All the efforts and billions of dollars spent to achieve the goal of surpassing the Soviet Union and humanity resulted in the first time humans set foot on the moon.
Astronaut, that's a holy name, but the movie doesn't tell us about his greatness, the movie focuses primarily on his family ties, and the moon landing somehow becomes secondary. His many serious accidents while flying have created a psychological shadow, and the experience has directly changed his role in the family. Pilots and astronauts are mysterious and longing careers for ordinary people, and his excessive obsession is that his family is cold or even facing collapse.
From another character, his wife is strong, she suppresses her emotions most of the time, and her loss is present throughout the process. It was surprising when she finally released her emotions. Her outburst and his demands are completely different from what we imagined. She is very calm, and it also reflects her loyalty to her family and her husband. There is no great support for her family's career, and she doesn't think that her family is obsessed with career. This shows that the success of the family has a lot to do with the attitudes of the family members. The humanized and decent family concept of the astronaut's wife shown in the movie is more human than the greatness of the military wife and police wife of the Chinese movie theme. Love means.
In order to achieve the goal of human beings, the male protagonist played by Commander High has been wandering psychologically between becoming an American hero and being a spouse and parent who is a lover in the family. That's exactly what happens in the film, where the thematic core is an inanimate exploration and pursuit on the one hand, and an emotional frustration that cannot be compensated by extraordinary technical achievement on the other. The film attempts to celebrate the success of the Gemini and Apollo programs while also being a character study of a man of few words.
The title of the movie somewhat exaggerates the content of the movie. There are not too many big scenes to describe the grandeur of the moon landing. The name of the movie deceived my expectations for this movie. Although the male protagonist's inner emotions were described with the help of the moon landing, and his heart was even touched by his experience, the sense of technology and visual effects that I originally thought were completely lost.
