Moon, Cowboy and "You"

For a sci-fi movie directed by an "old cowboy", it is not bad to have this level.

Smooth plot, neat narrative structure, standard Hollywood routines and Cold War core, moderate special effects and soundtrack.

In general, although there are quite a few loopholes in the plot, I can watch the four "old cowboys" whose average age is over seventy, in order to go to space and "slide away" from their own hands in order to be young. Dream while working hard again. Can you choose not to accept this kind of romance that belongs only to men?

As shown at the end of the film.

When you are old, life will come to an end, if it can be like Hawk Hawkins in the film.

In the vast universe, everything around is completely silent, looking up a little bit starry, and looking down is home.

Find a stone on the moon, lie down comfortably, and throw away all your worries. Looking, just watching, just quietly watching the beautiful and moving blue planet in front of me. There are people you love, and people who love you. You start to keep flashing your life in your mind, and you are grateful for everything you have ever had. What an exciting and beautiful picture that will be!

    The four old men are actually quite basic. . .

    Just finished reading. It’s a little sad to see the end, but maybe it’s a good ending. Hawke has cancer. It’s a blessing to be able to leave his last time in the space he has been waiting for for 40 years. It’s also a blessing to spend with friends. It’s a pity. It's just that he can't spend time with Sarah who has stayed on the land and has had a love with him. I really like the adventurous and entertaining spirit of the Americans. A few old men go to space and grow strong~ Finally, they are very touched by each other.
