tonyhaines-spp I highly recommend this movie for anyone, but if you are a NASA buff you will see footage that is rarely seen. As an avid NASA fan boy from the 60s it's difficult to show me shots I have not seen before. This movie did that well. I appreciate how they mixed the old footage into this modern retrospective. Instead of expanding the old 4:3 footage and exploding pixels they just let it be. The Last Man on the Moon is unique film because of the elements that are not in the movie as well. Not in the movie are the rehashed NASA film angles that we are all kinda done with. Another standard of NASA movies is the heroic main characters and astronauts. Most of the personal stories still known today were products of the NASA press office and Time magazine. This movie avoids those fictional narratives. I loved the way we get to know Gene Cernan the man. Here's a guy with many flaws but he was good enough to fly into space three times. The film makers took their sweet time telling his story from early childhood to now, an 82 year old grandfather. The sound track is excellent! The film uses a perfect mix of original and period music. I was there when Apollo 17 launched from pad 39a in 1972. It was my fourth time watching a Saturn 5 lift off. This one was different however. It was late at night, delayed a few times. When it finally took off the night turned into day, it made a fitting end to the Apollo story.

mikerosslaw One of the big reasons that NASA got their funding cut is that they never took full advantage of their own exclusive access to stunning space visuals to engage the American public, and keep them engaged. Sadly, like most inferior documentaries, "The Last Man on the Moon" relies far much too much on "talking heads," and it contains only a miserly few minutes of actual footage of Moon or even actual space exploration. I couldn't stand any more close-ups of old guys reminiscing about the good old days. I wanted to see more action footage of what they astronauts did, not hear about it. Also, the mawkish, nauseating sentimentality of pic forced me to turn it off fifteen minutes before it was over. MEMO TO THE PRODUCERS: HELLO?! IT'S A MOTION PICTURE! DON'T JUST TELL US. SHOW US!**You turned what could have been a spectacular visual odyssey into a saccharine soap opera. I couldn't care less what became of Mr. Cernan's marriage. I know that the astronauts were heroic, but you deprived us all of much of the priceless visual footage available showing exactly what made them heroes. You failed to exploit what must be an untapped veritable treasure chest of unseen space travel footage at NASA, and relied instead on the cliché of talking heads for filler. Boring.NASA has always been clueless about the value of providing comprehensive visuals to the public. We the public want to see NASA's stellar accomplishments. Had they understood the political and economic realities of governmental funding, NASA from the get-go would have created an entire division devoted exclusively to producing space exploration films for schools, TV, theaters, and yes, even for Congress, using breathtaking space exploration footage. This would have kept the program literally in the public eye with spectacular visuals of our nation's bold adventures, and it would doubtless have excited public support and fully justified with nonverbal eloquence the need for space exploration. Most people don't understand or care about tech-talk, but they fully appreciate breathtaking photos and true adventure motion pictures. NASA had a monopoly on the space exploration genre, but sat on the images instead of sharing them, say, in creating an ongoing series visually chronicling the heroic exploits of our space programs. No documentary has never have been successful relying on talking heads. It's a lazy, artless way to pad a treatment of an otherwise interesting and film-worthy idea. Walt Disney understood this and executed his timeless visual masterpieces in his marvelous "Disneyland" TV nature documentaries and theater productions as far back as the 1950s! Walt didn't lecture us; he showed us in stunning 35mm color motion pictures. You know, like NASA should have been dong for decades.In short, producers, YOU FAILED TO MAKE SPACE TRAVEL ITSELF THE STAR. Cosmically disappointing, and infinitely boring and overripe.**For an example of what I'm writing about, see my short nature documentary "The Underwater Wildlife of Big Sur" that I personally shot and produced at: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DtN0QCi2G2M

subxerogravity There is a documentary about the first man on the moon Neil Armstrong on Netflix. Eugene Cernan and Armstrong seem to live very similar lives. Makes since, cause it does take a certain type of man to be selected to walk on the moon. This doc is a little bit better. I'm equally a fan of any man that went to the moon, but while Armstong's was way more focus on him, Cernan's doc showed me more about how the space program was working back in those days. Cernan went more thoroughly into the selection process, the training, the hardships and the glory. It was a more full picture of what it's like to be an astronaut mixed in with personal info on the type of man Cernan is.Plus we got to see some insight on what's happening right now to get people to Mars, an event that Cernan himself was excited about.It was a good documentary on an icon. it's starts off slow but once it gets its foot into the rhythm, it takes you to the moon.

keithehoult I had the privilege of seeing this at its Premiere in the UK at Shefields DocFest last Summer. Being a child of the Apollo Space Program and witnessing the step by step progress on Mans conquest of the Moon I become easily emotional these days to any footage of that magical era. This Documentary is a well crafted piece of work and I concur with the sentiment of the previous viewer, so I won't say much more other than enjoyment is guaranteed. What really sealed it for me on the day I viewed it was that at the end of the screening Gene Cernan was ushered in from the back of the Auditorium to a standing ovation, and I at last got to meet a real genuine Space Cowboy after all these decades. It is mind bogglingly what these guys achieved and this film should be shown to all kids in Schools in a bid to inspire and educate them as to what can be achieved if one has the will to do it.
