Top Critics Reviews

rotten:
Magnificent Desolation: Walking on the Moon is an earnest but insubstantial Imax 3-D spectacle that, even at 40 minutes, seems unduly padded.
– Joe Leydon,
Variety,

fresh:
The illusion is impressive but incomplete, and therefore mildly disappointing. But I cannot deny having felt a little nervous when 'we' were standing too close to the edge at the Grand Canyon-like Hadley Rille. So clearly I am a liar.

rotten:
One of the astronauts describes his excitement during the lunar mission as 'like a kid playing in a sandbox.' Unfortunately, that could also sum up the film's visual content.
– David Hiltbrand,

fresh:
Adults will be more than passably entertained by this short, patriotic feature, and kids will be entranced.

Playful, inspirational.
