Jim Pagiamtzis review
Ryan Gosling teams up with Director Damien Chazelle (La La Land) to bring you the story on the journey that Neil Armstrong went to land on the moon.
It was challenge to his family, friends and lesson he learned along the way. There were setbacks, and tough times that Neil went through yet his vision to land on the moon was bent but not broken.
It was awesome experience to have the feeling in being in the capsule and feeling the anxiety and fear of the engines blast off!
On the heels of their six-time Academy Award®-winning smash, La La
Land, Oscar®-winning director Damien Chazelle and star Ryan Gosling
reteam for Universal Pictures’ First Man, the riveting story of NASA’s
mission to land a man on the moon, focusing on Neil Armstrong and the
years 1961-1969.
A visceral, first-person account,
based on the book by James R. Hansen, the movie will explore the
sacrifices and the cost—on Armstrong and on the nation—of one of the
most dangerous missions in history.
Written by Academy Award® winner
Josh Singer (Spotlight), the drama is produced by Wyck Godfrey &
Marty Bowen (The Twilight Saga, The Fault in Our Stars) through their
Temple Hill Entertainment banner, alongside Chazelle and Gosling. Isaac
Klausner (The Fault in Our Stars) executive produces. DreamWorks
Pictures co-finances the film.

About film.
The path to paradise begins in hell. Ridley Scott returns to the universe he created, with ALIEN: COVENANT, a new chapter in his groundbreaking ALIEN franchise. The crew of the colony ship Covenant, bound for a remote planet on the far side of the galaxy, discovers what they think is an uncharted paradise, but is actually a dark, dangerous world. When they uncover a threat beyond their imagination, they must attempt a harrowing escape.
" When I saw the preview few months back it looked very interesting and added to the list of movies to watch in 2016. The anticipation was growing when I got to theatre and the movie started. before I share my insights I want to share on some other movies that I come out in recent year that involve space exploration.
Event Horizon (1997) Martian (2015) Mission to Mars(2002) and Castaway (2000) all of these films have a common there of space and time spent alone.
Now back to the movie. It was great story the only thing I didn't like is it took to long to explain! Building character back story is important but something when it's overdone it takes away from the movie, found myself saying "Hurry up already!" multiple times!!!
As it finally reached the climax everything gets explained and tied together for a great ending. Shaving off 20 minutes would have helps. Performances were great Michael Sheen as Arthur was witty performance with some great lines throughout the movie. Having only very few character made it very interested to ask myself, What would I do if I was in the situation?
My final review its great film to watch and enjoy the cinematic pleasure of space and what humanity may look like years from now travelling to new worlds rating 7 out of 10"
It was great movie to watch to end Work Hard Play Harder Toronto 2016 movie group.Look forward to next year movie lineup. Wi

Good: Made you feel like you were on the space station with the characters Bad - story & plot should have utilized more characters UGLY - Some of the CGI in space was horribly done
