OK A-holes.  It's fixed.  Enjoy the orange links, because I have no fucking idea how to change them.  I basically learned scripting in four days to fix this damned thing. - Andy

The cast, the script, the photography - they're all really good, but this film is all about the space.  I'm not sure there's ever been another film that makes it quite so clear and... visceral just what a fucking amazing thing it was that they did.  Go and see this in IMAX if you still can.

Also, I thought they absolutely nailed the ending.  Anything else would have been either unnecessary or insufficient.  Well done.
Your toilet's broken, Dave, but I fixed it.

Well done film on a poor subject. I loved neil as much as any guy who was 23 months old when 11 landed possibly could.

He's a terrible person to be the subject of a dramatic film.

And Tonks is dead on. Viscerally amazing.
