About

You’ll likely enjoy this if you want an ambitious, character-focused look at early American spaceflight with humor, pressure, and patriotism; Not for you if you dislike long historical epics or choppy pacing—fans of Patton may feel at home.

Pros: inspiring space-race story; strong ensemble performances; tense training and missions | Cons: very long runtime; uneven pacing at times; assumes some prior knowledge
