The documentary provides a testament to NASA's Apollo program of the 1960s and '70s. The score by Brian Eno underscores the strangeness, wonder, and and beauty of the astronauts' experiences, experiences which they were privileged to have for a first time 'for all mankind.'

For All Mankind is about what makes these men all the same...and, to some extent what makes us all the same: our infinitesimal smallness in the humbling vastness of the universe. [Blu-ray]

encapsulates with great power the wonderment of something that too many of us now take for granted

... not a documentary of an Apollo mission but the story man's odyssey to the moon...

It could be argued that the Apollo missions were essentially a big, expensive photo opportunity for the propaganda machine of the Cold War, but Reinert's film serves to remind us that they also redefined who, where and why we are.

If not the screen's ultimate portrait of space travel, For All Mankind remains a peerless planetarium show.

Visually stunning, For All Mankind bears repeated watching

Hipnótico ao trazer imagens absolutamente fabulosas de um (ou, a rigor, de vários) dos grandes momentos da História recente da Humanidade.

Apparently, grown men tend to act the same on the moon. One astronaut in mid-leap shouts "Ya-hoo!" If youre not smiling while you watch that, youve obviously never dreamed.
