      [Movie] 21024 [10.13] "Apollo 11"

      In 1903, the Wright brothers of the Americans flew into the blue sky for the first time in North Carolina, although the distance of the flight was only 36.5 meters; in 1969, the Americans Armstrong, Aldrin, and Collins boarded the Saturn 5 rocket in Houston Set off, flew to the moon 365,000 kilometers away, and successfully landed on the moon for the first time. In 66 years, the United States has increased the flight distance of humans by 10,000,000 times! ! ! ! !

      A memorable moment for all mankind

      Fifty years! That "a small step for me, a big step for mankind" has been in my heart for so many years, and I finally got a glimpse of it today. I am very happy. The skill of the film editing is too powerful, and all the precious moments are reproduced. This is a blessing for mankind. I didn't expect to finally see the true face after fifty years, and it was so high-definition perfect. I am willing to offer all my compliments.

      When will mankind truly leave the cradle of the earth? I...

      Tribute to the hero

      Basically all the video data and sound data are original and real content, which is amazing. Many of the content shot on film now seem to be really full of colors, very real, and contemporary. Let the audience feel very immersive, as if they were at the launch site in person, and as if they were actually at the Houston Space Center, talking with the astronauts from time to time. The most emotional thing is that this kind of task is really ugly, and it’s dangerous to play with your head on...

      Why take a risk, because it's there

      After the restoration of the 70mm large format, the dusty scene 50 years ago is like today. The material is precious and the quality is excellent. It can turn the expansion film into a movie. The editing is really like magic, and the soundtrack is even more icing on the cake.

      After watching it for a long time, I couldn't calm down, even though it had been 50 years ago, there were still tears in my eyes for a few moments. Compared with the present, in terms of the technology level,...

      Written fifty years later|The moon is still absent

      To Big Brother's lifelong enemy, the fruit picker of World War II, the creator of the Iron Curtain, the 20th Century Earth Police, the United States of America from the New World:
      You fell

      The story begins in the original dream-no-in the US-Soviet arms race after the iron curtain falls.

      Repair technology is really powerful. The material is sufficient and precious, and the soundtrack is well edited, which is slightly lower than expected. After all, this is my first choice for this SIFF. The roar and vibration of the IMAX firing feel like you're sitting on a rocket too? It looks like America is going backwards, in every way. #2021 SIFF. I read it all. The greasy audience on the right affects the viewing of the movie...

      Only three people watched the movie in the whole scene. A black uncle and white aunt, we walked to the door and they talked to me, "Oh my God, how old I was at that time. Makes me want to cry" time can go far, images will not go far, he is farther than...

The production team digitally...
