      I'm such an idiot looking forward to this movie...

      To be honest, the moon landing itself should be a romantic theme. Apollo 11 made humans proudly stand on the moon overlooking their hometown for the first time. Apollo 13, after an accidental accident, sent the pilot safely back to the ground from the dark space. And with the end of the Apollo 17 mission, we haven't set foot on that land for 40 years. In the past 40 years, we have had countless opportunities and reasons to visit the bright moon again, but why didn't we go?

      'Apollo 18': What They Witnessed

      Text / Shi Lai

      "Apollo 18" appears at the moment, whether it is the subject matter or the technique, it is somewhat overwhelmed and insufficient. A film that can be regarded as "nostalgic", its significance is that it can associate many "predecessors" from it. On the basis of a comprehensive tribute to style and story, it has witnessed the unforgettable and long-lasting masterpieces in the history of film. Works packaged in the form of pseudo-documentaries are far more rare today than...

      a film about human nature

      Two astronauts came to an unfamiliar planet, and a series of discoveries made this a shocking secret plan. The Russians came to the moon, and the bodies of the Russian astronauts turned the moon from mystery to terror. A small stone removed from the body was the turning point of the entire sampling mission from smooth to terrifying, and the lunar spacecraft began to experience a series of failures. A series of national security explanations from the Department of Defense led the two poor...

      Apollo 18 Apollo 18

      Ok. . . It's been a long time since I watched a movie by myself. Today is a whim

      . In the final analysis, I went to watch aliens. I have been looking for the shadow of the alien's head all the time. Unfortunately, I didn't find it = =! ! !

      It is said that many people believe it to be true, and I also want to believe it because of my feelings for a little girl who fears that the world will not be in chaos. . .
      Although it is just a piece of stone with legs that can move,...

      Your sister! The suspense of science fiction filmed by the logic of horror films

      Your sister, the logic of sci-fi movies is completely damaged by the illogicality of horror movies.
      You have to say that the government knows that there are bugs on it, and they spend so much money to design a return cabin, and in the end they won't let you come back, they will let you go To die?
      You say that it is for the purpose of bringing back infected objects and alien life for research, but this is almost the same.

      You said that the video tapes and spaceships...

      About the conspiracy theory about the US moon landing, remember the summer "Transformers 3"? I joined the moon landing scene. At that time, the signal of the moon landing was indeed interrupted for a while. Who knows what happened. This pseudo-documentary space thriller adds some real footage of the moon landing, and with the shooting in the studio, the effect is okay. The entire film cost 5 million US dollars. I watched it in fast-forward, and the pace was really slow. content is...

      How does it feel so real. . . ....

    Movie plot

    On July 20, 1969, the "Apollo" lunar module landed on the lunar surface, starting the first moon landing in human history. Subsequently, the "Apollo" spacecraft carried out many missions to the moon, but by the 1970s, when the "Apollo 18" was preparing to take off to the moon according to the established plan, it unexpectedly received President Nixon's order: cancel the moon landing, and Ban the subsequent series of moon landing plans....

    Evaluation action

    "Apollo 18" adopts a pseudo-documentary method of fiction and reality, but due to the influence of the moon landing plan, the film is still regarded as a dark horse seed. "Apollo 18" received unanimous criticism after it was released in North America. The film looks too old and the storyline lacks fashion. The film is like a roll of documents with a taste of the 70s. The storyline is simple, and the atmosphere is mostly tense. Both the...

    Movie quotes

    • Deputy Secretary of Defense: [over comms] John, you are ordered to abort rescue immediately. Captain Anderson is a high contamination threat. You will not recover him.

      John Grey: You knew something was down there and you sent them anyway.

      Deputy Secretary of Defense: [over comms] DOD to Freedom, if you do not abort in T-minus 60 seconds, transmission will terminate. You will not receive an updated state vector. You will run out of life support package. You will not return home. You have 45 seconds to abort this rescue.

    • [first lines]

      John Grey: There's just a lot at stake here, you know? We're talkin' nation versus nation, and the race is still on. There's lots to discover out there, man.

    • [last lines]

      Richard Nixon: The voyage of Apollo dramatized its risk. The men of Apollo epitomize the character that accepts danger and surmounts it. Theirs is the spirit that built America.
