The movie's neither hopeful in contrived ways, nor hopeless in different contrived ways. Somehow it manages to be wonderful

Ok... Let's be honest. It cannot be the best movie but is quite enjoyable. The movie has the potential to develop a great plot for future movies

Socialist Propaganda from Fox News.What an downright, insulting, anti-American lie. This garbage is an insult to NASA, the Astronauts and the 400,000 Americans who made the Lunar landing possible. Fox hasn't run this garbage since 2001, but the damage has been done.Hippies, socialists and your basic anti-social types love this garbage.What on Earth inspired these people to produce this cr*p is beyond me.Garbage, is too nice a word. I love history, and I can't stand it when producers cater to stupid people. Which is what Fox does normally, but to right wing stupid people.This junk was clearly aimed at the left, and now we must live with their conceited belief that, "we never did land on the moon man".Smoke some more ganja, and get it right next time.

An eclectic group of government conspiracy fanatics and self-proclaimed "rocket scientists" think they're smarter than the rest of world. These self-styled experts betrays an abysmal lack of understanding of astronomy, physics, and photographic science. What they can't explain away is the following evidence for the reality of the Apollo moon missions:1. Impossible Cover-upAbsolutely not one person from the Apollo era's 35,000 NASA employees or 200,000 contractors has ever stepped forward with "whistle-blowing" testimony or "smoking gun" memos. 2. NASA's Own Actions Are Inconsistent With Pulling Off a Moon HoaxIf what actually happened during the Apollo program was scripted, the government showed an unbelievable penchant for gambling and brinksmanship. For example, NASA would have had to pretend to almost kill the crew of Apollo 13. For what? To boost TV ratings?3. Cargo of Physical EvidenceThe reality of the 842 pounds of rock samples from the moon is incontrovertible. For this to be otherwise all of the world's foremost planetary scientists are dead wrong (imagine the book: Moon Rock Analysis for Dummies). 4. Film Special Effects Technology Was Too Primitive in the 1960sToday we all take cinema fantasy scenes for granted thanks to the rapid evolution of computer graphics and digital image processing fueled by the microcomputer revolution. Realistic footage of dinosaurs, space aliens and fantasy creatures can be completely fabricated with perfectly precise control of lighting, motion choreography, and 3D computer graphics effects. The hours of astronaut moonwalk video are far too complex to be faked with comparatively stone-age 1960s special effects technology. For example, all the effects in the 1968 landmark film 2001:A Space Odyssey required complex, time consuming, and cumbersome optical printing techniques costing the equivalent of $54 million today.5. Space is Not Lethal to HumansThe radiation and micrometeorite hazards of space did not pose so lethal a threat to humans that they could not make a mere two-week cruise to the moon and back. The dosimeters worn by the Apollo astronauts showed they received about the same cumulative dosage as a chest X-ray while spending 30 minutes zipping though the Van Allen radiation belts at 25,000 miles per hour. 6. Direct Observational Evidence . The first direct visual evidence was uncovered by the 1994 Clementine lunar orbiter images that reveal disturbed regolith (but no impact crater) around the exact location of the Apollo 15 landing site. NASA's Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter to be launched later this year will be able to photograph the left behind Apollo hardware. But of course that won't convince the skeptics because the photo came from – whom else -- NASA!7. Could Not Be Filmed On a Soundstage Or In Area 51If the moonwalks were filmed in the top secret Area 51 as some conspiracy folks assert, the shadows would have noticeably changed direction as the sun moved across the sky. And, somehow the blue desert sky would have had to been matted out to be black. NASA's use of gold-mirrored helmet faceplates for the Apollo astronauts also nails reality. The faceplates would have reflected everything if the footage was shot on a soundstage: lights, cameras and technicians (caution: cinematographer is closer than he appears). 8. Landing Site Picture are Photographically AccurateThe long list of claims about "studio lighting" of the moonwalks only betrays the critics' lack of understanding of fundamental photography. All the images are consistent with one single brilliant light source – the sun. Because of the bright sun and the lack of studio fill lighting the moonwalk image shadows are inky black. Moon surface photos have a much bigger contrast ratio (range of difference between brightest and darkest parts of the image) of at least 20:1. A Hollywood lighting technician would have used the standard lighting ratio of 3:1. 9. You Don't See Stars in the DaytimeThe completely idiotic but highly publicize "gotcha" is that there are no stars in the lunar sky. Duh, It was lunar daytime during the moonwalks. Therefore, the cameras were set on the same exposure you would use for a sunny day at the beach on Earth. Try photographing stars at midnight with a simple box camera pre-set for a daytime exposure and see what develops. If stars did appear in the images it would have been proof the footage was faked. 10. You Can't Fake 1/6 GravityIt was a surprise on Apollo 11 to see astronaut hopping around like kangaroos under the gently tug of 1/6 gravity. No one could have scripted this. It is never was as Hollywood ever imagined it. This cannot be realistically faked except through the use of sophisticated computer graphics. Conspiracy theorists can't dismiss hours and hours of Apollo footage that shows all lunar object following simple ballistic motion in 1/6 g that is completely differently than it would appear in Earth's gravitational environment.

Why are you all so determined to slate the show? Does it not seem reasonable that the American Government is lying again, they do lie about most things you know! With all the conjecture about "did we?" or "didn't we?" No body has thought about what the Government of a nation is capable of... Threatening, killing, destroying, lying, hiding... etc.It's obvious to even the very dim that the video footage and all its evidence is fake. It does NOT mean that there was no Moon landing though. It IS possible to land on the moon (even then), but those bits of evidence from NASA were faked in order to show what couldn't be shown for real (due to technology issues). Some of those pictures were most probably 'touched up' to show detail. Since NASA had already denied this, they would lose face if the truth came out. So they continue to deny. As for: No stars, no engine plume, no crater, flag moves... These are explained through simple means (as mentioned in earlier posts). It does, however, raise other questions, like... Who filmed the ascent? Or, why evidence suddenly goes missing after its authors death, which could prove or dis-prove this whole debate? THINK BEFORE YOU RANT AND WAVE YOUR FLAG!So instead of slagging those whom know the difference between fake and real pictures/film. Remember, they would also be happily proved wrong. Fox are bound to issue a rebuttal. Wouldn't you, if the Government threatened you? They are known for it after all.

In my astronomy class, we watched this movie and then went through why all the theories are wrong. There is an entire website dedicated to why everything in this movie is wrong Everything in this movie is taken out of context for sensationalism.Conspiracy-theory-nutjobs should spend less time researching the Illuminati, the reverse-vampires, the Zionists, the saucer-people, and the Freemasons and instead take an introductory physics course.
