Review by: SWITCH.

With so much crystal-clear recorded footage of the moon landing available, the story of ‘Apollo 11’ feels more like a time-travelling thriller and less like a conventional documentary. It’s a virtuoso feat of editing, and awe-inspiring in a way that rescues that phrase from cliché. We're not so much hearing what happened in the past as seeing it happen before our eyes. - Jake Watt Read Jake's full article... https://www.maketheswitch.com.au/article/review-apollo-11-a-transcendent-journey-to-the-moon Head to https://www.maketheswitch.com.au/sff for more Sydney Film Festival reviews.
