About
You’ll likely enjoy this found-footage style conspiracy thriller if you like earnest “what if” takes on the moon landing idea, but Not for you if you dislike shaky handheld visuals or you want a consistently suspenseful, high-budget thriller like Europa Report or Salt.
Pros: era details; imaginative premise; tense mystery | Cons: shaky handheld overload; low-budget pacing; undecided tone
