Joe Russo and Anthony Russo, directors of The Gray Man and the Captain America and Avengers movies, explain what filmmaking elements they used to capture the essence of the film’s action, humor, and Chris Evans vs. Ryan Gosling star power in a short trailer.
Ryan Gosling is THE GRAY MAN and Chris Evans is his psychopathic adversary in the Netflix/AGBO spy thriller directed by Anthony and Joe Russo.
Also starring Ana de Armas, with Regé-Jean Page, Billy Bob Thornton, Jessica Henwick, Dhanush, Wagner Moura and Alfre Woodard. Based on the novel The Gray Man by Mark Greaney, the screenplay is by Joe Russo, Christopher Markus and Stephen McFeely.
THE GRAY MAN is CIA operative Court Gentry (Ryan Gosling), aka, Sierra Six. Plucked from a federal penitentiary and recruited by his handler, Donald Fitzroy (Billy Bob Thornton), Gentry was once a highly-skilled, Agency-sanctioned merchant of death. But now the tables have turned and Six is the target, hunted across the globe by Lloyd Hansen (Chris Evans), a former cohort at the CIA, who will stop at nothing to take him out. Agent Dani Miranda (Ana de Armas) has his back. He’ll need it.
“I’m letting life hit me until it gets tired. Then I’ll hit back. It’s a classic rope-a-dope.”

Coming off of the jovial and colorful burst of life that is LA LA LAND, it’s surprising that Damien Chazelle takes audiences on quite a grim journey. FIRST MAN feels less like a patriotic, proud moment in American history and more like an exploration of paralyzing and dreadful fear. It’s the fear of what we can’t control in life. The audience may fear for the man in the pilot seat, but it’s the man who fears for his lack of control outside of the pilot seat.
Based on the book by James R. Hansen, FIRST MAN explores the sacrifices that Neil Armstrong (Ryan Gosling) put himself, his wife Janet (Claire Foy), and kids through as he helps NASA achieve their ultimate goal: Be the first country to land a man on the moon. In the process, the engineer-turned-astronaut cheats death several times (as seen in the nail-biting opening scene while flying an X-15), butts heads with the outspoken Buzz Aldrin (Corey Stoll), and witnesses friends and family taken from his life.
It becomes immediately apparent that conveying the physical nature of NASA’s trials and tribulations leading to the Apollo 11 mission is the film’s main mission. Chazelle seems to take pleasure in showing the physical demands of the job and presents it as a rather thankless one at that. Immersive sound design and stark visual storytelling truly make it feel like you are in the front seat going full-speed into a galactic horror film. It’s a long, loud, and very bleak journey into the unknown.
Claire Foy (The Crown) is the wife and mother at home who has to force a calm and collected composure as her husband hurdles himself forward into the brink of death. Without the help of much dialogue, Foy is left to convey her inner turmoil through her emotive eyes. Almost ironically, considering the wide-open expanse of space, Chazelle and cinematographer Linus Sandgren shoot mostly in close-up, making the faces seem larger than life – often quite blurry, as well, when the men are strapped in. It’s an effective storytelling device even though it becomes a bit tiresome.
Ryan Gosling and the script by Josh Singer portray Neil Armstrong as someone who can solve last-minute calculations within seconds, and yet, struggles with communicating with his wife and children. Working with a bare-bones script, Gosling attempts to present a man who is simply putting his head down and moving full-steam ahead. His typical puppy-dog eyes become unblinking headlights, illuminating the way towards NASA’s goal. However, Gosling feels less like a blue-collar worker getting the job done at all costs and more like an empty straw man – perhaps a symbol for how Chazelle truly feels about the mission.
FIRST MAN is eager to point out that the moon landing is only a happy story in our minds because we like to remember it as a grand achievement in American History. In one scene, Gil Scott-Heron’s song of racial inequality, ‘Whitey on the Moon,” is even juxtaposed with imagery of NASA prepping for the big liftoff. The “Space Race” is presented in a tragic way as opposed to a triumph. Nothing says this more than the final shots of the film. At what cost do we push ourselves for our own professional endeavors? While Neil Armstrong might have represented “One giant leap for mankind,” Chazelle questions if the journey was worth the man losing his humanity.
Overall score: 3.5 out of 5
FIRST MAN opens in theaters everywhere Friday, Oct. 12th, 2018
On the heels of their six-time Academy Award®-winning smash, La La Land, Oscar®-winning director Damien Chazelle and star Ryan Gosling reteam for Universal Pictures’ First Man, the riveting story behind the first manned mission to the moon, focusing on Neil Armstrong and the decade leading to the historic Apollo 11 flight.

Written by Academy Award® winner Josh Singer (Spotlight, The Post), the epic drama of leading under the pressure of grace and tragedy is produced by Wyck Godfrey & Marty Bowen (The Twilight Saga, The Fault in Our Stars) through their Temple Hill Entertainment banner, alongside Isaac Klausner (Love, Simon) and Chazelle. Steven Spielberg, Adam Merims and Singer executive produce, while DreamWorks Pictures co-finances the film.

On the heels of their six-time Academy Award®-winning smash, LA LA LAND, Oscar-winning director Damien Chazelle and star Ryan Gosling reteam for Universal Pictures’ FIRST MAN, the riveting story of NASA’s mission to land a man on the moon, focusing on Neil Armstrong and the years 1961-1969.
A visceral, first-person account, based on the book by James R. Hansen, the movie will explore the sacrifices and the cost-on Armstrong and on the nation-of one of the most dangerous missions in history.
The film stars Ryan Gosling, Claire Foy, Jason Clarke, Kyle Chandler, Patrick Fugit, Ciaran Hinds, Ethan Embry, Shea Whigham, Corey Stoll, Pablo Schreiber.
2019 will witness the 50th anniversary of the first Moon landing.
From October 2018 through December 2022, NASA will mark the 50th anniversary of the Apollo Program that landed a dozen Americans on the moon between July 1969 and December 1972. Recently NASA unveiled an official logo to observe these milestone anniversaries at the Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts in Washington.
The Apollo program and the Saturn V rocket – it is still mankind’s finest achievement and we’ll never create anything as magnificent as that ever again.
The Saturn V was developed at NASA’s Marshall Space Flight Center in Huntsville, Ala. It was one of three types of Saturn rockets NASA built. Two smaller rockets, the Saturn I (1) and IB (1b), were used to launch humans into Earth orbit. The Saturn V sent them beyond Earth orbit to the moon. Five F-1 engines were used in the 138-foot-tall S-IC, or first stage, of each Saturn V, which depended on the five-engine cluster for the 7.5 million pounds of thrust needed to lift it from the launch pad. The mighty F-1 remains the most powerful American liquid-fuel rocket engine ever developed. The F-1 still holds the record as the largest single-chamber, single-nozzle liquid fuel engine ever flown.
Yes, there will be other missions to the Moon and eventually to Mars (Orion rockets), but the ships that take people there won’t be as glorious as the mighty Saturn V rockets.
Apollo 11 launched from Cape Kennedy on July 16, 1969, carrying Commander Neil Armstrong, Command Module Pilot Michael Collins and Lunar Module Pilot Edwin “Buzz” Aldrin into an initial Earth-orbit of 114 by 116 miles.
While astronauts Armstrong and Aldrin descended in the Lunar Module “Eagle” to explore the Sea of Tranquility region of the moon, astronaut Collins remained with the Command and Service Modules “Columbia” in lunar orbit.
An estimated 530 million people watched Armstrong’s televised image and heard his voice describe the event as he took “…one small step for a man, one giant leap for mankind” on July 20, 1969.
It’s time for another motion picture to remind audiences of the massive feats people once ventured to and accomplished. The Mercury, Gemini, and Apollo missions were the days of brave heroes.
The exciting and thrilling trailer for FIRST MAN makes the upcoming movie a must-see in IMAX.
To director Damien Chazelle, in order to honor these explorers I respectfully recommend:
1. In the opening sequence, the trailer shows a Saturn V taking off. Those rockets took off very slowly, and the exhaust flame was very narrow and long. What they have done with the trailer is edit in the exhaust of a space shuttle with a much faster take-off, and the exhaust is fanning out wide with lots of smoke. That’s what was fun about watching an Apollo launch – the dramatic slow take off and then it really started picking up speed as it broke through the atmosphere into outer space.
2. As for how this trailer is cut, it shows a lot of scenes about Armstrong’s Gemini flight (which is true). At about the 1:46 mark of this trailer, they start a 6 second countdown, with all the scenery revolving around a Gemini capsule (those scenes looked good), then they say ‘liftoff’, and you see the 5 rocket engines of the 1st stage of the Saturn V roaring, not the two engines of the Titan rocket that launched all of the Gemini’s. If they meant for all of that to be coherent, it wasn’t. If they just want to show random scenes, they could get away with it since it is a trailer, but it will not fly with NASA/Apollo enthusiasts.
3. This first look at the film shows Armstrong flying the X-15. (The pen floating next to him.) The Gemini 8 mission is the flight he took with Dave Scott (who commanded Apollo 15), and the two of them very realistically could have died when some steering thrusters on the capsule did not turn off, and the spacecraft started spinning dangerously fast, to the point where they could have passed out. Neil stayed cool and got things quickly under control, but the mission had to abort immediately after that. The Gemini scenes looked good. The spacesuits looked authentic, so kudos to getting this right.
There are going to be plenty of potential scenes where the music will really add to the experience: around the X-15, the Gemini launch/crisis/splashdown, and of course Apollo 11 launch, lunar landing, liftoff from the moon, splashdown. I’m really looking forward to what Oscar winning composer Justin Hurwitz has in store with his score.
The first trailer for Christopher Nolan’s INTERSTELLAR was masterfully and thoughtfully cut.
“These moments when we dared to aim higher. To break barriers. To reach for the stars.”
Filled with footage of Chuck Yeager’s Bell X-1, the Mercury and Gemini space capsule missions, the Saturn V rocket liftoff to the Moon with the Apollo missions, and the Space Shuttle Atlantis, this superb first trailer really brings home the fact that at one time America’s Space Program was envied and unrivaled. It’s chilling to think that we may never again see the likes of when we made frequent trips to the Moon. There was a time when we had the determination, ability and huge national pride of travelling to our nearest celestial neighbor.
Matthew McConaughey speaks the truth in his voice over – “We lost all that. Perhaps we’ve just forgotten. That we are still Pioneers – we’ve barely begun and that our greatest accomplishments cannot be behind us. Our destiny lies above us”
An additional note: Ron Howard went to great lengths to get things right on APOLLO 13. See the movie launch and the real launch below.
I hope FIRST MAN does the same thing, and just doesn’t edit in stock footage or re-creations of just random footage. Just a few suggestions for a film that has an awards season, October 12, release date.

BLADE RUNNER 2049, director Denis Villeneuve’s sequel to Ridley Scott’s BLADE RUNNER, is a visual feast, a cinematic banquet that is much in the style and spirit of the original. For that reason alone, it deserves to be seen on the biggest screen, with the best sound, you can find. This is a film worth the effort to see it as it should be seen, but particularly if you are one of the many fans of the first film.
Fans of the original BLADE RUNNER need not fear this sequel. As one of many filmmakers who were smitten with and influenced by Ridley Scott’s ground-breaking film, French Canadian director Denis Villeneuve’s intention clearly is to honor the original BLADE RUNNER. So, no, this is no crass cash-in film. Villeneuve offers a film that is respectful of, and in the same spirit as, the first film, an homage that takes us back to the eye-popping, innovative world Ridley Scott created but then builds on it. BLADE RUNNER did not really need a sequel, of course, but the decision to make a sequel is a far better choice than a re-make. Villeneuve’s other films include SICARIO, PRISONERS, ARRIVAL, and INCENDIES, so taut, thought-provoking films are entirely in his wheelhouse.
The original BLADE RUNNER was a modest success at the box office when first released but grew into a huge hit on video, and became a film that influenced a generation of upcoming filmmakers. The plot had only the slightest resemblance to the Philip K. Dick science fiction novel on which it was supposed to be based, but the film did capture the brooding mood, moral complexity, and dystopian world of the novel. But it was the film’s visual innovation that most stuck with audiences.
BLADE RUNNER 2049 returns to the world Ridley Scott created but 30 years into its future. Thirty years on, life is even worst for those left behind on an environmentally-devastated Earth. People scrambling to survive still envy those with enough money to relocate to off-world colonies, the few wealthy industrialists still on Earth exist apart in modern fortresses high above, and LAPD is still using blade runners to track down and dispatch the remaining older model biological robots called “replicants,” who manage to make their way back to Earth. Agent K (Ryan Gosling) is one of those blade runners, on the track of one replicant, Sapper Morton (Dave Batista), when he makes an odd discovery at the site where he had been hiding. The discovery alarms his boss who sends K on a mission that will lead him to the long-vanished blade runner Deckard (Harrison Ford).
K has the backing of his hard-bitten supervisor Lt. Joshi, played with style by Robin Wright. The mission will involved K with billionaire industrialist Niander Wallace (Jared Leto), the blind maker of the current, more controllable version of replicants, and his relentless robot assistant Luv (Sylvia Hoeks), as well as a host of people and replicants in the most shadowy parts of the devastated world.
Like the original, the sequel is more moody mystery than an action thriller. The cast is good, and both they and Ryan Gosling deliver strong performances that make the film all the more haunting. The film is packed with literary and cinema references, as well as commentary on our present world. One scene feels straight out of Dickens, where an army of ragged urchins live in an abandoned factory in the toxic zone, combing through the trash for salvageable materials, under the stern eye of a futuristic Fagan.
Still, the biggest reason to see this film is the astounding cinematic experience. BLADE RUNNER 2049 is a feast for those who love the visual and aural artistry that cinema can achieve, and Villeneuve has the skills to give us this immersive experience. The film successfully evokes the look and feel, even the sound, of the original film, with the noirish half-lit scenes, futuristic landscapes mixed with globalized urban decay, and an eerie techno sound track, yet it never simply apes the first one. There is always something more, in every shot.
The world director Villeneuve creates for us is very much in to same universe of the first BLADE RUNNER but we are given it on a more grand, more detailed scale, as well as in a future that has had 30 more years of decay. It is both beautiful and ugly, horrifying and breathtaking. An enormous seawall protects Los Angeles from the Pacific Ocean, the air is thick and an acrid yellow, and a toxic dump stretches from LA south to San Diego. The same jumble of grubby back alleys, garish neon, mixed languages, slick corporate ads and rough street vendors contrasted against the dark, stark modern architecture of inaccessible corporate headquarters abounds. Apart from a few wealthy souls insulated in high-rise guarded compounds, everyone else is struggling to get by in a world that is clearly disintegrating. The police may move around in flying cars yet K lives in a cramped apartment in a crime-filled, graffiti-festooned neighborhood, an apartment that nonetheless has amenities such as a holographic woman to greet him and serve dinner.
The cinematic delights, the abundant literary and film references, thoughtful social commentary and fine acting performances in BLADE RUNNER 2049 will be enough to satisfy many audiences. However, some may feel that the story moves a bit slowly and, at about two and a half hours, runs a bit long.
Still, for fans of the original BLADE RUNNER or those up for a cinematic feast, Villeneuve’s sequel is a must-see. Just be sure to see it on the biggest screen, and sit back, relax, and drink in all the cinematic splendor without wanting to hurry to the end.
