Watch Hubble For Free

Fantastic!

if their story seems completely bonkers, almost like a feverish work of fiction, you ain't heard nothing yet.

Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.

Actress is magnificent and exudes a hypnotic screen presence in this affecting drama.

I found this to be a well made and interesting documentary with very good narration. It made good points about space.

This is a 44-minute documentary from five years ago on how the Hubble telescope was fixed. It's directed by Toni Myers, a man who has been working on scientific documentaries for several decades now. He also came up with the script with two other writers, three people maybe a bit much for under an hour. Also I was not too fond of the narration. The contents are sometimes way over the top and unnecessarily dramatic. The main reason why this documentary is maybe the most famous IMAX movie is because of who narrates it: Leonardo Di Caprio. However, I don't really think he is as good as narrator as an actor, even if he really gives his best. I did not really appreciate this documentary, maybe because I am off the opinion that we should first explore our own planet before digging deep into space. This way we could also avoid the unnecessary loss of lives like with the Columbia disaster, which is also referenced in here once. All in all, I have no real interest to watch these 44 minutes again and I don't really take away anything from it other than knowing that Israel Kamakawiwo'ole was a wonderful artist and his song "Over the Rainbow" is a masterpiece. Still, that is not enough, Not recommended.

This documentary recounts the space missions deployed to make and fix the giant space telescope that sends back to Earth countless stunning images of the Universe. I watched it in Imax 3D, and I can honestly say the visual effects are stunning. Forget about any other 3D films out there, this is by far the best. Every scene had amazing visual depth, and I felt as if I was right there, watching the space shuttle launches. The space scenes are amazing too, and I remember vividly s scene where an astronaut's gear dangling in space, so three dimensional and so real, as if I was watching the astronaut close up in real life. The scenes of celestial bodies are so beautiful, and I thought u was traveling in space. I was so entranced by the film. It's a must see.

First of: I saw this movie in Imax but not in 3D.If you are interested in understanding how Hubble operates, it's engineering, day-to-day duties of the astronauts or any kind of coherent study of how stars are born and die then this movie will disappoint you.The movie constantly errs on more emotional side, especially in presenting the astronauts. Some of the narration is also a bit too disingenuous - the crews going up the orbit are presented as some sort of breakthrough heroes doing something that had never been done before them - going into space. What the movie does offer is spectacular imagery of shuttle launches, Hubble itself, and it's "repair" and some light perusal into the astronauts lives in the orbit. You will also see some spectacular imagery Hubble was able to capture and some explanation of it.
