Just a little creepy. Not a fan of the "camerawork"

Starts off slow, but in another's words, the beginning of the movie feels like the "calm before the storm". The lull of the first part of the film seems almost dull, but in the end, the movie seemed very artistic, especially with the "old footage" effects. A very good movie, but I wouldn't recommend it to those who get scared easily. This is a sci-fi space movie that gave me the chills and a case of paranoia after I finished. Scary. and very striking.

The understated and somewhat effective special effects are the only thing even remotely positive. There is no reason to watch this horrible Blair Witch in space. The idea that they tried to play this off as actual footage is enough to make me angry. Waste of my time and money.

It's a truism of writing about films that B-movies with A-level budgets have been a staple of the film business for damn near forty years now. In each and every iteration of the Lucas-Star Wars oeuvre is the face-plant that drives that point home. If it needed driving home. In light of that truism, consider the case of "Apollo 18." It is just so not much more than that, i.e., a B-movie with a budget in far in excess of its intentions. As such there is cause to consider the proposition that the ethically 'saving grace' of all of those old Fifties era 'the aliens are really the creeping Communist menace' movies was the fact that in with those B-level budgets there arose causes and opportunities for some simple 'nuts-and-bolts' filmmaking. As it stands now, the current generation is being treated to a glut of pigs dressed up with naught but a mere smear of lip-gloss. Maybe a tutu tossed in for some ill-considered effect or other. Trouble is it still doesn't make of them much more than a tarted-up pig. Ah, but then by the time this has been noticed, the audience have already served their final function, in that they parted company with their hard-earned dollars, so at least one party to this transaction did their part.

Horrible. Tried to film like a documentary, tried to pass it off as the truth, failed miserably. Special effects are laughable.
