For some, the “Flag-Free” aspect of this movie won’t matter.
To me, it matters a great deal. I was determined to see it before I heard there would be no acknowledgement of this as an American Mission. I’m disappointed at this attempt to ‘annul and neuter’ an historic event. Maybe I’ll see it, and maybe I won’t.
Right there with you!
There is only ONE country's flag on the moon....and that's the USA's!!!!
It's one of the reasons we went to the moon....to beat the Ruskies in the Space Race.
I was determined to see it before I heard there would be no acknowledgement of this as an American Mission.
I didn't like the trailer for the movie. To me it seemed very negative.
Now that I read about the flag incident I WILL NOT be seeing the flick.
I very much enjoyed Apollo 13 as it emphasized the can-do spirit of the Space program of the 60s/early 70s. Ron Howard did a pretty good job of capturing that patriotism...for a Lefty that is.
Maybe I’ll see it, and maybe I won’t.
I will watch The Right Stuff again instead of this new pile of leftist America hating trash.
