The film omits a lot, omitting a lot of things that should have been shown about how aerospace technology has progressed and developed. Instead, the focus is on Armstrong's own mood, which instead more profoundly reflects the United States has paid for landing on the moon. How much, every astronaut who has sacrificed for this is honorable, every one of them is great.
The film shows more about Armstrong's mental journey, about the pain he endured, he experienced the death of his daughter, the death of his friends, and the incomprehension of the masses... In fact, he is just an ordinary person, and he will take his own life because of his daughter's misfortune. Locked in the room and cried bitterly (Commander High's crying scene really touched me), he was just a strong and brave ordinary person, which made him the first person to land on the moon.
The moon landing, although very thrilling, is very beautiful and very romantic because of the ethereal atmosphere of the soundtrack.
Many of the moon's empty shots are fantastic, and Armstrong's reminiscence of his time with his family when faced with the empty moon is also brilliant.
Armstrong threw his daughter's bracelet on the surface of the moon. He was finally able to shake hands with his past self and face the new future. At this moment, the moon was no longer just an empty moon, full of Armstrong's thoughts for his daughter. , this is only a small step for him personally, how much suffering he has gone through, how much pressure he has endured, but it was all worth it at that moment, so when people look up to the moon, the name of Armstrong will always echo in people heart.
This film does not focus on the political significance behind the time of the moon landing, nor does it reflect any major themes such as country I was in tears for an Armstrong biopic, but it really touched me.
ps I would like to selfishly praise Commander Gosling's eyelashes, they are too long! !
