a seemed impossible task

The film is based on the real events of the former Soviet Union's Salyut-7 space station rescue in 1985.

The movie is simple, and the plot progress is also very stable. Bringing out true masculinity.

A big suspense left is, what is the light without a light source, and does it have any symbolic meaning? Later, I checked and found that it was something called the "Angel Incident". There are also Zhihu saying that it is just an artistic technique and has symbolic meaning. But maybe both, because the historical "angel incident" is not recorded in the rescue operation, and the two appearances in the film are after the protagonist is rescued. All in all, it's an understated luxury movie.

    I haven't watched the movie for a long time, and I saw a very pure space movie at a glance. The cost of 40 million yuan is small, but the effect is catching up with Hollywood, and the effect is amazing! Getting used to seeing the American space makes us forget another true line of human aerospace history. It is very satisfying to be able to see the Soviet astronauts active on the big screen.

    In fact, the play is still lazy. In order to continuously create difficulties and push the protagonist into a desperate situation, the space station can be saved by throwing and smashing the sensor after 1/3 of the film, and the astronauts smashed it without saying a word, leading to the last paragraph. Forced sensationalism and forced climax are really uncomfortable. The advantage of an adaptation of a true story is to let more people know that the Soviet Union was a group of people who created the pinnacle of aviation. A very genre-defying space disaster movie.
