this. It was filmed, when it al happened and that makes it so unique. The commentary is the major goody in my eyes, because the director remembers the things you dont see on the screen surrounding the scenes so vividly. Thats the real treat.Example: We all know the scene when Neil,Buzz and Mike walk towards the Van which brings them to their rocket. What I didnt know was that the camera man was surrounded by hundreds of bystanders and he had a sign on his back, that said: NASA camera, stay away or I'll kill you! The whole movie shows you things in detail that you have never seen before, because this movie was forgotten and rested in a shelf of the director. It was rediscovered and remastered, because when it came out in the early seventies the ppl were fed up with Apollo and it was a major flop. Thank god things have changed. An excellent movie, not only for the Apollo nerd.
