I'm looking forward to this biographical film when I see the name
My personal favorite is that the film chooses to tell from a personal point of view, combined with the rapid switching of shots, which makes each part of the mission and encounters an accident thrilling and particularly arresting, especially many details of the shots can reflect the characters' anxiety, tension and anxiety. This is an excellent job. On the contrary, the real process from the launch to the moon landing seems to be calm. The long shot of the lunar surface is calm, empty and beautiful. The whole process is like the psychological reaction of the characters, not excitement but huge pressure. After the task is completed, the past is relieved.
The film avoids a large number of main themes and political elements. It shows the influence of the pressure of public opinion on the characters and reflects people's thinking about the meaning of this moon landing. However, it is a pity that the emotional scenes with family members are not portrayed enough.
It can be seen that the film wants to express that Neil works hard to concentrate on his work. On the one hand, he is also trying to forget the pain of losing his daughter and avoid talking to his family about the mission. He doesn't want them to worry about leaving his daughter's bracelet after landing on the moon and saying goodbye to the past. It should be full of tenderness but actually watching the film The experience is not enough to make the audience into the play, but it looks like the characters are facialized. Neil is more like a working machine and family who are focused on the moon. The emotional scene is arranged only like going through the set, which makes the last moment of throwing the bracelet not powerful enough. The movie watching process also seems to be very difficult and worrying in the previous preparation process, but in the end, the most important part of the moon landing is emotionally relieved and a little discouraged. I think the script, if the script can portray the emotional part more intensely and more realistically, it will definitely save some emotions in the end. More moving to achieve sublimation
In general, the parts that have been done well are good, but the whole can definitely be done better. Unfortunately, it is impossible to remake this biography in the short term.
