On July 20, 1969, Neil Armstrong aboard the Apollo 11 spacecraft successfully landed on the moon, taking a step of great significance to mankind. At the same time, landing on the moon became the dream of every astronaut in that era. Three A month later, Jim took the Apollo 13 spacecraft to start another trip to the moon as the commander, but this space trip eventually turned into a rescue back to Earth.

Apollo 13 exploded when it was about to reach the moon, the mission was terminated, and finally successfully returned to the earth with the lunar module. The cause of the accident was a short circuit caused by a design flaw two years ago. Acquired from the valuable experience accumulated in the accident and bloodshed, the calmness of the astronauts in the event of an emergency and the rescue of the ground command center are touching, overcoming one impossibility and finally returning to the earth.

Three minutes after the return capsule entered the atmosphere, the communication was interrupted, and the calls were not answered again and again. In the end, three huge orange-red parachutes appeared over the South Pacific. At that moment, they were so moved that they won the bet. This is also a time in the history of human spaceflight. Progress.

The movie is more of an objective record, restoring this great space rescue event.

I watched several films about space recently. Whether it is a successful progress or a failed experience, space exploration is undoubtedly the craziest project in human scientific research. It represents risk, unknown, progress, and leads the progress of many basic sciences. Thank you to such a group of astronauts and technicians who are crazy and willing to sacrifice.

    I didn't expect this film to be so blind, it took a long time to tell who is who. This is a very good subject, but a very bad film. Many plain dialogues, coupled with slow plots, even if the real scene is restored, should not be so expressive. This is a movie, not a documentary. To be too documentary requires some rendering of the plot such as music, but this film is just plain, and it is not enough to rely on the thrills of dangerous moments to attract people.

    20190617@天山重看, I was impressed by the jelly at the beginning of the movie, and I couldn't help but want to go to the bathroom. The main theme is not to make people think that it is not easy to shoot well. The greatest and most successful failure, before the launch Fortunately, I got the best card in a bunch of bad cards. The smallness of people and the greatness of people coexist. Even in the face of difficulties and obstacles, the exploration journey will never stop. Many of the copied language of the lens is compared to whether it is successful or not. When landing on the moon, I care more about doing my best to make all the astronauts come back alive. There are countless familiar faces that will be on fire in the future. Come on, fly, come on mankind.
