    My review is the key to enjoying this very well done show!

    Imagine an amazing apple pie sitting on the dinner table. If someone described all the artificial ingredients, the food coloring, and the calories it contains, you're not likely enjoy it as much as if you just dove in imagining the main ingredient is "Grandma's love".

    If you're lucky enough to not have seen any spoilers about this film, if you know nothing about Apollo 18, you enjoy documentaries, and you think this is just another NASA or Apollo documentary, I highly recommend that you STOP READING REVIEWS and watch it! This film was meant to be one of those that you walk into without expectations and completely unspoiled.

    If the story is already spoiled for you, I'm sad for you. You'll probably only enjoy this 0-50% as much as it was intended. Those who rate it low are likely in the group that already had the main story spoiled for them. They're part of the population for whom this is NOT intended.

    entertaining

    this movie was shockingly good. Don Hannah as the main lead was throughly convincing as his character which only lead the movie to greater punchlines by the end. I was genuinely impressed with the filming and editing. This is a damn near perfect movie for the genre it plays in. cudos to you all

    Nonsense but fun nonsense.

    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

    Conspiracy. Documentary. Fiction.

    Interesting. I like the documentary aspect as it was handled very well by the director and the actors. When you are fully aware it's fiction but the film still holds your interest, that's good movie making. I was burnt about 15 minutes before the ending and wouldn't watch it again but it was worth the watch

    Omg. Another conspiracy movie

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