Apollo 18

I was nearly put off seeing it by some of the reviews here.

SO I thought twice about seeing it, however I like sci-fi so had to watch.

The plot is well covered in other reviews.

Yes the style is different but it is in keeping with the moon landing and pictures taken at the time. Its all filmed as though done through the hand-held moon cameras.

Some reviews said actors were wooden but that is the whole point, they are supposed to be normal people (well as normal as any astronauts ) can be.

The test for me is :-

Would I watch it again, yes

Okay here is what u need to know about this movie. Not worth paying for at the movies. If I had to sit in a theater for this I'd be mad but at home OK. BUT worth it for Pay per view or to rent. If you liked Blair witch and like science fiction, you will like, not love, this. If you're older and hate Blair witch, the nostalgia of the moon landings will carry you thru. pretty good movie tho not great.

my goal is to give reviews that let u know what your in for, not nitpick and discuss film techniques,directors, or show my "expertise" in film making. just tell ya if it's a stinker or not.

and to make my minimum ten lines it's good not great. time killer but worth watching.

OK but not great. The overall concept isn't that original - sort of The Blair Witch Project on the Moon. The plot itself is original, but relatively predictable.

While the direction gives the movie a realistic feel, it can be a bit irritating at times. The jagged, broken photography is jarring on occasion.

Performances are OK.

Today (Sunday, Sept. 4), I was contemplating going to see Apollo 18. But first I read the reviews here. Upon seeing so many negative ones and so few positive ones, I knew I wanted to see it for sure since I liked The Blair Witch Project and both Paranormal Activity movies. That being said, it was just about what I expected and I liked it a lot. It could have been better, but I wasn't disappointed. I thought the cast was very good. So if you liked previous "found or leaked footage" movies such as Blair Witch Project or the Paranormal Activity movies, don't miss this one! If you're not sure, wait until it comes out on DVD and rent it at Redbox for $1. It's worth a lot more than that!

I went to a private screening, not expecting much. It was one of those "found footage" films like the Blair witch project and Paranormal Activity.

I was expecting to be bored, but honestly after each passing minute in the film, it just got even more terrifying. Let me just tell you, this movie isn't just jump scenes, it's about the tension, and it delivers very effective shock and fright in some parts. It gets to the point where you are happy you're on earth. (Even though it's obviously fake).

I am very impressed with this film, I will rank it in my top 10 films of all time. And I'm not much of a horror movie goer. I recommend it.

10/10
