The Landing

This was bad from the start. The play acting, the photoshopping of the images, it was all just bad. I suppose after you see the real thing, a recreation will never be any good.

The faux documentary "The Landing" does a pretty credible job of presenting a fictitious fable of conspiracy and tragedy haunting an Apollo 18 manned mission to the Moon that never was.

The overall quality of the production along with the acting are uniformly quite good here. But when the denouement lands us where it certainly seems to as an audience, I have a hunch you'll be joining me in a scoffing chorus of, "Come ON, maaan."

And they say women don't have The Power.

Got to the end and wondered why.... Why I got all the way to the end....

This would be eligible for consideration IF Apollo 18 was a real mission!

Because this whole movie is FICTION, it serves only to confuse those interested in the Apollo program. People don't often do their own research, and those that don't could believe this story.

It only serves as a stunt to fool a viewer who either lacks the existing knowledge or the curiosity and intellectual fortitude to research. In both cases, it ceases to be entertaining.

It IS well-acted and is executed in a very convincing manner-making it all-the-more dangerous a weapon of misinformation in an age where it rampant.

I like movies like this or should I say I liked movies like this that was until people started to think a movie just like this was real. Capricorn 1 or one I'm not sure witch was the film that made the fake moon landing explode. Sure some people immediately after they noticed things that have absolutely been explained were always around but that movie is supposed to be someone within NASA way of exposing the conspiracy but it's as much fiction as Stones piece of garbage JFK. If you like alternate history books or movies you will like this. I do have a huge problem with one thing and its my only complaint. You need to hold onto your remote because nearly every time they show stills of the moon the or the astronauts and music plays it is very loud but the loudest is around the 8:30 minute mark when you reach that point you will have to turn you way down or you will wake the dead then when the music is over at about 9:30 you need to turn it up some but when you see a slide that says "the Return of Apollo18 it's almost silent so if you don't want to rewind turn it up but then keep that remote in your hand because the horrible sound mixing continues through out. I realize this sounds odd but you will thank when it happens. That it's entertaining but horrible horrible sound mixing
