A Film Review by Paul Perkins

Space As You Never Seen It On The Big Imax Screen

.

Every kid dreams about be astronauts. Some fulfill their dreams and some like myself do not. But with the larger than life Imax screen you can see how astronauts survive in space for long periods of time.

It’s called Mission to Mir and it was film in space by the astronauts and it give us a unique look inside the Russia Space Station Mir. Which has been home for many astronauts since 1986. Mission to Mir shows us some historical footage of the crew, which includes Norm Thagard and Shannon Lucid the first two Americans to spend time on Mir. As well as Russian astronauts who guides us through such day-to-day activities as they shows us what it like to live in space. Get ready for an space experience you will never forget.

 Mission to Mir was not a bad film. It does show some great shots of space and when the rockets ship blast off you feel like you are right there.

The only problem with Mission to Mir is that even so I like it and other adults will also. The kids may not be into it too much. Because it has that PBS documentary type of feel to it. But to see it on the big Imax screen it worth it.

 Overall Mission to Mir was not a bad film it has some cool shots of earth and the way the astronauts live I could never do what they do but god bless them all. The movie shows you how it is to live on a space station. It is worth the price of admission to see it on the big Imax screen.
