Being...Neil Armstrong is one of those documentaries that really digs into the man behind the space suit. It's not just about the first moon landing; it captures this sense of isolation and reclusiveness that Armstrong embraced after his fame. The pacing can feel a bit slow at times, but it allows you to reflect on the weight of his legacy and the quietude of his life post-moon. Andrew Smith’s journey across America is as much about uncovering what makes Armstrong tick as it is about his historic achievements. The atmosphere is introspective, and the interviews feel genuine. What stands out is how it balances the grandeur of space exploration with the simplicity of the man. The practical effects are minimal, but they don't distract from the heart of the story.
