Anyone seen Apollo 18? Just wondering if it's worth my time or not.

    What I've heard is you should just watch it online.

    They changed it in the movie so everybody dies instead of living. Pretty loose silver screen adaptation of historical fact. Tom Hanks gets left on the moon and the others in the capsule crash into Mt. Rushmore on re-entry.

    You're thinking of Space Cowboys.

    Well, in the original apollo 18 mission everyone survived because it was CANCELED. In this one they all go to the moon and get murdered by space monsters with teen slasher aspirations.

    Does this movie explain where NASA got the extra rocket for SkyLab?

    How 'bout them space nazis then? (Those zeppelin 'flying saucer carriers' are brilliant)

    i still do not understand how the film material possibly could have been retrieved after that ending... this movie has quite alot of plot holes, but the movie set and props were top even with that small consulting role nasa took in this movie. but no one told them that it would have been impossible to land on the poles since the craft could not hold enough fuel to get into such an orbit around the moon

    and thumbs up for iron sky, right now they are working on all the cgi stuff after filming got completed not long ago
