About This Movie

Salyut-7 offers a gripping look into a lesser-known moment of space history. The film captures the tense atmosphere of the Soviet space program in the 80s, blending action with genuine human drama. The pacing is quite methodical, which actually adds to the tension as the cosmonauts face a life-or-death situation. The performances by the leads, especially the portrayal of camaraderie and resilience, stand out without feeling overdramatic. Practical effects are commendable—there’s a sense of authenticity in the visuals that transport you back to that era. It’s not your conventional space adventure; it’s more about the human spirit, problem-solving under pressure, and the drive to revive something that seemed lost in the void.
