The Times - Exceptionally powerful... the most genuinely uplifting experience you'll have in a cinema this year
Additional Information
America's quest to put a man on the moon, while both fascinating and inspiring, has been well covered on film, perhaps most notably in FROM THE EARTH TO THE MOON and APOLLO 13. Add to that a space program that by the early 2000s ranked near Abscam in terms of public interest, and it's easy to see why the documentary IN THE SHADOW OF THE MOON might be a tough sell. Yet this simple, stylish look at the Apollo space program is a quietly powerful rumination on the nature of patriotism, heroism, and humanity.
Director David Sington utilises a narrator-less structure that intercuts stunning stock footage with insightful commentary from the surviving astronauts who walked on the moon. There are no experts, no voiceovers, and no recreations. It's a style that works quite well, recalling the work of Errol Morris. While the space shots and the behind-the-scenes footage of NASA operations are fascinating, the astronauts--Buzz Aldrin, Dave Scott, and Alan Bean, among them--are a revelation. Variously witty, heartfelt, modest, and humbled when discussing their journeys into space, it's easy to understand why these men were heroes to a generation. Perhaps the most powerful aspect of this film is the way in which the viewer is reminded of how genuinely stunning the Apollo mission was for not only the United States, but the world. One need not be reminded that 1969 was a tumultuous year for Earth, and Neil Armstrong's famous one small step for man literally united the planet, giving true credence to the latter half of his famous statement. The movie posits that for one fleeting moment the world was together and at peace. IN THE SHADOW OF THE MOON expertly recreates that moment, without a shred of excess patriotism, pretence, or sentiment.

High level documentary film.
I can only review this movie as a DVD because the blu-ray version of this film would not play in my brand new(2013) panasonic 3D region B player!! in spite of the box stating it was region B/2... so I took it to a relative who had a new (2012) LG region B player and still no play!! I then tried I my neighbours playstation 3 and it played normally, why I still don't know? after some to and fro from the seller he agreed to do a full refund ( inc postage ) so no real problem..I will point out that the seller stated that the disk was both - region free - and also - region B/2 is this possible? - his onkyo amp shows it as playing back at 1080Px60 Hz which seems american to me?? This copy was to replace my DVD version. the movie it self is in the form of a documentary from several major players inc Edwin Buzz aldrin and other moon walkers who recount their personal experiences all to amazing video and music I just wish it was a little longer.Read full review
