Summary: History at its Dramatic Best
Review: This series does justice to the people who made the miraculous journey from the Earth to the Moon possible. My favorite episode is #5, called "Spider." It tells a story that could have been brutally boring...a bunch of nerdy engineers designing and building the Lunar Module. This little story will make you realize what a wonderfully human endeavor the Apollo flights were. Yes, yes, yes, you will laugh, you will cry, and the characters will become a part of you! Thank you Tom Hanks!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Incredible outlook on the apollo program
Review: This was the best miniseries i have ever seen. From the beginning of the first episode to the last astronauts name was listed i was held captivated by this brilliant display of the heroes in americas space program. My personal favorites were the ones that focused on the creation of the Lunar Excusion Module (LEM) and the episode that was dedicated to Apollo 12 with Dave Foley giving an excellent Ace Award worthy performance as Alan Bean. I highly recommend this for everyone.

Summary: I wished for a 5th DVD disk!
Review: DON't BUY IT! if you can not fulfill the following: 1. Have a second TV for the rest of the family. 2. Be late the next day at work 3. Have at least two jumbo packs of popcorn and 2 gallons of Coke. 4. Be able to stay without a blink all night long in front of the screen. 5. Be able not to go to the bathroom for 12 hours straight!

The first disk met my DVD at 18:30. I left the room 12 hours later wishing for a fifth disk! One of the greatest moments in the history of TV, the best of HBO. A must for every DVD collector. BTW It was the third time that I had seen it as the Greek cable already showed it twice!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Excellent - Well worth the money.
Review: Transfer was Excellent. Sound excellent. Content Excellent. If you liked the Right Stuff, I recomend this DVD.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Outstanding
Review: This series was great! I especially liked the portrayals of Wally Schirra, Niel Armstrong, Alan Shepard and Buzz Aldrin. The special effects were seamless, and the score couldn't be better. I thought the Apollo 13 segment was the low point in the series, and the maudlin Apollo 15 episode was a bit much. Other than that, bravo Mr. Hanks. He keeps reinforcing that 'national treasure" title he's benn given.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: ! Beyond Words Excelent!
Review: There is just no way to express the greatness of this series. Every Thing anyone would ever want to know was answered. Even in parts that were not as exciting there were true stories told and those were incredible. As far as adventures real or fake this one takes the top with the distance from the earth to the moon between second. If possible I would give this 7 or 8 stars five just doesn't do it justice

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Absolutely Fantastic! Awe Inspiring!
Review: I watched this series with my two children ages 3 and 6 and we were all mezmerized. It really captured the excitement of the era. I highly recommend From the Earth to the Moon as well as October Sky and Apollo 13.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Goose bumps! It gave me goose bumps!
Review: Captures the adventure and imagination of the times; and will make you yearn for a mission to Mars so you can feel what they must have in the 60's. Let's go to Mars America!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Excellent viewing for young and old
Review: This is great for family viewing. There is a great order to viewing these tapes. Watch tape one and two then watch the movie "October Skys" then watch tape three, four, five, and six.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Excellent portreal of America's most challenging adventure.
Review: 12 episodes telling the story of America's most challenging and courageous adventure. I will treasure this collection well into the future. Excellent source of information for children as well as adults who lived through these amazing years. I especially liked the Documentary/Movie format in the series. Not to mention all the special effects that make you feel as if you were there.
