Astronaut Eugene Cernan discusses his two missions to the moon and what he loved and lost in the process.

Critics Consensus

The Last Man on the Moon takes a justifiably reverent look at a largely unexplored chapter in the history of American space exploration -- and a side of astronaut's lives that's rarely considered.

A biographical tale that captures more than just the story.

The Last Man on the Moon is a compelling, artful and fantastically straight-faced documentary portrait of the now 82-year-old Eugene Cernan.

3/5

Craig's film deals with the fallout of the era - and how the returning heroes kept their feet on the ground - but he can't help but get swept up in the romance of the effort.

You know the history of the Apollo missions, but if a man who's been on the moon is telling you the story, you listen.

[The Last Man on the Moon] is humbling, poignant, hard-hitting, and emotionally charged, on top of being aesthetically rich and visually beautiful.

The background music was so loud I couldn't hear what anyone was saying. It could have been a great documentary honoring real heroes.

If you've ever seen "Space Cowboys", you'll realize pretty quickly that Gene Cernan is the guy Clint Eastwood's character was modeled after - except that Gene is smarter and more down-to-earth :-) My wife and I THOROUGHLY enjoyed this movie. On a side note, the movie does a very good job explaining how military spouses & families take a back-seat when duty calls (and calls, and calls), and how hard it can be to remain stateside/earthside during a mission...

That epic period narration is a must see for those guys that had not the privilege to live it.
