Magnificent Desolation - Walking on the Moon (IMAX)
- In fame, the Sherlock Holmes to to Hubble's Avatar. In quality, the Avatar to Hubble's Sherlock Holmes.For all my reviews visit my website
I am NOT reviewing the DVD. Just the movies unless otherwise stated.
Please note that the rating above might not accurately reflect my thoughts, you will see a rating sentence at the end of the review.
Title Just roles off your tongue don't it?
Tom Hanks, yeah...man. Here we go how am I gonna explain how much I liked and didn't like it without getting arrested? I hated how they did not explain the conspiracy theories in there proper respects. They should have explained both sides. (Yeah, I believe the conspiracies.) What was great was how wonderful the 3-D was (as I stated in Hubble.) And the Imax, everything, helped take away the disbelief and had me entertained and moved throughout the movie. It was incredible. Just, not constiutional.
This movie, for a place that is nearly nothin, went into EXTREME (CHAMPIONSHIP WRESTLING) DETAIL! WOW! This thing goes to the lengths of all time to give you the great view of the moon. Not just that, but the honor and wonder that gave the ones who gave they're lives, living or dead, to space travel...beatiful. So they're you go. Naw, I still gots more to say.
Something annoying is that so many clips don't fit the Imax screen. I understand that they would be pixelated, BUT THOSE WERE TINY! Felt like I could be watching this on my home TV at times. At least be as big as a regular theater screen, and not the original aspect ratio of the 1970's clip!
So no more men on the moon eigh? WRONG! Neil Armstrong (still alive) was actually asked to go to the moon for the 40th anniversary. He obviously said no, and the mission was rescheduled, but it will happen IF IT IS REAL. We will see stuff on our TV trust me.
There's probably more to say, but it would probably be more repeats and ramblings.
The Rating? 3.6/5, because *sarcasm*I am a stubborn stupid conspiracy theorist*sarcasm*.
I, Da Ca$hman signing off.
Rating:
- Excellent ProductionPurchased this after seeing it on IMAX screen, though not the same effects, the production, as with al IMAX productions are top shelf in quality!!
Rating:
- Superficial, but maybe suitable for very young kidsI'm inclined to like anything that has to do with the space program, but I was very disappointed by this film. Technically it's well done, but it's basically just vapid propaganda that generates no sense of wonder or excitement, despite an attempt to pump up some synthetic suspense with a "what if something had gone wrong?" sequence. Maybe an eight-year-old would find this bit of fluff inspiring, but for anybody else, I recommend the truly superb "In the Shadow of the Moon," or the equally good "Apollo 13," or the "From the Earth to the Moon" HBO series.
Rating:
- LightweightI wouldn't even show this to kids. It's obvious that a lot of work went into it, but the results are insipid.
Watch "In the shadow of the moon" instead.
Rating:
- what if? (rhetorical question about Tom Hanks)What would happen if Tom Hanks refused to do another NASA film?Would he mysteriously disappear, or maybe die in a mysterious car accident?
At this point in his career and life, I think it is safe to assume that Tom Hanks is REQUIRED to help NASA perpetuate the Moon landing hoax.There is really no other explanation for why Tom Hanks continues to be involved in making movies about the moon landing hoax year in and year out.He can't possibly believe that men have walked on the Moon.
I would imagine that there is blackmail involved."NASA" probably has compromising photos of Tom Hanks.
Anyway, I haven't seen this film, but I doubt if it's any good.
Since I haven't seen the film, I feel that a three star rating is fair, and probably better than it deserves.
