Conspiracy Theory: Did We Land on the Moon raises some serious questions about NASA's moon landings. Though many of the questions can easily be answered, some such as camera lens hash marks that are impossibly blocked by objects in photos are much harder to explain logically. Though objects left behind on the moon have since been photographed, somewhat squashing the conspiracy theory, some evidence still indicates things may have been edited or manipulated.

Did NASA and the U.S. government edit photographs and video? Most likely. Yet, at the time we were in a space race with the Soviet Union so it does make some sense that sensitive objects or actions that would give away secret information would have been manipulated to keep them from view. Regardless of truth, this is a very interesting documentary that takes a hard look at lunar landing evidence and asks some really interesting questions.

Narration and interviews were pretty good for a documentary.

Technical work was decent with plenty of archival film footage, photographs, and interviews.

Nothing here to limit audience age.
