A dull waste of time,
By Reynoldbot (Minneapolis, MN) - See all my reviews
This review is from: What Happened on the Moon? - An Investigation Into Apollo, 2 DVD Special Edition (DVD)
This film is awful. I could only stomach the first 45 minutes of this 2 hour epic. The same information is available in much greater detail on the internet for free, and you get the availability of hearing both sides of the issue.
Not only is the film boring and ridiculously cheesy, but the arguments are weak. At one point, David Percy shows a video from Apollo 16 showing the jump salute. His argument is that a flap hanging loose from the PLSS backpack is visible in the still photos of the event but not in the video. It would be a good argument if the flap wasn't plainly visible in the video. They show the video multiple times and the flap is clearly flopping around during the jump. If you didn't catch it the first time, they give you another chance. At another point, they reference the "anomalous" shadow directions in the lunar photographs by showing a photograph of a row of trees and their "correctly aligned" shadows. Big honking white lines are drawn on top of the picture to show the shadow angle. Too bad one of the trees directly to the right of the big honking line has a shadow that appears horizontal in comparison to the line and the rest of the shadows. They used a picture showing diverging shadow angles to try and prove that shadow angles do not diverge under a single light source. Finally (at least to the point that I could handle watching), they show the famous photo of Buzz Aldrin standing next to the leg of the LM. They claim that the center fiducial is significantly below the center of the frame. They also claim that they are using high quality duplicates from the original master prints. They are as bold as to say that the photo must have been manipulated in nefarious ways. They are correct. The photo has been manipulated but it wasn't by NASA. People epxerienced with the Apollo record know that the top of Buzz's PLSS backpack is cut off by the top of the frame in that famous shot, but in their copy they place the top of the frame well above the backpack and to compensate they cut off a similar amount at the bottom to keep the dimensions correct. Percy and his crew either deliberately recropped the photograph themselves or are lying about their source of the photo. When the makers of this film aren't unintentionally showing us the mistakes in their arguments they are creating the anomalies themselves. They are hacks and this film is the proof.

WHAT A VERY FUNNY PACK OF LIES,

I don't care what the liar Sibrel says. The verdict is in. You can not refute absolute proof. There are pictures on the moon of 3 lunar landers, three lunar rovers, the American flag and hundreds and hundreds of footprints. These pictures were taken by a Japanese probe with the finest of cameras.
Never mind that there are a MILLION people who had work to do on Apollo. I think I will announce this on the evening news. You can find the Japanese pictures on the internet. WOW!! Do you REALLY THINK THAT A million PEOPLE WORLDWIDE WOULD LIE? iF SO, you are an idiot.

Blather, bunkum, claptrap, drivel, piffle, tomfoolery, and twaddle,
This review is from: What Happened on the Moon? - An Investigation Into Apollo, 2 DVD Special Edition (DVD)
Junk science in it's most venal incarnation. Do not waste your money, in my opinion this expose only reveals the willingness of the producers to distort the facts for monetary gain. I am convinced the Dr David Groves presented in this video does not actually exist. A seriously flawed film. It might provide a chuckle or two if you are an engineer or scientist, otherwise only of interest to tinfoil hat wearers.
