First Man

It’s that sense of danger, ever present and palpable, that makes ‘First Man’ such a powerful and moving experience. By placing us within this family, by attaching us to this extraordinarily ordinary man’s life, and by locking us inside with him as he attempts the most impossible of human endeavours, it connects us with him and with this incredible moment in history on a deep and personal level. ‘First Man’ is a phenomenal achievement, a piece of pure cinema that reminds you of what the medium is capable of. I left the cinema giddy, shaking and still crying, elated at what a jaw-dropping and emotionally satisfying experience it was. As the credits rolled, I was already dying to see it again. This is a film that demands to be seen on the big screen (if you can see it at IMAX, you must, the moment the film switched formats is one of the best uses of the IMAX format I’ve ever seen). It will leave you marvelling at the ability of our species to dream, to invent, to strive and to survive. - Daniel Lammin Read Daniel's full article... https://www.maketheswitch.com.au/article/review-first-man-an-incredible-and-deeply-moving-journey-into-the-impossible
